Rescue:

Just before Christmas, a small black mother cat and four ten week old kittens began appearing at a
neighborhood feeding station, coming from an old shed area nearby. Though timid and uncertain at
first, they slowly grew comfortable enough to stay and eat while their caretakers were nearby. The
kittens sometimes allowed gentle touches, but their protective mother—later named Betty—kept
her distance, watching over them carefully. The plan was to gradually gain their trust and rescue
them when the weather improved, but in February it became clear that Betty was pregnant again.
On a cold, foggy day in early March, she was discovered sheltering in a straw­filled box with six
newborn kittens. Knowing the family needed help, the rescuers quickly secured Betty and carefully
gathered her babies, bringing them safely to Pet Patrol. Though understandably upset at first, Betty
immediately settled with her kittens. Now the whole family is warm, safe, and Betty will finally be
spayed so she never has to endure another litter.

Personality:

Bitsy may be the tiniest of her litter, but she has the biggest heart. This sweet girl is incredibly
affectionate and loves nothing more than body scratches, belly rubs, and curling up in your arms for
a cozy snuggle. She has a gentle, loving nature and thrives on closeness with her people. Bitsy
shares a very special bond with her sister Brinley, and the two can often be found cuddled up
together. They would absolutely love to be adopted as a pair so they can continue growing up side
by side. Bitsy is ready to be adopted into her forever home. One that will welcome her into the
family and keep her safely indoors.
