Aragarif, a mutt with a heart of gold, embarked on a leisurely stroll through the scenic mountains of Athens when an astonishing sight caught his attention – a discarded box housing a group of tiny, helpless kittens. Aragarif’s compassionate human decided to bring the abandoned felines to their home, providing them with the warmth and care they so desperately needed. In the regions of Greece, and beyond, it has sadly become a common occurrence for people to heartlessly abandon entire litters of feline babies. Regrettably, the defenseless kittens have little chance of survival amidst the unforgiving wilderness, hence why the boxes inevitably remain empty.
Aragarif’s doting human is an active volunteer at an esteemed animal charity, and she resolved to create a compelling video shedding light on the countless innocent creatures who face abandonment atop the mountain. She reveals, “Almost every day, I stumble upon vacated cardboard boxes scattered along the slopes, often still containing blankets and toys, but no signs of animals.” Driven by this disheartening reality, Aragarif’s human decided to take her camera along on their expedition, aiming to capture footage for her emotionally-charged video. Considering that the wilderness typically claims abandoned kittens within a matter of hours, Aragarif and his human anticipated merely a few fleeting moments to document the ever-present array of forsaken boxes.
Much to their astonishment, an extraordinary occurrence unraveled before their eyes. Aragarif instinctively tugged his human towards one particular box, compelling them to gaze within. To their sheer amazement, they discovered an entire litter of kittens, defying all odds by managing to survive long enough to be discovered and subsequently rescued. Without hesitation, they lovingly welcomed the litter into their home, with Aragarif wholeheartedly assuming the role of a foster father. Having heroically ʀᴇsᴄᴜᴇᴅ the precious little ones, Aragarif was determined to provide them with everything they required for a bright future.
The kittens underwent thorough examination by a compassionate veterinarian, while the devoted individuals at SCARS ensured their every need was met. Yet, nobody showered these tender kittens with more affection and care than Aragarif. Though not their biological father, there was no denying the profound bond manifested within his paternal heart. He played, cuddled, and bestowed upon them an abundance of love, offering all the care and attention these little ones required from their adoring father figure. Thanks to Aragarif’s acute sense of smell and his boundless love, the kittens were granted a second chance at life. Flourishing under the devoted care of SCARS and their doting foster father, the kittens were made to feel cherished and secure during their most vulnerable moments – an experience that will assuredly resonate throughout their entire lives.
