A Tale of Inclusive Love: An orange kitten hops over the fence to join a litter of smaller kittens, becoming a surrogate parent and assisting in their upbringing.
An orange kitten hopped the fence to join a litter of smaller kittens and decided to help raise them.
When Shelbi Uyehara, the founder of Jin’s Bottle Babies (a kitten rescue in Arizona), moved into her new home this fall, she and her husband noticed a house that had a lot of cats hanging around.
They connected with the homeowner (the caretaker), so they could learn more about the neighborhood cats, get them spayed and neutered, and provide them with medical care. “There were about 30-40 cats needing fixing and some were pregnant,” Shelbi told Love Meow.
While the couple were busy renovating their home, a cat started showing up outside their driveway and around their house. As it turned out, she had just given birth in the caretaker’s front yard.
“Her kittens were born the night before we moved in. It’s like she was waiting for us.”
Red was over the moon when he discovered a warm lap and flopped on it for extended cuddles. He purred up a storm and melted into his people while he was petted.
