This adorable 10-day-old kitten is happy to find help and won’t stop purring happily.
An adorable 10-day-old kitten named Clove has arrived in the care of Baby Kitten Rescue in Los Angeles, California. She was found abandoned with no mother nearby to protect her, and in very poor health. Her rescuers immediately began an intensive care protocol to help her recover.
The little feline was covered in fleas all over her tiny body, she had a scab in her armpits, and she was battling a terrible infection, but her drive and strength were admirable.
Caroline Grace, founder of Baby Kitten Rescue, told Love Meow:
They found her on a Thursday night alone. The researchers waited for the mother cat, but unfortunately, she never returned. Clove was severely dehydrated and constantly crying in pain from her stomach issues.

Within hours I could tell she was starting to feel better. She was still figuring out her latch but was eating well with every feed.
The adorable kitten quickly regained all her energy and enjoyed being tied to the arm of her favorite human, purring happily, despite her small size her desire to live was evident.
