A neighbor saw a gray kitten in the corner of their flower garden. Once brought inside, he made the cutest demands. ScrunkleSparkleCatRescueLast weekend, Stephanie Grantham, founder of Sparkle Cat Rescue, was at a vet clinic when she encountered a little gray kitten. "He only weighed 1.46 pounds and was just rolling around happily and showing off," Stephanie shared with Love Meow.At 4-5 weeks old, the kitten named Scrunkle had gone through quite a journey before finding safety. It all began when Clara, an independent animal rescuer, received a call from her neighbor.As her neighbor finished mowing the lawn, he spotted a glint from his wife's flower garden and noticed a tiny ball of fur shuffling in the corner. He was found alone in a flower gardenSparkleCatRescueUpon closer inspection, it was a gray kitten, gazing up at him with pleading eyes. The little stray had been wandering the streets alone until he stumbled upon the neighbor's yard.Shortly after the call, Clara arrived with a large crate, not knowing how tiny or friendly the kitten was. SparkleCatRescueWhen she approached Scrunkle, he didn't run or flee but was eager to be helped. Clara simply reached into the flower bed, scooped him out, and placed him in her arms.The kitten was instantly calm, leaning into her for comfort. "She took the baby home, made him comfortable, and fed him. The next morning, she brought him to the clinic." He immediately demanded attention and cuddles from peopleSparkleCatRescueScrunkle was overjoyed to have people pay attention to him, meowing up a storm until he was picked up and cuddled. Knowing how much he needed a foster home, Stephanie offered to take him and transport him to his carers, Erin and Lauren."He did not want to be in the carrier, so I held him in my lap, wrapped in a towel the whole time. All he wanted was snuggles." SparkleCatRescueThe kitten was flea-ridden, dehydrated, and a bit lethargic but insisted on staying close to people at all times. After getting treated and cleaned up, he rolled around in a warm lap with his paws up in the air, running his purr motor on high."Within a few hours of drinking water, getting Nutrical, and eating a good meal, he was all settled in, doing well." SparkleCatRescueWhile recovering from those lonely days on the streets, Scrunkle's purr engine never seemed to stop running.With proper care and plenty of TLC, he is finally flea-free, and his stomach issues are on the mend. He is getting increasingly clingy and demanding for cuddles and wouldn't take no for an answer. He adores people and wants snuggles all daySparkleCatRescue"He's just the snuggliest, sweetest little guy. He loves people and wants cuddles all day," Erin shared.Scrunkle sprints to his foster carers the moment they enter the room, brushing his soft fur against their legs. When he's petted, he flops into a purring heap and melts into a puddle of joy. SparkleCatRescueWithin a few days in foster care, he has blossomed into a love bug and a purr machine.He is always glued to his foster family's side, seeking affection from the moment he wakes up, making sure he never lacks an ounce of love.

Friday's Final Word

Surveillance video captured a burglar breaking into a southern California business and then leaving a bizarre note for the owner. The video showed a man crawling on the floor into a restaurant named Teriyaki Madness in San Fernando. 'Sorry! Need money for drugs.'After stealing money from the cash register, the man is seen writing something on a note and leaving it on the counter. KABC obtained video of the note and posted it to its news report on YouTube. "Sorry! Need money for drugs. Won't come back," it read. The San Fernando Police Department says it has collected the note and video for evidence and believes the man committed other robberies in the area. Police said there were 10 businesses vandalized or burglarized over the span of a few days in the same area. "This person appears to have done this before," said San Fernando Police Chief Fabian Valdez. "It looks like they were concealing their fingerprints and being very careful on ... what they touched," he added. The owner of a store called the Protein Stop said that $500 was stolen from his business by a man who appeared to look very similar to the one who stole from the restaurant. The other businesses that were targeted included two taco restaurants, a coffee shop, and two ice cream shops. Police said they are investigating leads but have so far not identified a suspect in the crime spree.Like Blaze News?
