A disаbIеdd pregnant cat was walking down the street, barely able to move her back legs. Heartbroken to see her in such a condition, a good Samaritan decided to take care of the poor feline.
They took the cat to the vet to ensure she received the necessary care. The examination revealed a fracture of the hind leg that hadn’t healed properly, resulting in a permanent disability.
Since she was pregnant, the vet warned about potential difficulties she might face while giving birth due to her injured back leg.
The kitty, now named Pingguo, went into labor very shortly afterward. Her rеscuеrs were with her every step of the way, assisting her during the whole process.
They were a bit surprised, though, when she kept having contractions one kitten after the other. Seven hours and 6 healthy kittens later, the brave mama could finally relax.
Substitute Mama Saves The Day
However, the idyll didn’t last long, as Pingguo showed concerning symptoms only a day after giving birth. She had trouble breathing and had to go to the vet clinic again.
The issue was potentially life-thrеаtening and required serious measures. Pingguo had postpartum hypocalcemia, a severe condition that prevented her from nursing her newborn babies further.
The kittens had to be separated from their sick mom until she stabilized. Since they were too little to survive without a mother, the only option was to find another nursing cat who would hopefully accept them.
Fortunately, another cat named Black And White had given birth to two kittens a while before. The rеscuе team introduced them, hoping to “sneak” an additional six into her litter.
Black And White was an amazing mother with strong nursing instincts and she instantly accepted the new babies. She started nursing them, unfazed by the obvious size difference between her kittens and newcomers.
Meanwhile, Pingguo was going through a difficult time being separated from her babies. She desperately searched for them everywhere, but the babies weren’t coming back…at least for a while.
