A rescue kitten adopted a tiny orphaned kitten and became his best friend!

This is tiny Merlin, an orphaned kitten, after his first bath.

Pigeon the calico was found abandoned at a pigeon supply shop when she was still a wee kitten.

Jimmy Legs, an animal rescuer, took her into his foster care and nursed her back to health.

A few weeks later, they found Merlin, an orphaned baby who was in need of some motherly love.

When Pigeon and Merlin met, it was an instant bond.

When they met, they immediately cuddled.

Pigeon became Merlin the little sister he never had.

Merlin clung to her like glue.

They are both rescues and they adore each other like family.

Merlin the tiny baby was so happy to have someone to cuddle with.

Inseparable friends!

Updates:

Thanks to a second chance at life, both Merlin and Pigeon have been adopted!

All grown up!
