This is really Laurie's story, but I wanted to draw attention to it here.
Many of you may remember about a month ago, Hissy posted a plea for a kitten in New York that needed help NOW! Refresh your memories in the SOS forum, Anyone in the New York area available to help out a little girl and a kitten .
Again, pulling in resources from across the country, TCS was able to help this kitten. Laurie even arranged a foster with a lady who used to breed Persians who knew how to care for such a young kitten.
The part that we all didn't know about little Mae (as Gary has named her), is that the little girl's brother rescued her from a group of youngsters who were beating this 3-4 week old kitten with sticks.
Now Mae needs some board magic desperately. She trembles, and right now is boarding at the vet's for observation and to find out what kind of damage was really done. She's in very good hands, as Laurie describes in her latest post in the thread, but really needs all the prayers and board magic we can muster.
Gary named her Mae after Mae West, since she was such a strong and vibrant woman. They are hoping little Mae can live up to her namesake.
