Pets often express their emotions in a very unique way, but occasionally they surprise us with their outlook and grasp of the world, as in the case of a kitten that was overcome with emotion at being saved so it could have a better life next to an ideal spouse.

A good-hearted family in Texas came upon an abandoned orange kitten wandering the streets. When they saw he was a little unusual and required specialist medical attention, they agreed to take him in and gave the place the name Murphy’s Safe Haven.

The little kitten was taken to their facilities and given a medical examination after the animal rescue organization swiftly responded to the call and chose to help.

Shelter volunteer Audrey shared with:

“Theodore (the kitten) was born with a cleft lip and hydrocephalus. Fortunately, his palate is intact and has no deformities ».

The odore was a little reserved at first, but he rapidly warmed up to his foster family and came out of his shell. With the proper care and therapies, they were able to manage his physical issues, and a few days later, the little boy’s demeanor underwent an amazing change.

Theodore was a little reserved at first, but he rapidly warmed up to his foster family and came out of his shell. With the proper care and therapies, they were able to manage his physical issues, and a few days later, the little boy’s demeanor underwent an amazing change.

The orange kitty was no longer calm , and as soon as he gained some strength, he turned into an unbridled energy machine who just wanted to play. Theodore showed with his energetic attitude how happy and excited he was to have a place to take refuge and above all to have fun.

Audrey realized that Theodore longed for a playmate, as his energy seemed to be inexhaustible, running 24 hours a day. She needed to find another kitty her age, to become best friends with her and help tire out the little fluffball.

At that point, they learned of a kitten named Tiny who was at a local shelter and needed to be transferred to a foster home.

Audrey said:

“Tiny was a lonely kitty and he had the same problem as Theodore: he was full of energy and had no one to play with. He knew that he was perfect ».

When Tiny was eventually brought home to be taken in, the two kittens soon became friends and began playing about the house.

As Audrey said:

“Whenever they could, they went into trouble. Everything became better throughout the course of the days.

Theodore follows his brother around the house and attempts to fight with his tail now that they are bonded and do everything together. Every time he takes a nap, Tiny cuddles up next to his younger foster brother since he has developed an excessive amount of love for him.

According to Audrey, Tiny acts like a father and takes care of Theodore as if he were his own baby, picking up toys and calling him to play with them. Even when they take Theodore to the vet for a checkup, Tiny always insists on accompanying them, she knows that her company is very important to him.

Theodore received prompt medical care on one of his last trips to the vet to address a mouth infection. Fortunately, he has now fully healed, but ever since he started the process, Tiny has stood by his side, supporting him and shielding him from any threats.

The two kittens were fortunate to find themselves in a foster home, they are now best friends and both show their excitement at having a life partner.
