Rescued cat gives birth in San Diego

A female cat named Sage was rescued in San Diego, California, just before she was due to give birth to her kittens. She was taken in by the Humane Society, where she successfully delivered four kittens.

One kitten does not survive

One of the newborn kittens did not survive, but Sage continued to care for her three remaining kittens. The small family was then placed in a foster home while they waited for adoption.

Strong bond forms in foster care

Life in the foster home was peaceful, and it was impossible to separate the cats. The kittens, named Cilantro, Parsley, and Basil, formed a close bond with their mother, Sage.

Adopter takes entire family

When the kittens reached the age to be adopted, a potential adopter initially intended to take one or two kittens. However, after observing the strong bond between Sage and her kittens, the adopter decided to take the entire family.

Foster family expresses joy

The foster family expressed their delight that the cats would be able to grow up together, as noted on the LoveMeow website.
