When a shelter found a cardboard box that had been taped shut but had air holes poked in it, the staff knew what was inside. They carefully removed the tap ensuring that they didn’t harm whatever animals had been abandoned in the box. Inside, there was a mother cat with two baby kittens.
She set the family up with an ideal set up for the mom to grow and thrive while also continuing to care for the kittens. But once they gave the mother cat a health assessment, they discovered that she was pregnant. The staff calculated that the mother had become pregnant shortly after birthing her two kittens.
Watch the video to learn what happens next for this mother and her two babies at the shelter.
It’s rare for mother cats to become pregnant so shortly after giving birth.
