There were four adorable kittens that used to live outside and didn’t like to be approached, but something magical happened, and their perspective changed.
Four adorable kittens named Pumpkin, Spice, Boo, and Casper recently made their way to the UC Davis Veterinary Hospital ER. These furry felines were found in the wild without their mother and were only five weeks old when they arrived at the hospital. The kittens were understandably cautious around humans and kept their distance by hissing and spitting, while also trying to hide from view. Luckily, the Yolo County SPCA stepped in to help these little ones. Thanks to the kindness of their foster volunteer, Angela, the kittens are now safe and being taken care of in a warm and loving home.
The kittens were discovered outdoors without their mother. Angela took care of them by placing them in a calm and peaceful area, allowing them to relax. When they came out of their carrier, they were scared, with their fur raised and ears flat against their heads. They sought comfort by huddling together in a box while gazing at their foster mother with wide eyes.
Upon their arrival in foster care, the kittens were extremely frightened. Angela noticed that even the slightest movement she made would cause them to sound the alarm with a series of hisses. She surmised that they had not been exposed to humans before, as they were quick to hide behind the litter box and react defensively whenever someone attempted to approach or pet them. Angela relayed this information to Love Meow.
The tabbies were unfriendly and refused to be touched, hissing and spitting at any attempts. However, Angela soon appeared with a tempting offer: cat treats. Pumpkin, one of the tabbies, reluctantly tried a bite but was quickly won over and eagerly devoured more. With each lick of the tasty treat, her demeanor changed from scared to content.
Following this, Angela surprised them with some delicious treats. Boo, Spice and Casper were a bit hesitant at first but eventually mustered the courage to try them out. Gradually, they began to realize that humans weren’t all that bad. They went from being hostile towards Angela to eagerly meowing at her whenever she walked into the room, as Angela recounted to Love Meow.
As soon as they indulged in some treats, the four kitties began to unwind and their anxiety dissipated. Angela noticed that one of them, Casper, even started purring at the mere sight of her. Gradually, Casper and Boo emerged as the more daring ones, paving the way for Spice and Pumpkin to follow their lead. Their inner explorers were awakened and they started to enjoy the comforts of indoor living.
At first, the kittens were hesitant to receive affection and displayed their apprehension through hissing and spitting. However, as time passed, they began to enjoy being petted and discovered the joys of purring loudly. Spice, in particular, took the longest to acclimate, but with the aid of playtime and nourishment, she eventually shed her timidity and became a sweet and loving kitten. The experience of witnessing Spice’s initial purr was a significant accomplishment for all involved.
Within a short period of time, these four furry friends have become quite the lively crew, eager for any bit of affection or snacks they can get from their foster parent Angela. They now frolic about their playpen without a care in the world, radiating happiness and joy.
Angela’s kittens are not afraid to express themselves. Among them, Angela Boo stands out as the most enthusiastic maker of biscuits. Her paws move in a steady and soothing rhythm, and as she purrs contentedly with half-closed eyes, she brings comfort not just to the blanket beneath her, but to anyone within earshot.
Angela is amazed at Boo’s biscuit-making skills. The kittens, who were once scared, have now turned into a loving and confident group. They welcome their foster mother with headbutts full of love and joyfully turn their room into a tranquil, purring paradise.
Angela shared that when she gives attention to one kitten, the rest of the litter will come meowing for their fair share of pets as well.
