Cat Rescue

There seems to be an infinite number of kitten and cat rescue videos out there.
And I'm beginning to think that 99.8% of them are staged. 
It would probably be a conservative estimate that I've gone for a thousand walks in the park in the last fifteen years and I've yet to come across an abandoned kitten on any of those recreational outings.
And it's like the same three or four people finding all these kittens.
Am I to believe that while I never come across a single kitty, some other guy in Kazachastan has stumbled across three dozen six-week-old kittens who happen to be out in the open for all to see, crying for attention and food from human strangers?
And that he just happens to always have, yummy cat treats, dirty cat face wipes and pet carriers with him?
And while there's the occasional hissing and scratching cat encountered or cat that scampers away when approached, that the majority of these stray kittens and cats are generally approving of and open to being approached and handed by strangers making their weird cat imitation noises?
Call me a skeptic and even an old fuddy duddy but I'm not totally believing in the sincerity behind all this random kindness.


Cat encountered while closely monitoring my movements ..... along with the activity around a hummingbird feeder a short distance away, in June of 2022 at the Catholic Abbey on the hill in Mt. Angel, Oregon.
