Mimi the calico is a miracle kitty who was found on the sidewalk just hours after she was born. She was so tiny but the little one wouldn't give up living. "Her eyes were still closed and her umbilical cord was attached," said Ilan P. who rescued Mimi and nursed her back to health. His dog Peki also gave him a big helping paw.
"It was challenging and fascinating to care for her and see how she developed from that tiny helpless little newborn. Eventually she became part of the family," Ilan added.
