This is Diesel. She was a stowaway who couldn’t get herself back out after crawling underneath a school bus. She was trapped there for two days with no food or water — and there’s no telling how long she may have gone without either before she was found.

One of the mechanics finally reached her and brought her to safety. I brought her home and named her Diesel because she smelled just like diesel fuel.

She had just been weaned from her mother. I’ve had her since the middle of December. She is now four months old and a happy little girl.
