    Shanti

    My name is Shanti which mean “peace” in India. I was found in Ithaca, NY with my four other siblings. We were all dumped on a dark highway where there were homes with farms. I guess the dumper thought we would take to our new surroundings… but, we were dazed and confused and my siblings would not go to my rescuers. I was scared and stiff and couldn’t run away. I wanted a warm place to live. My new mommies took me to the B&B where they were staying, where I was feed warm soy milk and food. Then they took me in their car to my new home in NJ, where I torture the other cats!!! Oh, I am having the time of my life. I really miss my siblings and hope that they are doing as well as me.

    I’m so sorry to hear about your siblings and hope they got rescued too. At least you have a good home and are safe. I have a former stray too and she refuses to go outside again. Being inside is so much better isn’t it?

    poor little thing! I am speechless that anyone would dump kittens next to a highway, in the dark and cold; but I am also delighted you saved this poor little sweetie. I hope the others made it to some kind of safety, or their suffering ended quickly at least. sigh :-(

    Shanti, you look so scared in this photo. I’m glad to hear you are feeling secure now & have settled into your new loving home. Sounds like you have great mommies who are taking wonderful care of you. Love & kisses.

    Oh, she did have a shower and actually didn’t mind it. I put her pose on my facebook and someone wrote to place her on here, She is soooo cute and not scared at all. I have a nice picture of her, but do not know how to show you all! OH, wait, maybe I can update my profile with a picture

    Peace to you Shanti…you look like you need
    some TLC but it probably was the camera’s fault ’cause it sure sounds like your new home if full of TLC!

    Looks a little someone just had a bath or similar, huh? Cute little messy-haired kitty.

    I’m sure your new owner (bless her heart!) has put a much happier expression on your face by now. You were a lucky kitty!

    Blessings on your mommies, Shanti. Horrors of your frightful early beginnings. I’m so glad you were rescued and are thriving. May God have mercy on those who dumped you, for I have none in my heart for them.

    It looks like Shanti was just given a bath (with water … horrible) and she hasn’t had the chance to groom herself yet. You be good to your family, little one.

    Sweet Shanti, you had an awfully hard start in your little life, but thank goodness you now have a safe and loving home. I wish that your siblings hadn’t been so frightened but I am hoping that somehow they have found a home, too.

    You look awfully tiny to be a cat torturer, but I’ll bet that you are really feisty. As well as adorable!

    Very depressing story. Yes we know people torture and abandon animals, and we know some can’t be saved. I don’t come to this site to be reminded of it.
