Zephyr nearly had a tragic ending, but a kind woman spared him.

Last year, Irene was walking in a local park when she noticed a man walking towards the river. The man appeared to be holding something in his hands, and when she got closer, she wasn’t prepared for what she saw.
“He had a newborn kitten in his hands and I realized I had to act fast,” Irene said. “I managed to push the man seconds before he would’ve thrown a kitty into the river.”

Irene had no idea that day would result in her saving a kitten, but it did. The little cat was alive and trembling in the cold. Zephyr, the name Irene gave the cat, has been kissing her face as frequently as he can to express his thanks.
Irene claimed, “He didn’t want to let go of me.” Either he pushes against my face or begins to lick it virtually every day.
Irene adopted Zephyr as a newborn kitten and introduced him to her older cat at home. A year later, the two cats are still inseparable.
“The old cat treats the kitten like his own son,” Irene said. “They’re both adorable, hugging and licking each other.”

The once-upon-a-time stray now has a second chance at life, and he’s taking full advantage of it.
“[Zephyr] needs constant attention, loves when I chase him, or when he chases the [older] cat,” Irene said. “His favorite game is when I throw a toy mouse and he brings it back to me. He can chase the mouse all evening and never gets tired.
It didn’t matter how things turned out; this unique bond was intended to be.
Irene claimed, “He altered my life. “With his endless enthusiasm, he is my little ray of sunshine. It is comparable to a small child. You learn a lot from it.
