Wally and Eva were discovered by a kind woman who had heard a meow coming from a trash bag. She entered and discovered three kittens huddled together.
They were taken to the Whitley County Humane Society by a caring woman. The other two were in bad health, and one of the three ceased trying to survive.
Barb offered to assist as a volunteer at the shelter. She was informed that the kittens might not make it when she went to pick them up. In an effort to preserve the infants’ lives, she carried them home.
Weak Wally, in any incomprehensible situation, clung to his stronger sister. “His eyes looked like he was about to give up. He did not meet my eyes, bowed his head low and cried in an unhappy, hoarse voice, Barb recalls. “We had to feed Wally through a straw because he didn’t drink from a bottle.”
Throughout the first week of their recovery, the kids did not leave each other a single step.
Wally was already able to consume some pureed beef from a spoon the next day, according to Barb.
Eva frequently purred and hugged her brother, seemingly trying to cheer him up, showing how protective she was of him. “Wally wouldn’t be here right now if it weren’t for Eve. She gave him a new lease of life.
For some time, the kittens were unable to walk normally and needed massage therapy to strengthen their limbs.
Once they were strong enough to explore their surroundings, Eve encouraged Wally to play and even run. Together they gained a lot of healthy weight and enough strength.
Multi-toed Wally surprised his doctor with an amazing will to live. She again became like a kitten, every day there was playfulness and mischief in him.
“Their eyes are now shining, their meow is no longer plaintive and hoarse, but sonorous and happy,” says Barb.
These two always stick together or very close to each other,” says Barb. – Eva entertains herself, she is one of those girls with whom everyone wants to chat at a party. Wally is a sweet and quiet kid, the kind you never know what he’s thinking by looking at his face.”
Over the following weeks, the siblings blossomed and were fully mature enough to socialize with other foster kittens.
Barb understood that the unbreakable pair had to continue to be unbreakable when it came time to consider seeking adoptive parents.
Happily, a decent family came along and fell in love with the two of them. Valli and Eve ultimately realized their goal after a difficult start to life and several weeks of therapy.
No one expected that the kittens would survive, but they both did the impossible, becoming a healthy, beautiful cat and kitty.
Today they are happy to rush around their new home and follow on the heels of their beloved foster dad.
