Hello, how are you doing, @caturday community? Today I want to tell you the story of Aurora. "Aurora" is the name we gave to a kitten we found in the rain the other day. Last Sunday, a week ago, we were on our way to the nearby winery when we heard a kitten meowing and some baby kittens meowing. A man approached us and told us that the cat used to be theirs, but one day she left, came back a long time later pregnant, and they already had other cats. He couldn't take responsibility for the kitten, but he was very sorry because she had just given birth. To my surprise, I got closer and saw that she did indeed have two newborn babies with the umbilical cord still attached to her! Since we already have a cat at home, I wasn't very enthusiastic about the idea because the kitten we have honestly eats a lot. However, we left him some food back from the cellar and immediately it started to rain. When I saw that it started to rain, I said, "Those babies are going to die of cold." ![IMG_20250518_152425_470.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmTtBy46VpFVCBP5YXPNjrQ5Qu77axTKqwdotc6Eswunib/IMG_20250518_152425_470.jpg) ![IMG_20250518_152655_727.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmWuzdDoQAC2kF2dSBFt6pFaEvPJXDyS9Pgwmpx1ydyLc5/IMG_20250518_152655_727.jpg) And the rest is history. I spent the whole afternoon with my daughters and grandchildren trying to befriend the kitten, but to our pleasant surprise, she is very docile and affectionate. She let us pet her, she let us carry her, it was amazing. Honestly, it seemed like she sincerely wanted a home or a family, a support system, and we were there for that. ![IMG_20250518_152658_809.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmQzCQWZ8o9bsueZFbzMBWp9E5jfW7fWeoduTKUA2FTUT6/IMG_20250518_152658_809.jpg) However, in the area where I live, neighbors tend to be problematic and change their minds like day and night. So I waited for the neighbor's wife to come out of her room around 5:00 p.m. and spoke to her. She repeated exactly what her husband had told me and gave me her blessing to take the kitten and keep her at home until the babies were grown. ![IMG_20250518_152730_082.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmWwvU2ZD8D6LnN4veayrqQdZHGNTuGnXJtTKNahbW3n43/IMG_20250518_152730_082.jpg) So, I asked her to bring the cat in her arms to my house so that there was proof that I was not appropriating someone else's treatment. Yes, friends, because when you live in a community, even that must be taken into account. You never know who you might offend by wanting to do good... ![IMG_20250518_152731_328.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmZLTCjRhWZiY8963kmTEJhfZnf5JMw8ZpBvGmTuv23ZrC/IMG_20250518_152731_328.jpg) _{_she gave birth under this cozy tree, but there are a lot of depredators, other cats and kitty's, the weather, too much danger for her to handle_>} It turns out that since I'm new to this, I asked my neighbor to take the cat and put her in a large room I have that's more like a storage unit, and put the babies in a new basket I'd used for them. That was a huge mistake because the cat hid, obviously completely scared, bewildered by that new place, new smells, etc. I noticed something wasn't right because the babies wouldn't stop crying. I had a cat that gave birth to several litters, and her babies were always silent because they were always nursing. So I thought, "Oh my God, she's probably not nursing!" And she's still hiding. Indeed, that's what she was hiding. ![IMG_20250518_173653_304.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmeYmgbYYQMZkR7h8kwRpmwdqRmpLFJhxfYg1ZvuoH6yDq/IMG_20250518_173653_304.jpg) ![IMG_20250518_173632_801.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmTVT5n3WLZz4VLQ5JWNyodZ8Fjj9WXYYH7MXt1173bbgm/IMG_20250518_173632_801.jpg) ![IMG_20250518_173703_490.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmbRXMTtRa33pm6ph2Zyt1UaRsavNxE18i2fJrRKKGXajm/IMG_20250518_173703_490.jpg) _{_the kittens by themselves and Aurora there's no way to be found_>} Later that night, when my son-in-law arrived, I asked him to please help me get the cat out of her hiding place so I could feed her babies. Thank God, she's very docile. She let me pick her up, and I moved her to a small bathroom, which we completely sterilized so she can have a sort of mini-house there with the babies. There, we can monitor her; she can walk around and explore freely. We avoid disturbing her as much as possible. I go over to her in the morning to pet her and feed her. My daughter or my oldest grandson does it when she doesn't. My son-in-law is in charge of cleaning the bathroom and keeping it spotless since she does her business there. We don't let her out so she doesn't get mixed up with the other cats since the babies are still very small. ![IMG_20250518_152745_121.