While driving, a kind woman noticed a soft ball of fur resting by the roadside.

As she drew nearer, her heart melted as she discovered a cream-colored motionless kitten.

Concerned for the poor thing's well-being, she carefully pulled over and crossed the road to investigate.

To her relief, she saw the kitten's gentle breathing. Without hesitation, she gently scooped up the little thing and rushed off to seek assistance.

Not far away, a cat, presumably the kitten's mother, was discovered, a victim of what seemed to be a tragic car accident.

Despite the sorrowful sight, the cream kitten miraculously survived its ordeal on the side of the road.
