A concerned community member heard cries coming from an alley and discovered a gray tabby hiding in a pile of logs. The kitten had wedged itself into the pile and refused to come out.
The finder began leaving out food in hopes of luring the kitten out of hiding. She remained hidden and only ventured far enough to eat.
The kitten cried for her mother for four days, but her mother never returned. The finder reached out to his community for help in bringing the little one to safety.

“Two of our volunteers, Haley and Sarah, saw the post in a neighborhood Facebook group and immediately went to help,” Thrifted Kittens Animal Rescue shared with Love Meow.
“Thankfully they were able to move the tree and bring the little kitten to safety.”

Once freed from its predicament, the kitten changed almost instantly.
She found comfort in the arms of her rescuers, leaning into their hands as they gently caressed her. After days of living in fear, her crying stopped as she absorbed the affection she had longed for.

“The kitten is understandably terrified after the ordeal. She will never be cold or hungry again.”
They put her under their jacket to keep her warm and calm. The kitten melted into their embrace, her fear gone. Volunteers quickly secured a foster home, giving her a safe place to start over.

Within days the kitten, named Friday, emerged from its shell and really thrived. She was delighted to have food available all day, lots of toys to throw and fight with, a cat tree to scale and the company of her human and furry friends.
She filled out quickly, her fur became soft and shiny, and her energy level increased.

Friday enjoys playing “tetherball” at the cat post and constantly amuses his people with his silly antics. She is fascinated by the clock on the table and watches the hands move as if she is on a mission.
When they saw how much she blossomed in her foster home, they were sure that the perfect family would soon find her.
