Pregnant Cat Abandoned On Ohio Streets Finds A Way To Mechanics And Begs For Help
Rather than spaying their pets, some careless owners choose the easier way out by abandoning them once they realize the cat is pregnant.
Tragically, that’s exactly what happened to a brown tabby who was left behind in a Walmart parking lot after her owners discovered she was expecting kittens.
Expecting kittens, the tabby desperately needed care and protection. After spending years in a home, she now faced the frightening reality of surviving on her own while carrying her unborn babies.
Luckily, her situation took a turn for the better when a group of mechanics from the auto department spotted her roaming through the parking lot.
When the mechanics called the cat, she instantly came over, seeking a helping hand, which they didn’t hesitate to offer. Jillian from Foster Baby Cats in Ohio, who later took the cat in, said in an interview:
“They bought her a couple cans of soft food and a little bowl for water. They kept her safe as much as they could.”
The mechanics truly helped the cat, providing her with a safe place inside their garage. But, as much as they wanted to keep her, they couldn’t for the following reason.
With a severe storm on the way, the mechanics knew they couldn’t leave her in the garage overnight, and leaving her outside was out of the question. They needed to quickly come up with another plan.
Fortunately, someone contacted Jillian from Foster Baby Cats, who instantly sprang into action. She was surprised by how well the mechanics cared for the cat, saying:
“When I came to help her, they gave me all the supplies they had gathered for her. It was the sweetest, most genuine thing.”
Jillian and her neighbor, Jaime, brought the cat to safety right before the storm began.
They affectionately named the cat Bonnet and went to examine her, but something shocked them – the cat herself was just a kitten, estimated to be only 7–8 months old.
Even with that surprising realization, their priority never wavered. All that mattered was making sure Bonnet received the care and support she so desperately needed.
Bonnet loved her new environment, making herself comfortable and devouring food like there was no tomorrow. After a hearty meal, Bonnet snuggled up next to Jillian and purred her way into dreamland. Jillian added:
“She is the sweetest, most trusting little girl.”
Despite being abandoned, Bonnet amazed everyone by still trusting humans. She was so comfortable in her new environment that she prepared the biggest surprise for Jillian two days later.
When Jillian stepped into the foster room, she was greeted by the sight of Bonnet with three tiny kittens at her side — two orange and one tabby.
Although Jillian had set out soft blankets, cozy beds, and boxes for her, Bonnet chose a simple corner on the floor as the perfect spot to nest with her babies.
Jillian wanted to make them even more comfortable, so she slowly transitioned this furry family into a new nest, which Bonnet loved. The grateful cat couldn’t stop expressing her appreciation to Jillian, constantly rubbing against her.
The feline family was well cared for, especially the kittens, who progressed rapidly. The adorable trio – Axel, Spark, and Sprocket – developed huge appetites and big attitudes.
And, Bonnet is just a perfect mother, never leaving the kittens’ side. Jillian added:
“She is doing a fantastic job as a mother.”
Although Bonnet has proven to be a wonderful mother, this will be her first and only litter.
Soon she’ll be spayed, leaving her days of motherhood behind and stepping into a brighter future — one that will hopefully include a loving forever home of her own.
