Late last month, a calico kitten was discovered abandoned by a dumpster, in desperate need of rescue. A Good Samaritan scooped her up and brought her to safety.
At around 2.5 weeks old, the kitten required round-the-clock bottle feeding to ensure proper nourishment and development. She also needed a warm environment to help regulate her body temperature.
The finder tried to care for the kitten but had little success. Not being sufficiently equipped, they sought assistance from the animal rescue community.

Nadija who volunteers for , learned about the plight of the kitten and stepped up to help.
She set out to collect the kitten that evening, only to encounter a frustrating car malfunction. “Thankfully, my friend came to the rescue, and we drove an hour each way to pick up this little kitten,” Nadija shared.

After a long night, the little calico was ensconced in her comfortable, heated nest covered in soft blankets. She had snuggle plushies to keep her company and a foster mom to make sure that she was loved.
The kitten fell asleep with a full belly, curled up in a cocoon of warmth and contentment.

The sweet calico was an excellent bottle baby. She never made a fuss during meal time, savoring each drop with a contented purr.
As the kitten nursed from the bottle, her body relaxed in her foster mom’s hand. She drank with gusto until her tummy was filled to the brim.

Satiated by her meal, the calico rolled onto her back, wriggling gleefully and baring her plump and cuddly belly.
In less than two weeks, she began to show interest in eating from a dish, lapping up the grub, a mixture of formula and canned food, with fervor.

She pounced on toys that were the size of her body and tussled with them with playful ferocity.
