Two rescue cat mamas are raising their eight kittens and five adopted orphans together, making it a happy family of 15.
"Sapphire and Turquoise were rescued from an animal hoarder while they were still pregnant. They went into foster together where they had their kittens 4 days apart," Save-A-Pet told Love Meow.
"Both had 4 kittens but they were raised together as one family with Sapphire and Turquoise both nursing whichever kitten needed feeding. A bit later SAP received a litter of 5 stray 4 week old orphan black kittens who were just in the process of transitioning to solid food. They were added to Sapphire and Turquoise's group for socialization and some motherly love. They were accepted into the family by the mommas and the kittens making one big happy family of 15."

They feed their babies together...
...groom them together...
...and cuddle together for naps.
Their babies grew.
