Two kittens have never left each other’s side since they were rescued. They have blossomed into gorgeous cats.
Mellissa, founder of Tiny but Mighty Kitten Rescue (in Ontario, Canada), came across an online listing about two kittens needing help. They were just four weeks old and had been left behind by their mom.
“I knew by the picture that I had to rescue them. I drove off to Alexandria that morning and picked these babies up,” Mellissa shared.
The kittens were covered in filth and very hungry. After getting their bellies filled, the pair curled up together in a warm bed before purring themselves to sleep.
The kittens, Ace (black and white) and Indie (grey), quickly settled into their new abode. After a much-needed bath, they turned into the fluffiest tiny puff balls.
“Indie weighed in at one pound and Ace was 1.2 pounds. They were officially professional bottle drinkers.”
With a roof over their heads, the kittens came out of their shells and even started to explore. It didn’t take long for Mellissa to notice the special bond they shared.
They were like two peas in a pod, completely inseparable.
As they got bigger, their appetite soared. The brother and sister duo demanded their bottles every two hours and ate to their heart’s content.
Ace was very brave and packed with endless energy. Indie followed his lead and didn’t want to miss out on the action. After every play session, the little fluff balls would snuggle up together to recharge before their next round of roughhousing.
“Ace’s pillow aka baby Indie purred so much that his head bobbed (when they napped),” Mellissa shared.
When the feline siblings were ready to learn to eat from a dish, they did it together, side by side, as if to cheer each other on.
If they weren’t eating or sleeping, they were busy bouncing around the kitten room, creating all sorts of antics until they wore themselves out.
The kittens liked to do everything as a duo. They rubbed off on each other and even used the litter box together.
Mellissa upgraded their suite with a new cat tree to climb on. In no time, the two besties made their way to the top together and cuddled.
Indie is the sassy princess who loves giving others kisses, and Ace is a fearless boy who doesn’t seem to have a pause button when he plays.
“They play hard, sleep hard, and are always together.”
