Mother Cat Lost All Her Kittens, Then This Orphan Newborn Showed Up

ADVERTISEMENT

Meet Flame, the sick kitten who was taken to the Atlanta Humane Society (AHS) and needed a miracle to survive – and that miracle came in the form of Ember, a very special mamma cat. Just a week before Mother’s Day, the older feline experienced a tragedy when all her newborn kitties died. “She had lost all of her babies,” Christina Hill, director of marketing and communications for AHS, told The Dodo, ”but not her motherly instinct.” So, when the time came for Ember to meet Flame, the sick kitten, it’s no surprise that she started showering the tiny thing with love.

“Pairing her and Flame up was the best thing for the both of them,” Hill told Bored Panda. “The grieving mom immediately took to the tiny kitten, grooming him, cuddling him and letting him nurse.”

Both the mother and baby feline are in foster care and will be up for adoption soon. “It’d be absolutely adorable if they could be adopted together,” Hill said. “They would love it! And two cats is always better than one.”

It reminds me of a similar story I've seen on TV, on a show about animals, mostly pets and domesticated ones, but not always. Someone rushed in in an animal hospital to save a cat that has just had a car accident. Turns out she was a pregnant cat, and that accident made her lose all her babies. The cat, however, was successfully saved and would recover without any problems. Then, they happened to have a very tiny kitten, who also lost its mother, so they carefully gave that kitten to the new mother cat. She was a bit surprised at first, and then, close up of the camera filming her actual tears, and the cat soon adopted the baby as her own.
