Kitten is Found in a Basket at a Park and Shortly After He is Accepted by a Cat and Her Litter of Six
At just a few days old، the kitten desperately needed round-the-clock care and a mother’s love. To ensure his best chance at survival، they decided to try introducing him to the nursing mom.
Lucy promptly came running to the sound of the little singleton and started cleaning him from head to toe.

“She immediately accepted this little peanut into her family. We are so thankful to her for giving this orphan a home،” Aimee shared with Love Meow.
The baby، Rerun (named after the youngest of the Peanuts characters)، was brought to the nest، and Lucy lay down on her side to let him nurse.

Rerun perked up as he vigorously kneaded away on Mama’s belly. In no time، he was seen snuggling with his new siblings in an adorable cuddle-puddle.
Lucy was instantly enamored of the new addition to the family، doting on him alongside her own.

Being the youngest of the clowder، Rerun needs some help to keep up with his food intake. Aimee has started supplementing him while Lucy works on the rest.
“While mama has accepted him، he’s smaller than the rest and struggles to fight his way to the milk bar. So I pulled him to bottle-feed him، and he immediately took to it.”

Lucy comes to watch Rerun as he gobbles down the formula، waiting to give his face a thorough wash.
“He knows bottles، so someone must have been bottle-feeding him. I’m so curious what the backstory is. Mama Lucy and I will be co-parenting this little one.”

Despite being just palm-sized، Rerun has a strong motor and rumbles with his purrs after every feeding. “His eyes are just about to open، so he’s about a week to ten days old.”

With the help of many people and a doting cat، Rerun is doing wonderfully، making good gains and snuggling all day.
He has a big family to keep him company and two moms to raise him and watch him grow.
