She was riding along a quiet road when she heard faint cries coming from the bushes.
Ana Luísa turned back to see what was going on, only to discover a black kitten just a few days old, all alone by the side of the road.
An improvised rescue
The cyclist looked around to see if there were any other kittens, but the little creature seemed to be completely on its own. Leaving the tiny kitten behind was out of the question. So, she improvised a quick rescue... Since she had no bag or pockets, she tucked it inside her zipped jacket to keep it safely against her neck on the journey home.
The first few miles were a bit tricky, as the tiny feline tried to escape from its improvised carrier several times. Ana Luísa stopped twice to settle the kitten back safely. Eventually, the little one calmed down.
Specialist care
Once back home, she bought kitten formula milk and looked after the little one for two days and two nights, making sure it was well fed and kept warm. She then handed the kitten over to Angela, an experienced cat rescuer. This allowed the kitten to receive care tailored specifically to its needs.
Since then, Ana Luísa has been following the little survivor's progress closely and hopes with all her heart that she will find a loving, responsible forever home. Without Ana Luísa's help, this helpless kitten would not have survived. The cyclist was truly in the right place at the right time!
