A cat turned on his "dad" mode and started caring for kittens in need after moving indoors. Dakota and BunnyFosterBabyCatsDakota, an orange tabby named after the street where he was found, was rescued after surviving on his own for quite some time.Jillian, the founder of FosterBabyCats, gave him a spare room after he was fixed and treated for a wound. Though uncertain if he would adjust to living indoors, she wanted him to experience the comfort and warmth of a home.Before long, he turned on the charm and proved he was meant for indoor life. FosterBabyCatsDakota, estimated to be two years old, had endured the harsh realities of street life. When he was served a plate of freshly boiled chicken, he devoured it, delighted to have a full belly.He was gentle and easygoing with the female cats in the house, happily letting them call the shots. He nestled into Jillian's lap for the first timeFosterBabyCatsTwo days later, Dakota hopped onto the couch beside Jillian. With a gentle nudge of his head, he nestled into her lap, ready for some cuddles. "The first time he started making biscuits and comfort nursing on a soft blanket, I knew he wasn't planning on going back outside."He followed her everywhere, even into the bathroom while she showered, as if he were her little guardian. He follows his foster mom everywhere, even into the bathroomFosterBabyCats"He's very loyal to whoever he claims as his human."When he joined Jillian in the foster room, he found her tending to two tiny rescue kittens. At first, he was unsure about them, but he kept checking in on his foster mom. After a few visits, he decided to lend a paw. FosterBabyCats"The first time I witnessed some softness from him was when I was helping Bunny (tortie) go potty, and he let her grab his neck to comfort her."One day, he settled next to the incubator, inviting Bugs (gray and white kitten) to come closer. After a few sniffs, he tenderly washed his face and groomed his fur. "Now, he comes running to help when he knows it's time for their bottles." FosterBabyCats"I haven't quite figured out if Dakota likes the idea of kittens or if he's just caring for them because he thinks they are my babies, and he's trying to support me. Either option is very sweet, and I appreciate him no matter what the motive."Every night, he comes to help get the kittens ready for bed. "I'm pretty sure Bunny thinks she's exactly the same size as Dakota." Dakota and BunnyFosterBabyCatsThe kittens lean into him whenever he grooms them, soaking up all the affection."It has to be so nice to experience being groomed by another cat for the first time. He has done a spectacular job of keeping them clean and allowing them to experience the love of a 'mom cat'—something I can't replicate as a human foster mom." Dakota and BugsFosterBabyCatsWhether Jillian is relaxing on the couch or making dinner, Dakota wants to be part of the action. "He thinks he's an integral part. Taking a shower? He'll stand watch.""He's only known me for a few months, and he's fiercely loyal. I hope he can find his own forever home with someone who has more time for him; he deserves all the love and attention." FosterBabyCatsDakota has learned to enjoy life and rediscovered his inner kitten. He now plays with toys and the kittens' new furniture, making sure everything is well-tested for when Bunny and Bugs are bigger.But above all, he adores his people, trailing them like their most loyal companion. FosterBabyCats"Dakota is so protective and possessive. He needs a very special home that will adore that about him."He's loving his new life as an indoor cat, showing his human how grateful he is every day with biscuits (kneading), head bumps, and purrs.

A cat was taken in just days before having kittens. Now, she has a great canine assistant wanting to lend a paw. Goldie and her kittensAsaGoldie, the cat, had been left to roam the streets and fend for herself. She often sought refuge at a neighbor's home to escape coyotes. Eventually, she was found to be pregnant.A veterinarian, who also volunteers for Kitten Rescue Life, heard about her plight and went to visit her. Goldie was so sweet that she "tried to jump into the vet's car" as if she was ready to leave the streets behind."She was rescued by the vet and brought into the rescue's care when she was in the last stages of her pregnancy," Asa, a volunteer with Kitten Rescue Life, shared with Love Meow. AsaAsa welcomed Goldie into her care, providing a safe haven where she could raise her kittens.Goldie made herself right at home as if she'd lived there all her life. She became an instant love bug, cuddling up to her foster mom and filling the room with her rumbling purrs. "She's a total purr bucket." AsaA few days later, Goldie went into labor and welcomed three healthy kittens (Barbara, Bernard, and Angel)—adorable mini copies of herself."She's been an absolute doll since she was found, and her personality hasn't changed at all since. She's been the sweetest, most attentive mom to her babies and has been taking amazing care of them. I've been completely hands-off aside from weighing the babies daily." Asa"Goldie is some sort of Manx mix and has no tail, and this new mama is still a baby herself (at about six months old)." Fortunately, this will be her last litter. Like Goldie, Barbara is tailless, while her sibling Bernard sports a full tail, and Angel has a cute little stub.They grew by leaps and bounds, each with a round, roly-poly belly. When they weren't wiggling around, they soaked up plenty of cuddle time with their mom. AsaWith their eyes wide open and ears unfolded, the kittens' curiosity soared.

There's a lot of crawling going on, but it won't be much longer until we have three monkeys bouncing off the walls." AsaAsa's resident dog, Kona, had been patiently waiting to meet the feline family. "I wasn't planning to introduce Goldie to my furballs (resident animals) for a little longer, but she decided it was time to explore the rest of the house.""She wandered out of the foster room and introduced herself to the residents with a polite nose boop." Kona sat there, lovingly gazing at this cute familyAsaKona, the foster kitten extraordinaire, was instantly smitten with Goldie and her precious trio.
