A cat came to the right place for a meal, leading to a new beginning for her and three kittens.
Minah and her kittenChatonsOrphelinsMontrealEarlier this month, a young cat wandered alone into a stray colony, searching for food.She had come to the right place for help. A local animal rescuer who assists community cats spotted her and noticed her round belly. They sprang into action, securing the cat and bringing her to Chatons Orphelins Montreal.The cat was heavily pregnant and had nowhere to go, but that was about to change.
ChatonsOrphelinsMontreal"We took her into our care and named her Minah. She was about one year old, and despite her advanced pregnancy, she was very skinny," Celine with Chatons Orphelins Montreal shared with Love Meow."Even though she was unfamiliar with her new surroundings, she was friendly with everyone she met."
ChatonsOrphelinsMontrealThey prepared a cozy space for her to decompress and provided plenty of nourishing food to help her regain strength.Minah quickly became a snuggle bug, rubbing against her foster mom and pressing her face into her hand. She was overjoyed to have a roof over her head and a loving human to care for her. "She explored her room, then chose her spot by flopping onto her back."
ChatonsOrphelinsMontreal"She's sweet and gentle, still a baby who adores human company and loves being petted. Her foster family pampers her, and she 'thanks' them by showing her belly."A few days later, the foster mom walked into the room to a delightful surprise. "Minah had gone into labor in her teepee bed. In just three hours, she delivered three kittens, each weighing between 100 and 120 grams."
She gave birth to three kittensChatonsOrphelinsMontrealThe kittens, all girls, began their lives in comfort and warmth. Minah tended to their every need, ensuring they were well cared for."She bonded with her foster mom right from the start. During labor, she purred whenever her foster mom helped with her babies. She is a great mom even though she is still a kitten herself."
Minah cuddled with her smallest kittenChatonsOrphelinsMontrealTo keep things on track, the foster carer weighed the kittens three times a day, making sure they were growing strong and healthy. "When she noticed the smallest kitten was losing weight, she immediately took action."The little one received supplemental feedings around the clock, and Minah gently washed her face after each meal.
She is a wonderful momChatonsOrphelinsMontreal"Thanks to extra feedings, the runt of the litter caught up in weight. Without daily monitoring and the intervention, she wouldn't have made it. Once she was back on track, she happily returned to her mom's loving embrace."Minah adores her foster mom, often reaching out with her paw as if wanting to hold hands.
Minah craves attention from her foster momChatonsOrphelinsMontrealThe three little munchkins are thriving, growing steadily, and becoming more active each day.Minah enjoys spending time with her people, but at the first sound of her kittens' cries, she hurries back to them. In about a week, the little ones will open their eyes and discover the world for the first time.
ChatonsOrphelinsMontrealMinah came to the right place for help that day, and now, she has a loving foster family to support her in raising her final litter. Once she's done with motherhood, she'll be the center of attention, just as she deserves.
