Cat lover says the CDS would never choose them until two tiny kittens prove them very wrong

Years of watching other people get chosen by the CDS came to an abrupt end with one very fast U-turn.

This newly chosen rescuer was driving home when they spotted a tiny kitten sitting in the middle of a busy road. There was no driving past that, so they whipped the car around and went back for the little guy. Once he was safely out of traffic, they searched the surrounding area for a mama cat or any siblings who might also need help.

That search turned up another kitten. When the CDS finally decided it was their turn, it went ahead and made it a two-for-one delivery.

Both babies were scared and wet after storms had rolled through the area the previous day and night, but their rescuer couldn't find any obvious injuries. With two very tiny passengers now depending on them, they stopped at a friend's house for kitten milk replacement and bottles and got straight to work figuring out their new feeding schedule.

The babies are being fed every two to three hours, and their new caretaker has already started handling all the less glamorous parts of caring for kittens this young. They're also keeping track of each kitten's weight and trying to figure out a reliable way to tell the nearly identical little ones apart. Nothing says "surprise CDS delivery" quite like going from zero kittens to feeding schedules and weight logs in a single drive home.

After years of watching everyone else get chosen, this rescuer finally got their turn, and the CDS certainly made it count.

They left the house expecting an ordinary drive and came home as the caretaker of two tiny kittens. Welcome to the Chosen Ones club.

Real angels exist, and we’re pretty sure they’re all the cat rescuers stopping to help tiny felines in need. It takes a special kind of person to drop everything, scoop up a scared kitten, and suddenly rearrange their entire day around keeping them safe. From late-night feedings to vet visits and everything in between, rescuers put in so much time and love for cats they may have met only minutes earlier. These little ones definitely found themselves in the hands of an angel.

Those tiny little faces are almost too adorable to handle. Everything about them is miniature, from their little noses and ears to those sleepy baby eyes trying to take in the world around them. At this age, they still have that extra-smol kitten look that makes you want to stare at them all day. It’s hard to believe these teeny babies will eventually grow into full-sized cats. For now, we’re enjoying every bit of those ridiculously cute little faces while they last.

When they’re that tiny, just about anything can work as a little collar to help tell them apart. These babies are so small that a regular kitten collar would practically be an entire outfit, so their rescuer has to get a little creative. A simple, safe marker makes keeping track of feedings and weight much easier when you’ve got two nearly identical faces looking back at you. They’ll grow into proper collars soon enough, but for now, tiny kitten problems call for tiny kitten solutions.
