“Once the babies are weaned, she will be desexed and returned to her owners,” Nikki of Best Friends Felines shared. “One of our carers picked up the cat named Rico. She was a little unsettled and unsure what was happening. But within 48 hours, she was doing roly-poly antics for tummy tickles and pats.”
Rico dove right into mommy duties, feeding six hungry mouths and keeping them immaculately clean. She continued to seek affection from her foster carer, her main source of support, every time she came into the room.
“She loves her cuddles and will come for pats, but rushes back to the babies if they make a peep as she is a wonderful and attentive mother.”
Rico stuck close to her kittens and rarely left their side for the first week. She wolfed down the food served in bed and was refueled throughout the day.
