While caring for the kittens, Kali and her friend are working on helping the community cats, including the mom, getting them spayed and neutered.
The six kittens arrived in Kali’s care two weeks later to continue their foster journey.
When all six of them curled up in their giant fluffy bed, forming a cuddle-puddle, they rumbled out a symphony of purrs. The feline siblings washed each other’s faces before nodding off to sleep.
No local shelter or rescue group was able to assist Kali with the kittens as they were working at overcapacity due to kitten season.
With the support of the online community, Kali is able to get the kittens fully vetted and spayed/neutered when they reach an appropriate age.
Four of the kittens are orange tabbies (boys), one is a Siamese-mix (girl), and one is a tortie (girl). “It was like Mama ran out of printer ink, and each orange cat gets lighter until we hit white.”
“He talks more than any kitten I’ve fostered, I think, to be heard over the other five,” Kali told Love Meow.
Cola, the tortie, is a combination of sass, smart and bravery. “She has an opinion about everything and tries to break out of every enclosure she’s been in.”
Needless to say, there has never been a dull moment with these rambunctious troublemakers.
“It’s so much fun watching everyone chase each other around for hours and just be overall wild little kittens. Then after they’ve tired themselves out, to look down at a giant pile of sleeping kittens is the best.”
The little ones will never have to spend another day outside, braving the elements. They are growing by leaps and bounds, thriving in their foster home.
