A kitten who lived in a sewer pipe was fortunate enough to be confident enough to approach a family, so her kittens could have a chance at life .
Early in the summer, Jamie Myers, a resident of Spokane, Washington, was on a camping trip with his family when they suddenly saw something strange.
His 10-year-old daughter saw in the distance a small cat that was wandering under the road, exactly in the pipe.
As animal lovers and foster volunteers, Jamie’s family immediately decided to go on an investigation to try and locate the abandoned little feline.
Jamie told:
“We jumped out of the RV and ran back to the road we came in on, to look for this mysterious kitten who was in the wrong place. Several hundred meters back, we found a drainage pipe under the road and we saw in that pipe two little eyes that were looking at us.
They realized they had to help the cat since it was clear that the pipe was not the appropriate spot for an abandoned animal to seek sanctuary. She instantly accepted and ate the meal in minutes after Jamie and her daughter tried to persuade her with some food.
Jamie confirmed: “I “Possibly the simplest rescue we’ve ever carried out. She immediately began to consume the tiny can of food that we had put outdoors. She immediately displayed to us how ravenous, stunning, and emaciated she was.”
The family quickly learned that the animal was carrying a miracle in its tummy through its bones and sagging skin once it emerged through the conduit.
The adorable creature chose to accompany the family around the campsite out of kindness for them; she felt extremely appreciative and wanted to be by her side.
James stated:
She consented to our picking her up and transporting her to our RV, where she spent the weekend. She didn’t think twice about joining us in bed or on the sofa, and she appeared genuinely thankful to have been saved.
It was very likely that the kitten had been abandoned in the drain, because no one claimed her, and perhaps she had been living there for a long time. Fortunately, all that was about to change, as Jamie’s family picked her up from camp and made the decision to bring her home.
The cat, Caki, quickly made improvement over the course of the following several days and grew immensely used to her new foster home. Caki kept close to Jamie’s daughter and showered her with hugs; she no longer needed to worry about anything and could simply be joyful.
Jamie said:
“Just a few days after we brought her home, she shared her secret with us and blessed us with six new little ones. We have experienced so much joy in helping her raise her babies in a safe, loving and happy home.”
Caki had a low milk supply, so her new family helped her bottle-feed her babies throughout the day.
Caki was able to nurse all of her infants after she was more stable and well-fed, and she committed herself to taking care of all of their requirements.
James stated:
“She was an incredible mother; she always knew where her kids were and looked out for them to the best of her ability. She engaged them in continual conversation and spoke a lot.
Caki regularly smothered her babies with love and gave them the required washes to teach them how to eat and drink like a large cat.
When the kittens were old enough to be adopted, they found great permanent homes right away since they were flourishing and growing by leaps and bounds.
As Jamie said:
Two of them even remained with our veterinarian. The time is now to find this wonderful mother her permanent home.
Caki was certainly not having a pleasant time when they found her, but she was trying to survive and save her kittens.
Thankfully, she is now a joyful, healthy, lively, and incredibly loving cat. She has grown a lot and is now prepared to be adopted by a caring family.
James stated:
We believed we were rescuing Caki that day, but we had no clue it would end up being seven lives.
There is no doubt that Jamie and her family changed the lives of Caki and her little kittens, now she just hopes to be adopted as soon as possible.
