Forum Cats Photo Showcase
Kola
"I found Kola on my way to a native american spiritual ceremony in Indianapolis, IN, in 1998. An immature bald eagle flew across the highway at about eye level with me, less than a car length in front of my car about ten minutes before I got to a rest area east of Indianapolis. He and his mother had been dumped off at the rest area when he was about 8 weeks old. When I found him, he was crouched near his mother, but she'd been struck by a vehicle and had died. Kola backed off from me when I approached him at first, but when I called to him he came up to me, and when I picked him up, he was clingy and started telling me all about how awful things were. I stopped and got him some food, water, a large carrier, and a litter pan and litter at the next exit.
His full name is Kola Wambleska (Kola Wam-BLEE-skah) (Sioux for "Friend White Eagle")
