Scarlet, a tabby cat, and her sole kitten Scout, who was only a few days old, were brought to the volunteer-run Ashley’s Kitten Academy animal rescue facility in Seattle, Washington, in early March.

Scarlet was apprehensive and afraid at first, but after meeting her new family, she became more calm and even purred quietly. Scout enjoyed her mother’s whole attention and care; she lavished him with affection and gave him nice showers to keep him clean.

“It’s not every day that you see a mother with a child. This little boy is going to end himself in a lot of trouble. Scarlet was in serious need of medical help. On one side, there was a huge suspicious bulge, and on the other, there was a matted smear.”

After visiting the veterinarian, they determined that the lump was an abscess, and Scarlet swiftly recovered with treatment and medicine, as well as adequate care, good food, and a warm, comfy bed. His personality began to flourish soon after.

Scarlet is missing her top canines, so when she sees her people, she stretches out her tongue and gives them very nice glances.

Ashley explains:

“When I enter into the room, she purrs and looks for rubs on her back, delighted to see me.”

The kitty immediately recovered and had much more energy to devote to care for her one and only kitten. When he was suckled by his mother, the inquisitive feline swiftly learnt to let out his purr and switched it on.

Scout immediately put on weight, acquired strength, and began walking and investigating everything. Sweet Scarlet reassured him with gentle pats on the back, giving him the confidence to keep going.

Scout weighed just over a pound by the time she was three weeks old. Scarlet made it a point to eat regularly, and it was beginning to show.

Ashley explains:

“He’s rather large for his age, but that’s not surprising given that he’s the only one in the milk bar.”

Scout was maturing and expressing her playful side, and her mother was expressing her inner kitty as well, and the two of them had a lovely time playing. Scarlet was seen racing about and dropping her toys, then retrieving them to give with her cat, according to Ashley, who installed a camera in the room.

Scout continues to mature and learn to be a well-behaved kitten under the watchful eye of her mother.

Ashley guarantees:

“Now he has more toys, and I’m looking forward to giving him more space to play with.” Scarlet is a wonderful mother, and Scout is a fat, happy little boy. She looks after him quite well.” Scarlet and her one kitten are doing well in their foster home and are extremely content. After everything she’s been through, Mama Cat has bloomed. She loves being pampered and having her tummy rubbed, and she greets her host family with a grateful grin every morning.
