Abused Kitten Passes Away, And Vet Films His Brokenhearted Response

[Surya Gayatri]

(in Spanish, but the language of his pain is universal)

This vet recorded an incredible tribute to one of his tiniest patients.

Broken, the kitten, arrived at Carlos Rodriguez's veterinary practice last week after being abused by a group of children. They had thrown and kicked the little kitten around like a ball, leaving her with terrible injuries.

They broke her femur and completely destroyed her abdominal wall — the first time Rodriguez had ever seen such damage.

Sadly, after a week of treatment and multiple surgeries, Broken passed away. And Rodriguez captured his incredible response on camera.

The video isn't in English, but his message is perfectly clear.

What a beautiful soul...would that all vets had this same love and devotion for their patients.

May the evil kids that did this reap what they so viciously sowed.

1. oh god

We have had a dog come to us as a rescue who has bbs in his leg and a healed burn on his back that is the size of my fist.

America where is your heart? Your soul? What do you value and protect most? Have we become as violent and evil as our sociopathic leaders?

2. Not sure where Dr. Rodriguez is--whether in the States or south of the border.

Cruelty is universal, sadly. No country has the monopoly.

3. He spoke with a Catalan accent.

Could be from Spain? Unless there are other clues that I missed.

This is the kind of compassion that we should be seeing from adults.

4. Aha! My Spanish isn't up to really catching accents.

I DID suspect he sounded more Spanish than Latin American, but didn't want to sound silly.

5. I just can't bring myself to watch.

Just thinking about it has me in tears.

6. I couldn't catch much of the Spanish, but just his expression and body language teared me up.

Beautiful, compassionate man.

7. A beautiful man, full of compassion, respect for life

As I listened to him in the first video, I was struck by what he said could be applied to the deaths in North Carolina.

8. He's obviously someone who loves all creatures in the universe.

Even the mixed-up, twisted kids who did this, I'm sure.

That poor precious animal. what a cruel, undeserving fate.
