A pair of bonded kittens insisted on staying together after being rescued.

Earlier this summer, a litter of kittens was brought to the Animal Welfare League of Arlington in Arlington, Virginia for a chance at a better life. Volunteers at their Kitten College program worked tirelessly around the clock to care for them.

Two smaller litter mates were in need of extra attention. Lauren Strycula, a foster volunteer of the rescue, stepped in to help and brought them home.

The little bundles of fur huddled up, keeping each other comforted for the first few days. They were so tiny and fragile and had a few health issues to battle. Jace, the little brother, had a rough start and took a while to figure out how to eat from a bottle. Jackie, the sister, would wriggle up to his side to keep him company.

A tiny kitten was brought to Animal Welfare League of Arlington, in need of foster care. While being cared for at their Kitten College program, they noticed that he had difficulty eating, staying upright and wasn’t gaining weight at the rate that he should.

They immediately reached out to Nova Cat Clinic (in Arlington, Virginia) as they have a program, Chris Griffey Memorial Feline Fund, that provides help to kittens in critical condition.

“We did our basic intake exam and lab work and noticed he had a small systemic infection which our veterinarians prescribed antibiotics for,” Ellen Carozza, a Feline Licensed Veterinary Technician at Nova Cat Clinic, told Love Meow.

Wrenn Rescues (in Southern California) was contacted, and their foster volunteer, Jen Marder, immediately opened her home to the feline family. “The kittens were 3.5 weeks old and very small and skinny for their age, but they were super alert and active,” Jen shared with Love Meow.

A kitten who was found in a field, snuggled up to a young man and wouldn’t let go.

Sunny @iamchimera407

Malia from New York was at Co-Op City Field in the Bronx for her son’s baseball game when she heard commotion from a crowd. A litter of kittens were found huddled up together in the field.

The kittens were covered in filth and just skin and bones. There was no sign of a mother cat, so Malia contacted Sunny, a local animal rescuer, for help. “She and her husband rushed the little ones over to me. My son (CJ Sung) and I took them in and bathed and bottle-fed all of them,” Sunny told Love Meow.

The kittens were around three weeks old and needed round-the-clock care. In just one day, they began to perk up. One of them quickly stood out.

A kitten who came from a rough beginning, blossomed into a happy, cuddly, rambunctious young cat.

Newt the kitten was three weeks old when she was brought to the municipal shelter in Las Vegas. Her eyes were crusted shut, and her left eye was severely infected. She was very tiny, sick and frail, and was given a grim prognosis by the vet.

They immediately reached out to Nikki Martinez, an experienced fosterer for Hearts Alive Village Las Vegas, and asked if she could help.

“I could tell immediately that she had an incredible will to live,” Nikki told Love Meow. “I didn’t know what her future would hold, but I was going to give her a fighting … Read the rest

“They were pretty shy when I first got them, though they let me pick them up to wipe their faces and give them medicine,” Jan told Love Meow. “Fig loves to cuddle with his sister. He started out a bit small for his age but had a good appetite … Read the rest

It is rather important to understand your canine’s completely different grooming wants. For many homeowners, dogs are greater than just a pet, they’re part of the family. That’s why choosing the right dog breed for you shouldn’t be a rushed resolution. Your canine will come to like its crate if you’ll simply make a transfer to put it in there. Dogs want to have their particular little place where they will lay comfortably and really feel safe. Even canines within the wild are recognized to locate themselves in burrows or inside hollows of tree trunks. Canines which are placed in open massive open spaces turn into stressed with keeping track of their domain. A number of historic native British breeds together with the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, the Boxer and the Border Terrier have all been bumped from the UK’s prime 10 dogs in recent years, in accordance with current … Read the rest

A stray cat brought her kittens to a family’s backyard so their lives could be saved.

Catsnip Etc

A family from Indiana discovered a stray cat living in their backyard but she was not alone. Two kittens with curly hair were huddled up next to her while she tried to keep them safe from the elements of the outdoors.

The family tried to feed them but realized that they needed immediate medical attention. The kittens had an upper respiratory infection, stomach issues, and were covered in fleas. Catsnip Etc, a TNR (trap-neuter-return) rescue in Indiana, was then contacted for help.
