Sad but Sweet

This has been such a crazy week, but the craziest thing that has happened was on Tuesday morning. My friend and I were running on at 5:15 a.m. out on a country road. We ran by a driveway and the mailbox flew open. I swore I heard a kitten, but she thought it was a bird, so we just ran on by. On the way back, about 1/2 an hour later, I knew I had to take a look. Way in the back of the mailbox was a tiny kitten. I got him out of there and took him home. I found out that he was only about 3 week old. So, after a day of feeding him with a bottle and helping him go potty and stuff, I realized I just couldn't manage him. A co-worker who has someone home all day is caring for him. I named him Miles since he was found on a run. Here's a pic of the little guy.

How cute! I absolutely love baby animals. I don't have time right now, or this would make me want one.

I guess whoever put him there thought he would be safe and found. But if you hadn't rescued him, it may have been too late before someone checked their mailbox. Thanks for being a good dobee. He is very cute.
