A feral feline that called a garden home, made the decision to try out life indoors. Before long, she gave birth to a litter of kittens beneath a cozy cat tree.
Anne, a foster kitten enthusiast, shared a heartwarming story on her Instagram page about a family that found a skinny cat in their backyard. The family offered the cat some food, and she decided to stay in their garden to be fed every day. As the cat’s body began to fill out, the family noticed that her belly had also expanded. They suspected that she might be pregnant and contacted their local animal rescue for help. Luckily, Anne was able to take her in through the organization she fosters for.
Meet Penny, the adorable feline who goes by the name @fosterkittens_be on social media. When she was rescued, she had likely never experienced the comfort of being indoors before. Despite her initial shyness towards humans, Penny was accommodated in a cozy and peaceful room by her rescuer, Anne. Several resting spots were set up for her, but she surprisingly preferred the cat tree from the very beginning.
As soon as Anne walked into the room, she noticed how attracted the cat was to the tree. The feline got up from her hideout and headed straight to the food bowl eagerly awaiting her meal. Penny surprised everyone a few days later when she decided to give birth to her kittens under the cat tree instead of using the designated birthing areas.
Under the cozy cat tree, Penny delivered a litter of four plump and lively kittens. Her appetite had been voracious since she first arrived at the family’s house, and it showed in the health of her offspring. Penny was fiercely devoted to her little ones and fiercely guarded their nest from human interference.
Anne, from the Instagram account @fosterkittens_be, would lovingly embrace her kittens to keep them safe in their nest. If any of the curious kittens attempted to wander off, she would gently bring them back to her arms. However, as they grew older and more adventurous, even Anne couldn’t stop them from exploring their surroundings.
Anne, the owner of fosterkittens_be Instagram handle, revealed that when the kittens were about three weeks old, she had the opportunity to interact with them. As they were beginning to move around, they showed an increasing interest in her. Anne shared that the kittens quickly developed a fondness for her. The most daring of the group, Kaya, was the first to approach her, and soon after, the other kittens followed suit.
Meet Kamille, Kaya, and Kiki – three adorable kittens that have found their way into foster care under the loving guidance of Anne from @fosterkittens_be. Although Penny, their mother, was initially hesitant about leaving her kittens with a stranger, she has been keeping a close eye on them as they explore their new environment and grow fond of their foster mom. Even the slightest meow grabs Penny’s attention, prompting her to rush over protectively. These little ladies are full of energy and always eager to discover new things, especially when it comes to getting to know their temporary caregiver.
Anne, the owner of @fosterkittens_be, shared that Kiki and Kaya, two kittens, are eager to explore the world. Kamille, their sister, is a bit hesitant at first but eventually joins in on the fun after seeing her siblings enjoying themselves. However, Koa is a complete mama’s boy and prefers to stay close to his mother’s side. The adorable felines love cuddling with Anne and often climb onto her lap for snuggles or nestle in her arms for more affection.
Anne from the Instagram account @fosterkittens_be revealed that Penny, a cat who wasn’t exposed to socialization at a young age, remains cautious around humans. However, she trusts that her kittens are safe in Anne’s care. Anne added that they will still look for a perfect home for Penny, regardless of whether she becomes more accustomed to people or not.
Koa is quite attached to his mother. According to Anne from @fosterkittens_be, Koa’s mother will undergo spaying and receive all the necessary medical attention. If she chooses not to live indoors with humans, she’ll have a happy life as a barn cat in the care of people who value her. The kittens are still in the process of growing up and developing their feline abilities.
Anne, who runs the Instagram account @fosterkittens_be, shared that Penny has been a great teacher to her kittens. She has shown them how to keep themselves clean and climb up the cat tree where they were born. Penny now enjoys spending time with her little ones on her favorite piece of furniture designed for cats.
