Orphaned kitten abandoned on a train

A kitten was found abandoned on a long-distance train.

Station staff cared for him through the night and took him to a local veterinary clinic the morning after.

The night-shift station manager said they had “no idea” how the five-week-old kitten had come to be on the train.

Because of the animal’s size it was “unlikely” it had come aboard on its own so it is presumed someone abandoned him there.

“An animal so small wouldn’t have survived long alone, especially in the dangerous environment of the railway,” the station manager said.

And added: “He’s very young to have used up one of [his] nine lives already, but fortunately we got to him in time and he’s now receiving the care he needs.”

Although frightened by the rail journey the kitten is in good health and a local charity will be contacted so he can be rehomed.
