A store’s door with a card saying “free” is sure to catch anyone’s eye. However, the person who opened it was in for a surprise as they found two adorable 3-week-old kittens who were hungry and had a parasite infestation.
In early April 2022, two kittens that were not yet weaned were discovered in a box labeled “free” outside of a supermarket near Lutz, Florida, in the United States. Fortunately, the local rescue organization, AnimalLuvr’s Dream Rescue, was contacted immediately. Sadly, upon arrival, the kittens were found to be in poor health, suffering from starvation and flea infestation. The duration of their abandonment is unknown, but their desperate meows indicated they required nourishment and care urgently. Therefore, the rescue entrusted the two little felines to Nadija, a volunteer, who arranged for them to enter a foster family.
The two kittens that were brought to Nadija’s care were in a state of extreme hunger and distress. Upon their arrival, they were crying uncontrollably and needed immediate attention. Nadija wasted no time and fed them before providing warmth, which helped them fall asleep in each other’s arms.
Initially, the kittens struggled to adapt to the formula milk bottle meant for cats. Despite this, they adjusted within 24 hours. However, things took a turn for the worse when the kittens had some complications that threatened their well-being. Nadija and the vet worked round the clock to ensure the kittens were nursed back to health. With time, the kittens regained their appetite and energy, and they started gaining weight.
Overall, it took a lot of patience, love, and care for the kittens to get back on their feet. Fortunately, Nadija’s warm home provided a conducive environment for the kittens to recover.
Forever bound together, these two young felines have formed an unbreakable bond that will last a lifetime. Despite their ability to form connections with other animals, such as the friendly Nadija German Shepherd, these cats will only be offered for adoption as a pair. Their charming personalities and curious nature make them an adorable duo who are always by each other’s side. As Nadija can attest, these talkative cats love nothing more than exploring their surroundings together.
