Shelly who has been rescuing animals for over 12 years, was recently contacted about three kittens desperately needing help.

A Good Samaritan found them wandering outside with no mother in sight. After scouring the area, they spotted the cat mom, but she showed no interest in caring for her babies.

The kittens’ eyes were crusted shut due to infections, and they were underweight. Shelly rushed to pick up the smallest kitten and provided critical care, and returned to tend to the other two.

Despite having her hands full caring for 16 rescues at the time, she couldn’t leave the kittens to fend for themselves.

“I decided to take them home. Knowing they had just turned three weeks, I thought they would soon enough be able to start weaning,” Shelly shared with Love Meow.

“I continued with a bottle for a few weeks more, whilst introducing mixed wet food. I named them Polly, Cloud and Destiny.”

Despite Shelly’s herculean efforts to save them all, the runt of the litter, Destiny, sadly lost her fight. Polly and Cloud took to the bottle straightaway, filling their bellies to the brim at each feeding.
With improved appetites and proper treatment, Polly and Cloud started to heal. Their eyes cleared up, their bodies strengthened, and their energy levels soared.

She strutted about with her tail held high as she explored around. Her brother Cloud was at her heels, his curious gaze scanning the place. They learned to eat from a dish and figured out the art of the litter box together.

Polly and Cloud made a full recovery and bloomed into boisterous young cats. They befriended many foster kitties, some of which took them under their wings.

When it was time to find them a loving home, Donna, a previous adopter, surprised Shelly when she inquired about four kittens.

Donna fell head over heels for Polly and Cloud as well as two of their foster friends, and couldn’t bear to separate them.

A week ago, the foursome was officially adopted and moved into their forever home.
“It’s not everyday that you get someone who offers four of them a home… It’s an opportunity that you just can’t let go.”

In less than a week, the quartet has settled wonderfully into their new home (now with six cats), scampering around the place, playing to their hearts’ content.
