Jenifer and Ashley were prepared to bottle-feed the kittens until weaned, but something wonderful happened!
The rescuers who initially brought the kittens to the shelter discovered the mother cat searching for her kittens at their home. They caught her and reunited her with her babies the next day.
When she first came to the shelter, she was a bit scared and shy until Ashley brought her one of the kittens.
“I held a baby up to her, and she visibly calmed down. We coaxed her out of the carrier with it. She went right over and curled up in the middle of her kittens, purring. They all went right to her and started nursing.”
Mama cat then started purring and nursing her babies. It was such a heartwarming reunion.
“So unbelievable that this miracle occurred. To say that the reunion went well is an understatement.”
The following morning, Ashley woke up to the sound of the mother cat purring happily.
She cuddled her kittens, not letting them go. Watch this heartwarming video of the adorable feline family:
