I gave to help a kitty in need because I can. If I can show a kitty that someone whom they've never set eyes on loves them and thinks that they are the most important kitty in the world then I must! He/She can not defend themself from this pain so I will. I can fight this particular situation so I will! My closest friends are, and always have been, the kitties in my life. They will outlive me and that is how it should be.
