When Nala was just a baby, she was left in a dirt alley by her owners and had to fend for herself. Usually, kittens who find themselves in these predicaments are not long for this world. Fortunately, Nala’s cries were heard before it was too late. The cat was taken to the good folks at Spokane County Regional Animal Protection Service. This poor kitten had yet to learn about the wonders of true love.

Nala was about to find out about the joys of having a mother to call her own, though. In fact, she was fortunate enough to have two mothers! Since she had been found as a baby, she was placed with a local foster family. This would increase her chances of survival significantly. Jamie saw the cat’s story on Facebook and knew that she would need to help out.

She figured that Nala would fit right in with her makeshift family and she was correct! Jamie was fostering a mother of her own. This mama had lost some of her babies recently. From the looks of it, she was more than happy to have a replacement. The two became closely bonded immediately. Nala began to nurse with her new mother right away, without issue.

The mother cat and her biological children were a bit older than Nala. They were ready for their forever home before she was. “She did everything later than the rest of the group,” Jamie says. At this time, Jamie had also just taken in a dog. Izzy had a litter of her own to take care of but there was room for Nala in her heart. The two developed an awesome connection of their own.

Izzy did not want Nala to be alone in the world. Their interactions are priceless. Izzy just assumed that Nala was one of her own babies and she would always place her back among the puppies before she had a chance to get lonely. Jamie was sure to monitor their interactions. Izzy never once displayed any hostility towards the happy kitten.

Once Nala got a bit older, she was finally ready for her own adoption. Of course, Izzy was not ready to let her new child go. That’s when Jamie brought in a pair of kittens that needed the same sort of love that Nala had required. Izzy is living proof that a mother’s love transcends all boundaries.
