Couple finds a cat giving birth on their doorstep

IN Arizonato United States, a couple were surprised to discover a cat lying in front of the door of their house. She was in full labor, ready to give birth to her litter. Without fully understanding why and how, the couple knew they had to act. They carried the cat inside and supported her throughout the birth.

The cat, stressed, did not feed her young

The birth went well, but the mother was very anxious. She did not nurse her babies. The couple who discovered him therefore went to a shelter that was called Jin’s bottle babies. On-site, shelby and her husband Brandon placed the babies in an incubator to keep them warm. They also fed them a bottle of milk.

Once the young were warmed up, they were returned to the mother. “Brandon set up a camera so he could watch from afar and eventually she let the babies nurse“, have explained shelby on lovemeow.

The cat had been abandoned to offer him a better life.

shelby finally got more info on mother cat. “It turns out that the people who dropped her off in mid-birth (on the doorstep) have fallen on hard times and have been living in their car in a park for some time now.“The owners therefore hoped to give the cat family a better life.

One of the cubs did not survive

After birth, all 6 babies in the litter were severely underweight. 3 of them even weighed less than 60 grams. The investment of shelby and her husband saved 5 of them, which was already unexpected.

As for the mother, she took her role very seriously when her anxiety passed. She took very good care of her little ones. In addition, she has adapted very well to her new life and requires a lot of caresses from people.

“Mom is such a sweet cat and we want to find her the best forever home that will love her and pamper her through her days.“, promised shelby.
