Sometimes I walk around my neighborhood whenever I am having trouble fall in sleeping. Last night around 12:30am, after 2 hours of laying in my bed and couldn’t fall asleep, I decided to take a stroll around the neighborhood. While walking past a church near my house, I heard a very faint “wa-wu wa-wu wa-wu” noise. It sounded like a child yelling/crying. It took me a few minutes to pinpoint where and which direction the noise is coming from; the noise was coming from a warehouse across the street from the church. Out of curiosity, I decided to cross the street and see what is going on.
As I slowly approaches the warehouse, I see a small animal in the grass bush on the left side of the warehouse. When I took a closer look I realized it was an orange tabby kitten and it was responsible for the faint “wa-wu wa-wu wa-wu” noise I was hearing. It was the only kitten I can find in the area and I do not see a mother cat anywhere. It hisses at me whenever I get close and I can’t tell its gender. When I finally decided to pick it up and bring the poor little kitten home, the kitten did not react well to me picking it up. It started to act violently and aggressively meowing; I had to put it down on the grass. As soon as I let it go, the kitten started running away from me. Instead of running further into the grass area, the kitten ran towards the road. Sadly the worst possible outcome happened, the kitten was hit by a car. I picked up his body and its mouth was moving not no sound, A few minutes later its mouth stopped moving and I am pretty sure the kitten is dead.
I can’t help but feel responsible for this kitten’s death. Maybe If I just kept walking instead of letting my curiosity get the better of me, the kitten could still be alive. Maybe the mother cat is out looking for food and I should have just minded my own business. Rest in peace kitten, I am very sorry!
