Kerri ❤️

The Little Girl They Threw Away, Who Still Has So Much Love to Give.

There is something especially heartbreaking about a kitten being abandoned before she’s even had the chance to understand what it means to be loved. A little life that should be filled with warmth, safety and the excitement of discovering the world, suddenly finding herself unwanted by the very people who were supposed to protect her.

That little girl is Kerri.

Kerri was just a baby when her family decided they didn’t want her anymore. We will never understand how someone can look into the eyes of a helpless little kitten, knowing she depends on them for absolutely everything, and decide she’s no longer worth keeping. She wasn’t asking for anything extraordinary. Just a home, a little kindness and someone to love her while she grew up.

Instead, she was thrown away.

And perhaps the most heartbreaking part of Kerri’s story is that despite being discarded like she meant nothing, this precious little girl still wants nothing more than to be held and loved.

Kerri absolutely adores being picked up, hugged and snuggled close. She’s a loving little girl who soaks up every bit of affection she can get, as though being wrapped in someone’s arms is exactly where she’s always belonged. And when she’s not busy collecting hugs, she’s a happy, playful kitten with a whole world of adventures waiting to be discovered.

There is something both beautiful and heartbreaking about a kitten who has already experienced rejection but hasn’t learned to stop trusting. Kerri doesn’t know how to hold a grudge. She still reaches for love, still wants to be close and still believes that every pair of arms reaching for her is there to keep her safe.

She has so much growing up left to do. So many toys to chase, so many silly kitten moments to share and so many years of love waiting to be given. All the little moments that should have belonged to her first family are now waiting for someone who will consider themselves lucky to be part of them.

We can’t give Kerri back the beginning she deserved, but we can give her the ending every little girl like her should have. A family who will cherish her, arms that will always welcome her and a home where she’ll never have to wonder if she’s still wanted.

❤️ Someday, we hope Kerri will be curled up in the arms of someone who loves her more than anything, completely unaware that there was ever a time when somebody didn’t want her. And when that person holds her close, we hope they’ll remember that this little girl was once thrown away simply because someone decided she wasn’t worth keeping. May she spend the rest of her life being reminded just how terribly wrong they were. ❤️
