Transform your Comment into Cash
Welcome to Steemit Comment Challenge #12!!!
Are you ready for a new Comment Challenge?
It will be hard to beat last week's record run, where we reach 35.5SBD! At payout, it was worth more than $200 USD. The winner, @japh, only found out a few days later that he had won. Luckily for him, the price of SBD had almost doubled and the total worth around $400USD.
Now, Iβm afraid I cannot guarantee the same kind of prize money for this round, but if SBD stays around $10, it will still be something amazing. So for all of you that want to participate in this week's challenge. Get ready to deliver some magnificent comments! Polish your keyboard and sharpen your mind, I wanna see those comments rolling in. Please show me what you have got!
It is important to get followers, but you also want the correct type of followers. Followers that are truly interested in your blog and what you write, and not the βI-follow-you-if-you-follow-meβ kind of type. And to attract the right type of followers, you need to write godlike comments.
This challenge is all about writing godlike comments.
- In each challenge a post from a fellow minnow will be featured.
- The challenge is to write an amazing comment related to that post.
- I will resteem the post.
- I will give it a 100% upvote.
This will be part of my campaign to help other Minnows. The #minnowsupportproject helped me and I want to help others.
Join the challenge and practice your skills.
Please join the fun! π π

One way to cope with a dying kitten is to perform first aid according to the sign of the illness shown. The cats are particularly susceptible to hypothermia because they are still unable to regulate the temperature and are very dependent on the parent for warmth. Hypothermia is a very dangerous condition because it can lead to increased heart rate and breathing that lead to failure of the cardiovascular system. Hypothermia is also what causes the cat is not able to process food so that does not have enough nutrient intake. Hopefully useful.
By the way, you are a good man.

Most people don't even look up from their cellular devices to look at the road they are driving on let alone blink an eye at a stray! Taking the time to care about the little lily-livered feline shows your compassion. Most stray cats would almost rather go hungry than to get to close to a human, they must have sensed your compassionate nature and trusted that you were helping them survive. I imagine your kind compassionate nature runs in the family, so while your wife likely will have compassion for you @johnkingwriter you might be eating with the kittens and putting your pillow & blanket on your pool table! lol J/k In all seriousness, you write beautifully and truly showed your compassion for healing an injured soul, you may have ended up with more than you bargained for which is a blessing in itself. I am sure your family will help you name them and re-home them. I would also expect that they will be very proud of your efforts and always remember the kindness you showed to these hungry & freezing kittens.

From one human to another I want you to know that you did great. You responded with care when those kittens needed it the most. I don't even know you, but I know that we could be friends, just by this one act of kindness.
The part about 2 kittens showing up after a little kindness reminded me of the children beggars here in the Philippines. You give one of them a few pesos and the next thing you know, you have more children asking. Those kittens definitely did some communicating with each other.
You seem to be like me. All tough like on the outside, but gooey on the inside. Even being a non-lover of cats, you are still human, whether you want to believe that or not. Although the world seems to be going to crap at times, there are still plenty of us kind and sensible human beings left to keep things in perspective.
If it were me that rescued them, I would keep them to control the mice, roaches and other bugs around here, but you don't have that option. I'm willing to bet that you will do your best to find a good place for them to live. Hopefully both of them together. I'm also sure that you will have your wife's 100% cooperation (because if she hasn't found out about them already, she will eventually) in finding them a good home.
In conclusion, I'd like to say that this world is a better place with people like you in it. You continue being you, even with your tough guy exterior. It's part of you and what makes you who you are. Thank you again for being a good man.
P.S. I hope those kittens didn't leave a little pool on your pool table.

This post made me laugh! You basically put the cats before your whole family! Something I would dedinately do! π You are more of a cat person than you think π» Hopefully you did not have to make a bed out of that pool table! Although sleeping with cats can be soothing! Glad you took them in! I'm sure they will find the purrrrrfect family

Every being, either human or animal, deserves to live, and that, devoid of hunger. @johnkingwriter's Kitten Rescue story reflects that kindness has no limits. Blood runs in those little creatures just as it does in us. When the helpless trusts you, he puts his life in your control.
Owing to the allergic nature of other family members, they may not be able to accommodate the cats moving freely in the house. A cage will be a good alternative. They are likely to get used to having them around and get their allergy healed, as allergy sometimes could be psychological.

