Adorable Kitten Brothers Separated At Birth Are Reunited In Foster Care
Two tiny brothers ended up on different paths before they ever had a chance to grow up together, and that made their reunion even sweeter. Bumble and Rumble were separated at birth, then later found their way back to each other in foster care at Milo's Sanctuary.
What makes their story stand out is how fragile both kittens were at the start, and how much care it took to get them healthy enough to thrive. The volunteers watched them grow, heal, and finally recognize the bond they had been missing all along.
By the time they were adopted together, their story had already won over everyone around them. Read on.
The grey and white kitten
One day, a woman in Southern California discovered two grey and white kittens abandoned on her doorstep, so she knew she had to act quickly. Fortunately, she knew exactly what to do.
It was evident that this 3-week-old kitten had not received a fair chance in life, but that was about to change. The lonely kitten was about to receive the most fantastic gift imaginable!
Bumble, he was named.
A neighbor of the woman, a volunteer with Milo's Sanctuary, a non-profit cat rescue organization, reached out to her. The volunteer readily accepted the kitten and agreed to transport it to the sanctuary for some much-needed care.
There, they learned more about the darling kitten they named Bumble. Andrea Murphy, a volunteer at Milo's Sanctuary, reported that Bumble had an eye infection, a cold, and had not yet been weaned.
Rumble was weak but didn't give up.
Little Bumble was immediately treated at the sanctuary, receiving appropriate medication and food, and was weaned slowly. The staff and volunteers were determined not to let him down.
Milo's Sanctuary was confident that Bumble's health could be improved, but he still needed a friend. Little did they know that fate had planned wonderful things for Bumble.
And he was named Rumble!
The volunteers received word of another kitten being abandoned on the same porch a week after Bumble arrived at Milo's Sanctuary! They took this abandoned kitten under their wing and named him after the sound he made: Rumble.
The sweet reunion!
They were eager to introduce the two rescued kittens, who appeared to be the same age, to the volunteers. When a cat finds a companion, it tends to be happier and recover faster from any health issues.
That reunion was the moment everyone had been waiting for.
Their love for each other is beyond eternity.
They had no idea that these two had previously met each other or perhaps shared the same mother. It was quite clear that the two were brothers.
The two immediately recognized each other and were overjoyed to be reunited. That moment of their reunion was a beautiful sight to behold.
They cuddle with each other.
Bumble and Rumble hugged each other and curled up next to one another; finally, the two separated brothers were together again. Fortunately, Rumble appeared to be in good health and was allowed to snuggle with Bumble right away.
They wasted no time acting like they had never been apart.
This is the same kind of safety and warmth you see when Pickles the deaf dog cares for two rescue kittens.
They play together; they slay together.
The adorable duo was inseparable, refusing to be apart! It was clear to the shelter that the two were a bonded pair. So, Milo's Sanctuary's founder decided that if they were adopted, they would be adopted together.
Adopted together by Andrea.
Andrea took Bumble and Rumble under her care not long after they arrived at the sanctuary. They were quickly weaned and had no trouble learning how to use the litter box.
Andrea made sure the brothers got to stay side by side.
The happiest siblings.
They are two of the most attractive and kindest cats one could ever encounter. This precious pair has grown closer than ever and constantly seeks each other out when separated by only a few feet!
This sweet reunion filled everyone at the sanctuary with tears of joy and awe. Surely, everyone who reads their story will be happy for this adorable pair of siblings.
