:: falling for you ::

it always breaks my heart to read and watch documentaries on animal rescues. many times i wish i could do something, and today, i had a tiny yet humongous experience on the way to church...

tiny 7-weeks old siamese kittens somehow ended up in a big drain and they were crying for help as they struggled with water up to their necks and against the mass of black and green drain goo. a friend helped and was a hero to have gotten into the drain and gently brought them out.

here they are after a quick make-shift shower in a sink and dish washing liquid.

after a quick shower

after a meal of warm condensed milk and some play time, they needed to sleep.

after drinking milk, time for a well deserved nap

my family can't afford to take adopt them, nor could so many others whom i've asked. we had no choice but to send them to SSPCA and hope a loving family would take them in.

on the way to the shelter, they slept like tiny, tiny logs.

tired fella

exhausted from a traumatic experience

on the way

it really broke my heart to have had to leave them there...even as we walked back to the car, their baby meows were unbearable.

at the animal shelter

a huge part of me feels so useless...
but a part of me is glad for moments in life such as this.
