    Mom cat leads RSPCA worker to her kittens :-D



    RSPCA inspector Jon Knight received a call to rescue a young cat who was thrown from a car in Cambridgeshire last month. The caller had been monitoring and feeding the cat, and managed to confine her in a green house. The cat was taken to a vet and treated for her injuries as well as fleas and worms, and given food. As it was clear she only recently had kittens, she needed to be returned to her location so she could get back to them as soon as possible. Knight took her back to the green house and she started meowing at him. At first, Knight thought she was calling for her kittens, but he soon realized she wanted him to follow her. She led him across fields and gardens all the while calling back and waiting for him to follow. She led him to an old barn. Behind a sack of wood, there were four kittens. Jolie, as she is now called, and her kittens are now staying at the RSPCA Block Fen Animal Centre. They will remain there until they are fit and healthy enough to be adopted. “Jolie had been through an awful lot, but she showed real maternal instinct and determination, she really is a remarkable cat,” Kight said.

    What a good mom she is. And how lucky that someone who know about cats found her. They're safe and sound. The kittens are adorable!

    God bless Jolie and her kittens, the person who rescued her, and the RSPCA.

    oh My! What a good mama cat she is, so caring. I hope the kittens and mama find good homes. She really loves her babies... very touching. Yes, cats and dogs could teach some human mothers a lesson in love and responsibility.