Sounds like I need to read up a bit to understand the psychological aspects of allergies.

Of recent I defined the word love as the giving something to someone without the expectancy of getting something back from it.
Now why did I say this; according to you, you and your family are allergic to cats and your wife will kill you if she notices the cats in the house, but your unfailing love will not consider all you will go through just from you to ensure the survival of this creatures.
This is what I call real love. If only this kind of love can be extended by everyone to all places on earth, them the world would be a better place to live

Humanity and passion are two diametrical opposite notions. If you are humane enough to give an abode to wandering cats and feed the undernourished cats regardless of their caterwaul sounds, you need to be lauded and commended. I live in a part of the continent whereby people with luxury do not care a fig about your condition. In as long as their families are well-fed, they can damn the waifs and strays on the street. Humanity is like a fragrance. It attracts people to you naturally. What led the cats back to you endlessly is your caring and kind nature which they can perceive. Cats are like humans; they saw your efforts on them to ensure that they are fed and for that, they will always be grateful.
I am a Nigerian and i can say categorically that this kind of good character;altruistic and solicitous character are lacking. The rich can flaunt their wealth in front of you, give you crumbs of bread with arrogance and take dominance of your life because of that meagre acts. How i wish that @johnkingwriter is the President of my country, we would feel the effect of his kindness at the lower rung of the societal ladder.
I hustle because i don't want to be a criminal but how many people can say that owing to the nonchalant attitudes of the haves against the haves-not?

Well studies has shown that kitty create a positive emotion in behaviour of any person same thing happened with our friend ,when he saw a cat cannot control his emotion and helped her.
Well there is a close a relation between human being and animals as we are one of the evoluted category of them , if anybody see any pet in problem he immediately help them. This show a bond between us and animals. Same bond is seen between the kitty and @johnkingwriter.
He helped kitty and fulfilled her stomach that's a great thing. This shows that humanity exist.

@johnkingwriter The warmth and active compassion demonstrated by you reveals your humanity. Well done! In this digital age it seems many have been seduced and trapped in a binary fiction seeking to create some type of currency that may one day change their life. The thing is that "one day" never seems to arrive. Ever since the Babylonians fooled people into believing that rocks were somehow money we have been disconnected from the source of our power. Now with the rise of the digital age the idea of money is becoming even more abstract. There is now a pending danger and opportunity I think. There is a danger of humanity surrendering to the artifical. But there is also the very real possibility of us awakening to the real. The only real currency there has ever been is human energy multiplied and strengthened through our humane interactions. Your compassion reveals your soul. That energy has been shared but instead of diminishing you it has gone out into the universe and is now returning back to you, multiplied with "interest" as demonstrated by the comments/feedback you will recieve. That act of compassion has created new connections and has actually, materially changed the world. Well done! That is the real, natural, and universal economy. I am new here and am clueless about crypto. The steemit platform is a bit complicated for an old poet but I think I will eventually figure it out. :) Sometimes it feels like I am in a foreign open market and hundeds of vendors are trying to sell me things I don't know about in a language I don't understand. At other times I feel like those kittens, lost and cold, and hungry, and looking for a place to be. And along the way there have been people who have given advice and encouragement, nourishment that got me through that day. Thank you for helping the kittens and thank all of you compassionate and generous souls who leave a little out for the kittens like me. That is true currency. That is love.

Thank you. I think the world is in a profound time of flux. Our human originality and real actionable compassion will win the day. Sentiment exists in the binary fiction. This man's response to need was simple spontaneous and powerful. Thanks for letting me play.

Thnx for directing to me such great story, Intresting incident, cats look really cute, no masters must dumb their pets like that, kudos to @johnkingwriter, who took care of them even after being allergic to cats, not everyone has heart to help someone who is scared, scruffy and badly underfed.
