It was a typical day in Vincent’s life when something extraordinary happened. He noticed a stray cat going into the doggy door of his house. The cat went, but to his surprise, she returned with one kitten in her mouth a few minutes later. The man assumed that would end it, but he was wrong. The cat returned to the house with more and more kittens until all five were inside!
Vincent was amazed by the cat’s loyalty to her kittens and decided to take them all in. He put a warm blanket in a large box for them, and they immediately curled together.
After Vincent contacted a local rescue organization, they helped him care for a mama cat named Tala and her five kittens. He fed them fresh water; the kittens snuggled next to their mother in a box to sleep. By involving rescuers, he ensured that Tala and her babies were cared for until they could be adopted into loving homes.
Tala and her five children–Maui, Moana, Neilani, Ohana, and Kiko – wafted from one foster care home to the next. Tala never let up on her responsibility to love and care for each of them.
Since then, all of Tala’s children have grown up and been adopted, but Tala still needs a loving home. She is a sweet cat who loves attention.
This heartwarming story reminds me of the loyalty and love that animals are capable of.
