About a week ago, me and my bf were cruising the streets of this huge mile long garage sale. This little 9th grade girl comes up to me and him with this ADORABLE black kitten with green/blue eyes. She asked us if we wanted the cat. She said the poor thing nearly got ran over. My bf told her no, but a sudden urge told me to take the cat. Right as she was about to walk away, I told her I would take it.
So here I was, just walkin down the busy street with a scared and whailing kitten. People gave me some weird looks, but I didnt care.
I just knew it was up to me now to find the poor thing a nice home. I knew I couldnt keep it because I already have 4 cats, and my bf's family wouldnt allow it to stay because they arnt big cat people.
I ended up carrying her around the whole day because we had to do quite a few errands before returning home. I managed to set up a cage for her, along with her own litter box , food and water.

After a few of her naps, we were able to see her true personality. Like all kittens, she is VERY playful. She is very talkative, and loves to cuddle. She is good with people, and if there is a lap available, she will take it. The name "Pepper" fits her well, because she has so much pep! So me and my bf settled on the name Peppermint.
She and my bf's sister's pitbull puppy love to play. They will tackle each-other and chase each-other around.
During one of their play sessions, the pitbull scratched or bit her near her ear. It was just a tiny little scratch, but it got infected and now the whole left side of her face is pretty swollen. I dont have the money to bring her to a vet, so I researched it and I am pretty sure she has an abscess, which is an infected wound that swells with puss. Me and my bf cleaned her cut, and the swelling looks to have gone down quite a bit.
The great news is, she is going to meet my boyfriends grandparents, who have been looking for a kitten. They seem to take great care of their animals, so I'm excited about the meeting. They would also bring her to the vet if they chose to keep her.
The only problem is her sharp claws...I have quite a few scratches from her pouncing on my hands. We will have to file them back a bit before the meeting. I really hope they fall in love with her like I did!
