Momma Muffin was found as a pregnant stray earlier this year. Luckily, Richmond Animal Care & Control (RACC) has the resources, space, and staff to provide the care she needed to deliver her kittens safely and give her the rest she needs after carrying around all five of them for two months.

One of the RACC's dedicated foster homes took in Momma Muffin so she could give birth to the clowder of tiny, long-haired kittens. While her offspring are off in the world—each adopted to loving families—she's back in the Richmond, Virginia, shelter to recover.
