Spunky "My Angel From the Roof"

Spunky came to me on a rainly night in Los Angeles while visiting my father. A neighbor came to the door telling us that he heard faint crying noises coming from his roof top. He wanted to borrow a ladder and asked if we would come and help him investigate the situation. We found three tiny kittens on the roof in extremely bad shape. They were no more than two weeks old, soaking wet, hypothermic and very close to death. We brought them down and into my father's house. We were pretty sure that one of the kittens was not going to survive. His breathing was very faint and he was not moving. Towels, blow dryers and kitten formula were utilized in a desperate effort to save them. About ten minutes later the kittens started to come to life. Incredibly they all three survived.

My husband and I drove all three kittens back to our home on the central coast of California. We found loving homes for two of them but kept Spunky. This amazing kitty holds a very special place in my heart. He is truly my amazing angel from the roof.
