When we have an animal in our family, we do what we can to make sure they have everything they need in life. We give them a nice place to sleep, plenty of good food, and all the TLC they can handle.

Unfortunately, not all animals have that opportunity and some must struggle just to get by from one day to the next. When we see those animals in trouble, we do what we can to help but some people take things to the next level.

There are plenty of people out there who are willing to foster animals that need some extra help or perhaps can’t find a home. That was the case with one woman, who took care of cats.

Although this woman regularly fosters cats, she was given the opportunity to bring two more little kittens into her family. She didn’t hesitate on hearing the news, but she did something that you will find beautiful.

As she shared on TikTok, she was fostering a beautiful black cat named Alexa at the time. Alexa already had four kittens she was caring for, but when news came in from the shelter, they needed Alexa to do some more.

The human agreed that the two orphan kittens could come to her home. She even prepared the way, covering them up with a blanket so they had Alexa’s scent when they arrived.

They weren’t quite sure how Alexa would react at first. They knew that she had mothering instincts, but these were kittens she had never seen before.

Eventually, they were able to find a quiet moment when they could move the two kittens over into the box with Alexa. They were happy when the older cat took them in and began feeding them almost right away.

Seeing something like this for yourself is beautiful and fortunately, they took a video so we can see Alexa in action. Check it out below:
