This is Digger–a small kitty who’s had a rough start in his life, but is very determined to live. Digger may be small, but don’t let his size fool you. This kitty is a fighter and a survivor.
Digger’s sister was found by workers when they were demolishing an old church. The workers heard another kitten crying but they couldn’t find him. The next day, when the workers came back to work, they found a little kitten trying to free himself from the dirt and debris. That kitten was Digger.
The workers called Brandi Nickerson–a volunteer of a rescue group named
Animals In Need. Digger was injured so Brandi rushed him to the vet.
Digger’s hind leg was injured. The rescue group’s
Facebook post said, ‘
…he (Digger) has a fracture on one back leg, has skin removed from two toes on his other back leg, and has trouble using one of his front legs.‘
But Digger is a fighter, so even though he was starving and hurt, Brandi never heard a peep out of him. Digger’s legs was then bandaged and he got fitted for a cast.
Despite his injuries, Digger wanted to enjoy life. He was friendly and very playful!
Watch the video below and see how playful this adorable little darling is!
