A kitten who was brought to the Nebraska Humane Society with severe burns last week is on the catwalk to recovery.
The 10-week-old black and white kitty named Hope has pink bandages covering most of her left side.

Hope's left legs were seriously burned and her whiskers were singed.
Pam Wiese, a spokeswoman for the Humane Society, said it was unknown if Hope was burned with chemicals or with fire, on purpose or by accident.
A concerned citizen brought in the kitten last week and did not know the circumstances of her injuries, Wiese said.
