Today something happened that I will remember for the rest of my life.
A lovely lady came today with the intention of adopting little Daisy. She was already in love with her sweet little face, who wouldn’t be? But after she read my post about how mama cats are so often left behind, something in her heart shifted. She messaged me and said the words I never expected but always hoped to hear:
“Can I adopt Clover and Daisy together?”
I actually had to read it twice. My heart dropped, my eyes filled, and I just sat there for a moment trying to take it in. Because as happy as I always am when the babies find homes, it absolutely breaks me when the mummas are left behind. They pour their entire bodies and hearts into raising their babies, protecting them, feeding them, loving them, only to watch them all get adopted while they sit waiting, wondering what they did wrong.
So today… today was different.
Today Clover didn’t get left behind.
Today Clover didn’t have to say goodbye forever.
Today she gets to walk into her new life with her baby still by her side.
I’m honestly so overwhelmed. I can’t explain the feeling. It’s relief, joy, gratitude, and love all mixed together. Seeing a mumma cat valued just as much as her kitten means the world to me. It reminds me why I do this, why I fight for every single one of them, why my heart stays so heavy and so full at the same time.
Clover and Daisy get to stay together.
A mother and daughter, safe, loved, and wanted. Her other babies are going to homes with other kitties just the most beautiful outcome I could ever wish for.
I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect ending for these two. My heart is bursting. ❤️
Thank you so much Jen you are my hero and made my whole year.
