Angus, Sunshine's Mommy


Most kittens are raised by cats. Not Sunshine. Kerrigan(you will learn more about him later) was on a date and as they were walking around on their date- they heard a tiny "meow" coming from a trash can. They started digging in the trash and there he was- a tiny, tiny kitten- and they did looked for other kittens and found none- just this tiny thing. They went straight to the ER vet. The vet said that IF they fed and rubbed his tiny tummy every three hours he might live. So...Kerrigan brought him home to me. And Angus- Austin's (you will learn more about him later) teacup Newfoundlander.
Angus fell in love with his baby kitten. Now, Sunshine was so tiny his eyes were barely opened and his ears were flat. But, me and Angus "rubbed" that baby kitten to life! I still have his baby kitty bottle- we used kitten formula from the pet store- Petsmart-The odds were against us- but with all that "rubbing" - the ten pound kitty-artist lives to create everyday.
