Sadly, cat moms sometimes abandon their newborn kittens for various reasons. Sometimes they know the kitten won’t make it, however sometimes as first-time moms, they can feel overwhelmed.
Today’s story begins with such circumstances. A man found a tiny newborn kitten, left on the sidewalk to await its final moments.

This kind-hearted man was determined to help. He immediately brought the kitten home ready to become a full-time foster dad.
Now, I’ve tackled fostering before, and let me tell you – newborn kittens need special care. Luckily, this caring man was more than ready for this task! As he said in his video:
“Taking care of such a small kitten requires a lot of patience.”

He started feeding and warming up the little one. He would place the kitten softly in his hand so he could nurse peacefully.
He even set up a reminder every two hours – just so he could bottle-feed his foster baby. Such determination!
The first two weeks were only about bottle feeding and helping the little one go potty. Since newborn kittens can’t pee and poop by themselves and usually, mama cat is there to help.

However, according to PetMD, when foster parents care for newborn kittens they need to stimulate the little ones so they don’t end up constipated. That’s exactly what his foster dad did!
The man was eager to see the little ginger fuzzball finally open his eyes. In the meantime, he made sure to provide him with all the cuddles in the world, and the kitten’s favorite nap spot was his dad’s hand!
After almost a week the ginger furball finally opened his eyes, making his foster dad super happy! He even started purring in his sleep. How adorable, right?

Following these small but significant milestones, the kitten gradually became more active. He learned how to walk, however he quickly got tired and still needed his dad’s hand to nap!
After a month spent together, the man went from foster dad to forever dad – the little fuzzball was there to stay.

Once the kitten started discovering the world around him, he became a real mischievous tornado around the house. He even learned how to open the tap and help himself with some water! His dad didn’t mind his adventures at all, as he said:
“This should be the happiest time of his life.”
Thanks to his dad, this handsome ginger boy lives a happy, carefree life! His favorite pastimes are chasing his tail and playing with his dad, however, this ginger fuzzball also likes nibbling on furniture.
However, sometimes he is just sitting around, almost as if he is thinking about important cat stuff. As his forever dad said:
“He will also space out and contemplate alone.”

I am so happy the man found him before it was too late and provided him with everything a cat deserves. Make sure to help kittens in need either by contacting your local shelter or providing them with a furrever home!

Disfigured Kitten Ignored For Being ‘Too Ugly’ Finds Her Hero In A Seven-Year-Old Girl
Isn’t it amazing how kids, even though they’re small, can have hearts as big as the sky? Like this time when a stray kitten struggled on the streets, with no one bothering to lend her a helping hand.
Her facial deformities were enough to scare people away, deeming her too ugly to even spare a glance. Yet, when a seven-year-old girl came along, everything changed. Let me tell you all about it!

A sweet little girl spotted an abandoned kitten huddled between garbage cans. She was emaciated and famished as if she hadn’t eaten in days. With those big, soulful eyes, she seemed to yearn for a loving touch.
Without a moment’s hesitation, the girl scooped her up and took her home. Determined to make things right, she begged her dad to help save this innocent life.

They rushed her to the vet, where her condition shocked everyone. This horribly disfigured kitty was covered in mites, missing an upper lip and an ear, and struggled to open her right eye, all due to a severe worm infestation.
Yet, the caring vet staff didn’t want to give up on her. They treated her with the necessary medication and decided to do their best to reconstruct her facial deformities.

After a lengthy surgery, they managed to fix up the worst of her injuries, setting her on a path to recovery. And that little girl who rescued her? Well, she wasn’t just any passerby…
This girl couldn’t bear to part with her furry friend, especially now when this tiny bundle of fur looked so adorable. After all, who wouldn’t want to continue nurturing such a heartwarming bond?
So, her family welcomed the kitten into their loving home and made her an integral part of their family. They named her Gülümser, which means ‘she who always smiles’.
For the first time, Gülümser experienced the warmth of belonging. Surrounded by love and care, she flourished in her forever home. She also found solace in a ginger feline friend, with whom she formed a special connection.

Gone was that malnourished kitten scavenging in the trash. Gülümser’s devoted family turned her life around, giving her the second chance she deserved to become a happy and healthy kitty.
Now, Gülümser not only wears a different face but also leads a new life. Even though she lacks an upper lip and one ear, you’d never know it by the confident way she carries herself.
Gülümser adores every moment of her new life and revels in little joys that fill her days. She’s blossomed into a beautiful cat, incredibly grateful and affectionate.
It’s all thanks to her rescuer, that sweet little girl with a heart of gold who saw beyond her rough exterior to recognize the beauty within.

These two are now inseparable and share a bond that can’t be broken. They’re bound by endless love, proving that kindness truly changes lives.
