You can truly be surprised by how many stories there are out there of cats unexpectedly giving birth. Every one of them is special, every one of them - so long as it has a happy ending - is wholesome, and the one that we're about to share with you today is even more wholesome than most. kittycrazy88 on imgur is a wonderful human who fosters cats and them a safe place to be until they find their forever homes. We first saw the story right after Easter - this person rescued a cat who unexpectedly gave birth and decided to share it with the internet, and of course, the internet couldn't handle the cuteness and had the story go viral.

It took a while to get this feral cat to trust her rescuer, but she seems to be getting there. kittycrazy88 is keeping everyone updated, and everyone is watching, waiting for more, and continuing - over and over - to make this incredible heartwarming story go viral.

"I picked up Pepa and Julietta this morning. They were super scared and hid behind my toilet.
No one was expecting them to give birth so soon!
Look at the little baby under Julietta! She's already being a good second mom."

"I tried here first. It was already set up, but she must have been too scared to use it. She kept leaving to hide behind the toilet."

"I set up this nursery for the cats with some more cover. I ask Julieta to please use this as her birthing suite. I tried to make behind the toilet an unsuitable location. They're both in there now."

"Clean towel, safe space, and a heating pad. Mama is purring loudly and all of the babies are moving around a lot.
I hope she and the babies get a good night of sleep. She came from a loud, crowded environment so I hope she finds peace here.
The Imgur community is amazing and has asked how they can help my fosters. We are always in need of supplies! There is a wishlist linked if you'd like to send some kitty things our way. :)"
