I just hope you tried to find the previous owners first. Way too many people seem to just take in random animal without doing that, leaving the previous family devastated in the process...
Oh of course! I kept an eye on the local lost pet listings and had her checked for a microchip, no luck with either.
I don't know how long a young kitten can go without food, but she was extremely skinny, had fleas and worms, and with how matted her fur was with leaves and filth, she really didn't look like she'd been taken care of. 😢
Good job! And it seems that it was lucky that she found you! Good luck with your cat 😊
