A bonded Siamese pair was separated when they were abandoned at the shelter. When they found each other again at their new foster home, the father never left his soulmate and her newborn babies.

They were abandoned at a high kill shelter in Los Angeles. These two soulmates were separated and became very depressed. They stopped eating and became sick. What no one knew was that Seashells was pregnant.
Southern California Siamese Rescue (CASR) learned about the bonded pair and took them out of the shelter and placed them in a foster home, where they met Christina Kay Burlison, their foster mom.
The two were reunited at last, and soon they found out about Seashells' pregnancy.

One morning, Seashells gave birth to five healthy babies.
"Seashells came on my bed that morning in between me and my husband purring away and had 5 kittens so far with Omar helping clean her and kittens, these two are truly bonded," Christina of CASR said.

Omar was there for Seashells and the kittens every step of the way. He helped her when she needed to take a break and helped her again even when she was with the kittens.

It would be heart-breaking to separate the two, so Omar and Seashells were adopted together by their foster family. Their five little fur babies also found their forever homes.
They have been renamed Tony and Sheba.
