A generous man saved a little calico kitty out of the trash when he noticed her in the back of his vehicle.
Mark G. the trash worker from Upper Darby Township Sanitation Department was emptying the can into his truck when he found the small calico.
“He spotted something was moving inside one of the bags. He immediately opened the bag and found the kitty,” Justina Calgiano of Providence Animal Center told Love Meow.
They immediately contacted the local animal control for help. When Providence Animal Center (Media, Pennsylvania) heard about the little kitty, they took her in and brought her to the vets.
They gave her the name “Grundgetta” after Oscar the Grouch’s girlfriend.
“She was so innocent and cute and didn’t deserve to be treated that way. I’m glad she’s safe and healthy,” Mark told Love Meow.
The tiny kitty is doing very well. She’s full of love and can’t get enough of attention from her caregivers.
Grundgetta is only 3-4 weeks old, and still needs to be bottle fed.
“We’re looking to transfer her into a foster home with experience dealing with ‘bottle kitties’ and then in 4-5 weeks when she’s old enough and healthy enough, we’ll place her up for adoption,” Calgiano told Love Meow.
Mark plans to visit the kitty when she is ready to be put up for adoption. He is so happy to know that the kitty is in good hands and loved.
“I was just doing what was right and making sure the cat got safe and the help (she) needs,” he said.
Look what a love bug she is!
