The move is being characterized as a shake-up, but was seemingly inevitable in retrospect.

A woman opened her home to six orphaned kittens from a shelter, determined to give them the life they deserved. Penny RichardsAt just four days old, six tiny kittens were brought to the county shelter by animal control. Without their mother, their survival depended entirely on round-the-clock bottle feedings.With resources stretched thin, shelter staff sent out an urgent email to local rescues. When Tails High, a volunteer-run group, saw the plea, they began searching for a fosterer, and Penny Richards quickly stepped up to help.Thanks to a transport volunteer, all six kittens were rescued that same day and delivered safely into Penny's care. Penny RichardsTheir eyes were still closed, but as soon as they were settled into a cozy incubator, their little bodies relaxed. Although their mother was never found, they learned to latch onto the bottles with determination. Named after characters from The NeverEnding Story, they began their own magical adventure now in warmth and comfort.Moonchild was the smallest of the litter, but she had the biggest voice and wasn't afraid to use it. MoonchildPenny RichardsPenny catered to their every need, even taking them to work so she could keep up with their demanding feeding schedule. The kittens never missed a meal and quickly grew big and strong.They wiggled around with newfound energy, scrambling over one another the moment they woke up. After each feeding, they'd flop onto their backs, waving their tiny legs blissfully in the air. Penny RichardsThey soon outgrew their incubator and graduated to a playpen with plenty of space to explore.At 3-4 weeks old, the kittens began learning to use the litter box and playing in slow motion. They rolled around like drunken sailors, pounced on each other to spark wrestling matches, and frequently fell asleep mid-tussle. "I could watch them for hours," Penny shared. Penny RichardsMoonchild proved to be the boldest explorer, scampering off to investigate anything new. Atreyu, the shyest, preferred the comfort of Penny's lap, where he soaked up face rubs and cuddles. Morla, the spirited torbie, was a force of nature. "She'll chase everyone around and then climb up my legs for all the cuddles and attention."After tiring themselves out, the kittens would pile together for a group nap. "They can always be found sleeping in a big cuddle puddle, and are never apart from each other." Penny RichardsWhenever Penny enters the room, they race toward her, greeting her like an enthusiastic, meowing choir. "They are a sweet, loving, and brave group of kittens who can't help but make friends with everyone they meet."Their favorite spot in the house is right on Penny's lap. Sometimes, all six manage to settle onto her at once, purring in perfect harmony. "They love climbing onto my lap and having a big group cuddle." Atreyu, Falkor, Artax, Bastian, Moonchild, and MorlaPenny RichardsFalkor, the chonkiest of the bunch, insists on lap snuggles before zooming off to play. Bastian has finally given up his bottle, and now, he bounces around with his siblings like a tiny whirlwind.After playtime, Artax likes to snooze on his foster mom with his belly up for rubs. Artax snoozes away on Penny's lap with other foster friends aroundPenny RichardsJust weeks ago, these six kittens were in a shelter, their futures uncertain. Now, they're spending their first holiday season surrounded by friends, affection, and endless lap time.Soon, they will be ready for their next chapter: their forever homes. Penny hopes they'll be adopted in pairs so each kitten will always have a companion. AtreyuPenny RichardsWith a second chance at life, the six little orphans are thriving. They've transformed from the most vulnerable in the shelter to joyful, bright little sunbeams, radiating life. Penny RichardsShare this story with your friends.
