Our pets are an external extension of our own hearts– and we love them dearly. When a pet is sick or if they're struggling medically, there's only so much we can do as their pawrents and when veterinary care becomes necessary, it's hard to let go of pawrental control of our wee little fur baby. The couple in our next story recently went through a rollercoaster of emotions when their own beloved kitten, a 6-year-old calico cat named Tabatha, came down with a destructive and painful prognosis of sepsis and an impacted colon. OUCH.

With the support of the Internet, Tabatha's pawrents share the miraculously heartwarming story of her veterinary journey, tugging the heartstrings of any cat lover and bolstering our desire to root for the underdog (or in this case, the undercat). So if you want to have a joyful tear in your eye and want your spirits lifted, here's an inspiring tale of the miraculous recovery of one family's cherished kitty and how her resilience and determination ultimately saved her life.
