Having lost her own kittens, this cat had vowed to never accept another, but fate had a different plan as she formed a heartwarming bond with a little orphan.
Born on a breeding farm, poor Fedora was only an instrument of reproduction for her owners. Each of her litters was taken from her, so her mothering instinct gradually faded away. It was only once she was out of her hell that she could begin to show resilience.
Sweet Fedora lived in a breeding farm with cruel procedures. Every time she had a litter, her newborns were taken from her and sold. Once the ordeal was over, a benefactress took care of her and presented her with kittens. It took him a while to accept their presence, but one of them made the difference.
Gabrielle Esselman cares for animals as a relay family. Recently, a shelter entrusted him with the care of Fedora . The feline had never known the warmth of a loving home. She lived on a farm and was only used to reproduce.
A difficult life
Fedora didn’t see her kittens grow up. These were not even weaned before they left for their home for life. Separating young animals from their mothers early can have serious consequences on their well-being and behavior as adults. Unfortunately, crooked breeders only think about making a profit.
Moreover, some do not even take the trouble to offer good living conditions to their residents. They pile them up and disease nests form in these unsanitary places. Luckily, Fedora ended up escaping it. Gabrielle opened her doors to her and helped her rebuild herself.
A step towards resilience
As she kept other felines in her home, she decided to introduce them to the quadruped. However, it was constantly hissing at the kittens, as Pethelpful mentioned . She couldn’t stand their presence until little Piggy came into her life. Strangely, a powerful bond was formed between the two.
Fedora took care of him as if he were her own baby. The unfortunate man had just lost his brother and found himself alone, without a family. It was as if the cat had smelled it. She accepted it immediately and took her role as adoptive mother very seriously. She now finds it very difficult to separate from him.
