mama

Mellissa of Tiny but Mighty Kitten Rescue, located in Cornwall, Ontario, Canada, took a pregnant stray into her care and a few weeks later into foster care, the cat gave birth to a lovely litter of kittens. 

The new mama cat's name is June. And just a few weeks after June's birth to a litter of kittens, Mellissa got a call about a stray kitten found alone out on the sidewalk. The kitten found was ultra-tiny, weighing only a mere 82 grames. Despite being against all odds, this kitten was vocal and active. 

Mellissa immediately offered to help this tiny kitten with no home, knowing how much a mother's love would help this little kitten in need.

Patients at the University of Rochester Thompson Health hospital are treated to the adorable parade every year, as they wrote in this cute facebook post: "Every year, without fail, a mama duck chooses one of the enclosed courtyards at our M.M. Ewing Continuing Care Center to lay her eggs and take care of her babies. She lets us know when she's ready to go by tapping on the glass, and this morning, it was time for this annual rite of spring".
