A kitten with an injured paw was rescued from life on the street. She was so happy and had a lot to say.
Saving Grace Rescue
A stray kitten was taken into San Jose Animal Care and Control with a limping front leg. She was in need of rescue, so shelter volunteers reached out to Saving Grace Rescue (in San Francisco) for help.
Amber Rose, founder of Saving Grace Rescue, immediately arranged transport to get the kitten into a loving foster home. "Since the moment she arrived in my car, she's been very vocal," Joyce, a volunteer of the rescue, told Love Meow.
They named the kitten Dash.

At the vet, Dash, the little love-bug, purred up a storm while she was given an exam. "Her paw was numb which means her wrist suffered an avulsion that damaged her radial and ulnar nerves," Amber told Love Meow.
"Amazingly, function is returning to the leg. It doesn't stop her from getting on counters and stealing all the food. And she tells you all about it."

The sweet kitten loves a long conversation. She makes sure she is near her humans at all times, is vocal about what she wants and wouldn't take no for an answer.
"She demands cuddles. If we are eating, she wants to sit on one of our laps. She follows whoever is home, talks and demands attention from us," Joyce said.

Little Dash is half the size of a kitten her age, but she makes up for it in personality and her big voice. Despite having a slightly bent paw, she can walk and run around and climb things like a pro.

"She has no problem chasing her big foster brother, Hector the cat, up and down the stairs," Joyce added.
"Dash loves her foster dad, especially when he is sitting on a chair, and she demands cuddles."

After a few weeks in foster care, Dash is ready for her next chapter in life. Her leg has improved significantly, and she still has a lot to say every day.
"She is the loudest ball of fur we've ever had!"
