They gave a cat a safe place to raise her kittens instead of the shelter, watching her blossom before their eyes.

A calico cat and her four newborns were brought to an animal shelter just after she had given birth.
Knowing how stressful the shelter environment would be for the mom, the staff reached out for help. Ashley, a director of Liberation Cat House, quickly responded and welcomed the family of five into her home.
Though nervous during the car ride, the calico shielded her kittens, keeping them safe and protected.

“Sometimes, if mamas become too stressed, they will stop nursing their kittens. Additionally, kittens have weaker immune systems and are more prone to illness in the shelter,” Ashley shared with Love Meow.
Once the calico settled into her quiet, cozy room, she began to relax, and the wariness in her eyes faded away.