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmWvTXQzJypmU3ua6rcoKjEUnM8cW4TRXByNA9ZX9ycXaL/IMG_20250518_152745_121.jpg) _{_with her eyes wide open, closely paying attention to the surroundings_>} My son-in-law is in charge of cleaning the bathroom and keeping it spotless since she does her business there. We don't let her go out so she doesn't get mixed up with the other people since the babies are still very small. ![IMG_20250518_153458_009.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmXB6nKUdgNRWKGPoudkGWXzeEDbLkNgx2s244jPvUTgJf/IMG_20250518_153458_009.jpg) _{_Some kids stopped by and tell us that not long ago, several kittys had their babies and "some friends" took the baby kittens and drawn them in the rain, just for fun_>} The adaptation has been simple, honestly, I had very bad references from people regarding taking in street cats, but this kitten is the most docile and gentle being that I have ever met. Honestly, I am surprised by my little experience with cats, they are not that friendly and I understood that when they first gave birth they are also very territorial. . Although the reality is that Matilda, the cat that I had here in my house that belonged to my youngest daughter, was not at all as described to people, in the same way Aurora is not. ![IMG_20250519_103334_346.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmPPegzfh43aejYAphcxFjMAdBSyXLZ6fYrg7QDihTEFLo/IMG_20250519_103334_346.jpg) ![IMG_20250518_173703_490.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmbRXMTtRa33pm6ph2Zyt1UaRsavNxE18i2fJrRKKGXajm/IMG_20250518_173703_490.jpg) ![IMG_20250519_102953_992.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmcqXD8XEBiCSmfENH3tDkhvNxiCLTpMsvm5vytTYiPcBV/IMG_20250519_102953_992.jpg) ![IMG_20250519_103406_912.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmZAxbP91mTdDTA2VZFuHiAVPhcU5jPDfRC4Ts7e35z1eg/IMG_20250519_103406_912.jpg) ![IMG_20250522_084021_434.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmY2UiUJgXcS1fz8dkBmwfTWk3CaCXETAqVFeyJKnRzcEn/IMG_20250522_084021_434.jpg) ![IMG_20250524_100116_312.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmYxmcEMYc1rTC1644y8inC8G9VFDfWNhK1ujMLw7DoiDm/IMG_20250524_100116_312.jpg) ![IMG_20250524_100111_971.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmWzy2CsvbZXT9fjLVkkar1tzUHD2EV7kRAPGj88Ja8vuo/IMG_20250524_100111_971.jpg) The first few days she was obviously quite apprehensive and scared. The first time we picked her up she trembled a lot, she trembled and purred at the same time which was quite strange. Nowadays she lets herself be carried perfectly. She is a loving and self-sacrificing mother. In fact, we have to insist that she comes out of the crib and walk a bit. She gets a bit of exercise. Generally, you go out to eat and do her business. It should be noted that she is an indoor kitten, meaning she doesn't go outside. The first photographs you saw are probably the only photographs you will ever see of her in nature because we intend to sterilize her and if she chooses us to take her in permanently at our home and hopefully find a good family to give the babies up for responsible adoption.

![IMG_20250525_073510_067.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmSkdj83xKKWTcmZrM7T8zNvpnGJy64R3wYAQK83zfTmWf/IMG_20250525_073510_067.jpg) **Español:** Hola cómo está comunidad @caturday, hoy les quiero contar la historia de Aurora, "Aurora", es el nombre que le pusimos a una gatita que encontramos en la lluvia el otro día. El domingo pasado hace ya una semana íbamos de de camino a la bodega cercana cuándo escuchamos a una gatita maullar y a unos bebés gatitos maullar un señor se nos acerca y nos comenta que esa gata solía ser de ellos pero que un día se fue volvió muchísimo tiempo después embarazada y ya Ellos tenían otros gatos que él no podía hacerse responsable de la gatita pero que le daba mucho sentimiento porque esta acababa de dar a luz, ¡Cuál es mi sorpresa cuando me acerco y veo que en efecto ella tiene a dos bebés recién nacidos todavía con el cordón umbilical debajo de ella!. Como ya en casa tenemos un gato, yo no estaba muy entusiasmada con la idea porque el gatito