A few weeks before rescuing the kitten, Aimee had opened her home to a mother cat named Lucy and her litter of six kittens, who were born in a shelter. Lucy was overjoyed to leave the kennel and settle into a comfortable home.
Having a nursing mother is crucial for the well-being of a newborn kitten. Aimee introduced the little orphan to Lucy, hoping she would accept him.
Within seconds, Lucy embraced the new addition, started caring for him, and allowed him to nurse alongside her own kittens. Despite being the smallest of the bunch, the rescued kitten held his own, vying for Mama’s attention and snuggling up to her for extra TLC.
