A Comforting Face

Down here in Texas, as most of you can imagine (I know Neal can vouch with me), the hurricane has been stirring up some trouble. I went down to the local Burger King today and ordered a Loaded Steakhouse Burger. I looked out the window at the drive through, and saw this lost kitten down by the bushes.

After picking up the food, I asked the attendant if he'd seen the cat before. Apparently, it had been there for several days (three or four). I drove back around and parked towards the east end of the lot, got out of the car, and finally trapped the kitten.

He's a Siamese, probably about a month and a half old. Poor guy had oil on his head, but I cleaned him off when we got home. His tail is broken and his leg has a gash in it. He's so skinny that I can feel all his vertebrae and his ribcage. He's also pretty ill. Friendly little guy, but I'm worried about him. He's not doing too well. He's sleeping right now. It's about 4:15 AM here, and I should probably join him for the night, lol.

I'll get some pictures up tomorrow when I get my camera working.
