Valentine kitten

I was on my way to work last Feb 14 when I saw this tiny kitten hobbling across the street. He was trying to go under a tire of a moving van. I thought my heart was going to stop when I saw how near he was to being crushed. Fortunately, the van stopped when the driver heard me shouting for him to stop.

The kitten is a male brown tabby with blue eyse and the cutest face. We had a long discussion as to his name. Since he was found on Valentine's day, we thought that he should be named after something associated with the day. Then we thought -chocolates, so his name is Snickers.

I don't have pictures of him now. I thought he was lame but after a few weeks he started walking normally. He was just probably hungry and weak.
