Woman Heard Strange Sounds Coming From A Bush. When She Shone Her Light? OMG.

Chirp, Chirp! Sounds like a bird – right?! That is what Imgur user arthisbeapirate thought too when she and a neighbor heard the odd chirping inside a bush at their apartment complex one night. Curious, they investigated and found, not birds, but kittens!


It was dark, and the kittens were pretty deep in the bush, but it looked as if the kittens were just a few days old.


They were not certain if momma cat was nearby or not, so they waited, but kept a close eye on the babies.

When momma cat didn’t return, and the babies seemed to be struggling to live, they stepped in and pulled the kittens out of the bush.

There were four kittens in all, three of them were stuck together by a very tangled umbilical cords.

Sadly, only one kitten survived the ordeal – she was small, but wasn’t giving up!

Every 2 hours they fed the kitten and kept her warm.

SO the kitten wouldn’t feel alone, the veterinarian suggested a stuffed animal to keep her company!

Slowly, the kitten grew stronger and started to venture outside the carrier.

They named her Ripley in honor of Eleanor Ripley (heroic survivor of the Alien movies). Here we see that Ripley has her eyes open and is enjoying a belly rub!

They said it was so amazing to watch Ripley change from a tiny like alien-like creature into a cat without having a feline parent show her how to bathe, or scratch or stretch!

Ripley has settled into herself and her home! Ripley recently turned one and loves life!

Tesco: Ditch palm oil in your own-brand products!

>>>SIGN PETITION HERE<<< My name is Oscar, I’m 15 and I want to do everything I can to protect our environment .  I was really upset and angry when I found out about the huge deforestation that is involved in the palm oil industry,  and that’s why I’m calling on Tesco to ditch palm oil from their own-brand products. Iceland has already banned palm oil from their own brand products, so we know that this is possible for Tesco too. As the largest supermarket in the UK (and using over 40,000 tonnes of palm oil every year!), Tesco has an opportunity to set an example to other supermarkets and food producers that  destroying swathes of forests for palm oil is not acceptable. I run a online cause called ‘Justice4Earth’ ( @justice4earth  on Instagram and  @justice4earth  on Twitter) where I raise awareness about environmental issues. I found out that palm oil is literally everywhere: from shampoos, toothpastes and detergen...

She Visited A Chained Dog Every Day Until The Dog Disappeared. But That Led To Something Amazing.

Jes is a member of PETA, and she feels incredibly strongly about the animals in her life. For years, one such animal was a dog named Edith. Jes saw Edith chained up day after day, so she started visiting the poor dog. She would bring the loving pooch treats, food, water, and once she even brought a doghouse to the trapped dog. Then, one day Edith’s family moved and took the dog with them. PETA spent a lot of time and energy tracking Edith down, and in March of 2016 her owner’s officially gave Edith to PETA because they were moving once again. This is an incredible and touching story, and if you check out the video below you can watch it all in close detail, and I’m sure that you’ll fall in love with Edith just the way that Jes did. Take a look! Now Edith and Jes are reunited and the two of them couldn’t possibly be happier! Share away, people!

“I’m Not Leaving You, Mama!” This is What Love Looks Like.

UPDATE: Lizzie and Phantom are currently recovering in an outdoor koala ward within the  Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital . They’re doing swimmingly; Phantom is both gaining weight and exploring his temporary habitat. And of course, mama and baby are sharing more adorable cuddles! For most species in the animal kingdom, the bond between mother and baby is incredibly strong. That's pretty much inarguable. But last week, two koalas in Australia further proved it. After they were hit by a car, Lizzie and her joey, Phantom were welcomed into the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital. Six-month-old Phantom had escaped the accident unscathed. Lizzie, however, wasn’t looking so good, what with facial trauma and a collapsed lung. In order to survive, she needed to go under the surgeon’s knife. But this marsupial mama wasn’t alone during the life-saving procedure. Phantom accompanied her and clung to her as she received treatment. The vets let them be; Phantom was too y...
