Little
Girl is a middle-aged black and white cat who lives in the Cat
House. She can usually be found up high, perched in the wooden catwalks
near the ceiling.
Little Girl is a real survivor. She used to live with another cat,
Skinny Boy, behind a fast food restaurant near the I-4 freeway in
Orlando. For 4 years, a man drove 30 minutes each way to feed them.
Then a lady who lived nearby heard about their situation and took over
feeding them. She fed them for over a
year and a half.
Eventually a large hotel construction project was started, and the
restaurant was torn down. Both cats started living in a drainage ditch
next to the freeway.
Skinny Boy was soon hit by a car, and his leg was broken and badly cut
up. The lady took him to a vet, and he recovered well. She decided to
adopt him. She then trapped Little Girl. She wanted to keep them
together since they had been companions for so long, but since she couldn't keep them both, she arranged for Little
Girl to come to Journey's End.
Despite living outdoors for much of her life, Little Girl is in
excellent health. She was sweet-natured and cooperative after being
trapped, but she is still very shy with people she doesn't know.
Little Girl's only shelter was a drainage pipe in the ditch
On one side of the ditch was a busy freeway ...
... and on the other side was a large construction project
