Cutest Kitty -Meet Abby



My family and i found this gorgeous playful kitten wandering around lost, hungry and afraid.. 
We found her in the park wandering around.. 
We waited for someone to come looking for her since she had a flee collard on... 
2 hours passed and no one came .. 
We decided to keep it and raise it as our own :) 
Her name is Abby Shaila 
This is a video introducing her to the rest of the clan A.K.A. all of her new  brothers  
Kiwi, Robin, Panther, Moochie, all accepted her 
Shadow is a bit reluctant and jealous of the new kitten.. 
Shadow is my 3 year old tabby male cat (He is getting used to the fact that he no longer is the only cat in the house ) lol 
Abby is a strong and brave little kitten .. 
Extremely beautiful and playful 
We do not know how long she was in the streets for 
however we are more than drill to have her join our family :) 





No animals were harm in the making of this video!!
