Monday, March 16, 2015, 17:40 GMT+7

A Ho Chi Minh City girl has had her hands full tending to almost 100 stray, abused cats at home during the past two years.

Kim Anh, in her 20s, has provided medical treatment, care, and love for stray, ill-treated felines in her house in District 4 so far, local newswire VnExpress reported.

She first stumbled upon a motionless, starved kitten at a market near her home over two years ago.

Without hesitation, the girl brought the distressed animal home.

During an outing with her boyfriend one day, Anh heard distress meows in the lower part of a bridge.