que tenemos sinceramente come muchísimo, sin embargo le dejamos comida de regreso de la bodega e inmediatamente empezó a llover, cuando yo vi que empezó a llover dije "esos bebés se van a morir de frío" .. Y el resto es historia, pasé toda la la tarde junto a mis hijas y mis nietos tratando de hacer amistad con la gatita pero para nuestras agradables sorpresa ella es muy dócil, cariñosa se dejaba acariciar se dejaba cargar ¡impresionante!, sinceramente, parece que ella deseaba tener un hogar o una familia, un sistema de apoyo y nosotros estábamos allí para eso. ![IMG_1047.JPG](https://images.hive.blog/DQmRAAZ4DkdhcVSeMfLRs88diivMBfgJWZWLoqR9kWXSnqJ/IMG_1047.JPG) _{_honestly, ain't nothing more beautiful than this_>} Sin embargo en la zona donde vivo los vecinos suelen ser problemáticos y cambiar de opinión como el día a la noche por lo tanto espere a que la esposa del vecino saliera de sus aposentos como a eso de las 5 de la tarde y hable bien con ella ella me repitió exactamente lo que su esposo me había dicho y me dio su bendición para tomar la gatita y resguardarla en casa hasta que los bebés estén grandes Entonces yo le pedí que me trajese a la gata en sus brazos hasta mi casa para que quedarse constancia de que no me estoy apropiando del trato de otra persona.. Sí amigos porque cuando se vive en comunidad Hasta eso hay que tenerlo muy en cuenta Uno nunca sabe a quién puede ofender queriendo hacer el bien. Resulta que como yo soy nueva en esto le pedí a la vecina que tomara La gata y la colocara en una habitación grande que tengo que es más bien un depósito y a los bebés en una canasta nueva que estrené para ellos eso fue un error inmenso porque la gata se escondió obviamente totalmente asustada desconcertada en ese sitio nuevo olores nuevos etcétera. Yo noté que algo no estaba bien porque los bebés no paraban de llorar, ya yo tuve una gata que dio a luz varias camadas y sus bebés siempre estaban en silencio porque siempre estaban mamando entonces pensé ¡Ay Dios mío seguramente no le está dando de mamar! y sigue escondida, efectivamente así era. Más tarde en la noche, cuando llegó mi yerno le pedí que por favor me ayudara a sacar a la gata de su escondite para que le diera comida a sus bebés gracias a Dios Ella es muy dócil se dejó tomar y la moví a un baño pequeño el cual esterilizamos por completo para que ella pueda tener allí una especie de mini casa con los bebés. Allí podemos monitorearla, ella puede caminar y explorar el lugar a sus anchas, evitamos al máximo molestarla, yo me acerco a ella en la mañana para hacerle cariño y darle su comida en su defecto lo hace mi hija o mi nieto mayor. Mi yerno es el encargado de limpiar el baño y mantenerlo impecable ya que ella allí hace sus necesidades no la dejamos salir para que no se mezcle con el otro dato ya que los bebés están muy pequeñitos todavía. ![IMG_20250522_090403_202.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmXgMAYjc5ykbuyrhACW42KUKrnmfLzFXyCLmLm1SuE6tN/IMG_20250522_090403_202.jpg) ![IMG_20250522_084524_695.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmP8QLrj9kRiAPruk7AziVGYj2epAyf5MpXXyaqN5cqnLe/IMG_20250522_084524_695.jpg) La adaptación ha sido sencilla sinceramente yo tenía muy mala referencia de las personas con respecto a acoger gatos de la calle, pero esta gatita es el ser más dócil y gentil que yo he conocido sinceramente me tiene sorprendida mi poca experiencia con gatas es que no son tan amables y y tenía yo entendido que recién paridas también son muy territoriales Aunque la realidad es que Matilda la gata que yo tuve aquí en mi casa que pertenecía a mi hija menor no era lo absoluto como la describe a la gente del mismo modo Aurora no lo es. Los primeros días lógicamente ella estaba bastante aprensiva miedosa la primera vez que la cargamos temblaba mucho temblaba y ronroneaba al mismo tiempo lo cual era bastante extraño ya hoy en día se deja cargar perfectamente es una mamá abnegada amorosa de hecho hay que insistirle para que salga de la cunita y camino un poco haga un poco de ejercicio Generalmente sales a comer y hacer sus necesidades. Cabe destacar que ella es una gatita indoor es decir ella no sale al exterior las primeras fotografías que vieron Probablemente sean las únicas fotografías que vayan a ver alguna vez de ella en la naturaleza Porque tenemos la intención de esterilizarla y si ella nos Escoge a coger la permanentemente en nuestro hogar y con suerte, encontrar a una buena familia para dar los bebés en adopción responsable.
