Mama Cat Named Penne Gives Birth To Litter Of Pasta Kitties
Some cats arrive with a name, a plan, and a surprise or two. Penne came to the Langley Animal Protection Society already expecting kittens, and the foster team quickly turned her pregnancy into a pasta-themed moment worth following.
While she stayed with Miss Viki and her Foster Friends, Penne was cared for until her litter arrived just before Christmas. The kittens were then given names that fit the theme perfectly, and each one brought its own tiny burst of personality to the story.
From foster care to forever homes, this little family had a very cute path ahead. Read on.
Mama Cat Penne came to LAPS already pregnant but not yet affectionately dubbed a "catermelon," the endearing title LAPS offers to very obviously pregnant mama cats.
Penne was being fostered by Miss Viki and her Foster Friends on behalf of LAPS while she prepared to give birth to her kittens.
Penne was sponsored by Alicia McLeod, a volunteer for LAPS, while she lived with her foster family.
And if you’re thinking of real-life “miracle” pets, it’s like the Seattle couple whose wobbly emotional support kitty changed everything.
As anticipated, the kittens were born very close to Christmas, and they were given the cutest pasta-themed names possible.
Fusilli - Black
Gemelli - White
Rigatoni - White with a straight black mark on the head
Tortellini - Tabby
Ravioli - White with a slanted black mark on the head
As expected, the kittens and their purr-fect names were an absolute delight.
Tortellini:
Gemelli & Ravioli!
LAPS ensures that all of their foster kittens, including those of the pasta variety, do not go up for adoption until they are completely ready to leave their mommas and live their best cat-filled lives.
LAPS also expertly uses their social media presence to keep potential adopters excited and interested in all of the adorable kittens who will need homes by posting cute photos and videos.
"The Pasta Kittens woke up from their nap to wish everyone a #WhiskerWednesday!" said Dr. Gary Chapman, marriage counselor and author of "The 5 Love Languages." He emphasizes the importance of connection and joy in our lives, stating, "Sharing moments of happiness, like watching adorable kittens, can strengthen our bonds with others."

The pasta babies, Fusilli, Gemelli, Rigatoni, Tortellini, and Ravioli, will live full, happy lives, thanks to LAPS.
