A cat arrived at a rescue with kittens in tow, and is now hoping for her own happily-ever-after this Christmas. Sally and her kittensCatz 4 LifeA beautiful calico named Sally came to Catz 4 Life, an all-volunteer rescue, with six kittens in tow.Feeding six hungry mouths was no easy task, and Sally was clearly exhausted and in need of support. At six weeks old, the kittens began to wean, but they still swarmed their mom, climbing over her, wrestling for attention, and playfully batting at her tail."She was worn out from caring for all of them, so many mouths to feed, and now they were active, bouncy babies," Aimee, president of the rescue, told Love Meow. Catz 4 LifeSally was more than ready to share her motherly duties with someone she trusted, so she could finally focus on herself. The moment Aimee stepped in, the kittens gathered beside her, forming a cozy cuddle pile before purring themselves to sleep."I was glad to start sharing some of the work." Catz 4 LifeWhile checking the litter, Aimee was surprised to discover that all six kittens were girls: four calicos and two with adorable cow-like markings.With her kittens in good hands, Sally began to relax and spend more time with her people. She'd flop onto her side, making "biscuits" in the air and soaking up every bit of affection she could get. Catz 4 LifeThe kittens soon grew into tiny whirlwinds, racing across the room, scaling cat trees, and launching themselves into the air to catch feather toys. But whenever Aimee sat down, one by one, they climbed into her lap as if drawn by a magnet, until she was covered in fur and happy purrs.As adoption time approached, Aimee hoped each kitten would find a home with a buddy. Then one day, she received an inquiry from a familynot for one kitten, but for three. Catz 4 LifeThe family had shared their home with elderly cats for many years and, at one point, had five ruling the roost. After recently saying goodbye to another beloved cat, they found themselves missing the joy of a lively, cat-filled home."With only one 15-year-old cat remaining, they were ready to breathe new life into their home." Trinket, Thingamabob, and KnickknackCatz 4 LifeThey reached out about Trinket, Thingamabob, and Knickknack, three sisters who were always up to adventure and mischief.The trio quickly settled into their new home, zipping around, leaping onto furniture, and filling every corner with playful chaos. "It's a rare triple adoption, but sometimes they do happen. Trinket, Thingamabob, and Knickknack will be fully spoiled." Trinket, Thingamabob, and Knickknack at their forever homeCatz 4 LifeMeanwhile, Mama Sally rediscovered her playful side and even joined in games with her kittens. "She's a little over a year old. Now that her kittens are older and able to play more, she runs and jumps and plays."She even tries to lure them into chasing her, as if she were one of the youngsters herself. Catz 4 Life"She's also a lover. I sit on a pillow on the floor and lean against the bed when I visit. She will lie on the bed behind me and just purr and purr, rubbing her face on my shoulder and making sure I give her attention too."Sally will never have to raise another litter. From now on, she can enjoy being in the spotlight, cherished and pampered. Catz 4 LifeSally and her remaining three calicos, Gizmo, Doodad, and Gadget, are ready to find their forever families and enjoy this special time of year, filled with love and holiday cheer.
