This is the story of Maddie and Splotchy, two tiny kittens tossed out on a busy street in Austin, TX.
Their pictures help me describe the unfathomable hardness of heart it takes to throw away two tiny little creatures in the most vulnerable moments of their lives.
"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated. I hold that, the more helpless a creature, the more entitled it is to protection by man from the cruelty of man" -Mahatma Gandhi

Terrific book! Exact tale of my "Mikey" -- someone rescued him at about 5 weeks old on a Houston city street. He's a black kitty too! He's a little over two years old now and we adore him!

This is the most wonderfully touching story of what it means to save the lives of precious fur babies. Of what it truly means when an animal rescues *you*. Beautiful and inspiring!
