Growing<br />

Kittens Buddha <strong>and</strong> Tucker<br />

snuggle in their bed. At just<br />

one week <strong>ol</strong>d, the two rely on<br />

the 24-hour care provided by<br />

their foster parent.<br />

success<br />

Foster Care v<strong>ol</strong>unteer Jenny Gonzales h<strong>ol</strong>ds<br />

a kitten just one week <strong>ol</strong>d, whose eyes could<br />

open at any moment. Though he has been<br />

born into this world so small <strong>and</strong> helpless,<br />

the first days of Buddha’s life have been full of love,<br />

security <strong>and</strong> tender care.<br />

Buddha has never gone hungry, as every two<br />

hours he receives life-giving nutrients from the tip<br />

of a warm bottle. He has never known vulnerability<br />

or danger, as Buddha falls asleep each night in soft<br />

blankets <strong>and</strong> a protective kennel. Buddha wakes to a<br />

new day full of health <strong>and</strong> growing potential, as he<br />

snuggles <strong>and</strong> plays with his adorable brother, Tucker.<br />

When the time comes for Buddha to first open his<br />

bright eyes to this big world, it will have supported<br />

him in every minute of his life so far. Somewhere in<br />

this kitten’s heart, Buddha will know he has been<br />

taken care of.
