This Kitten in Foster Care Has Everyone's Heart Melting Because of Her Big Eyes
Sprout did not exactly arrive in foster care looking ready to take on the world. The tiny black kitten, with her huge eyes and fluffy coat, was only 350 grams when she came in, and she was already behind where she should have been at five weeks old. They kept showing up for her, even when she was not eating well and her progress was slow, because Sprout clearly needed extra care and patience.
Now her big-eyed charm is winning people over, and her journey is getting plenty of attention. Read on.
Amber was the one looking after this precious kitten most of the time.
Amber shared her experience after they brought Sprout in, saying, "I have to say that a couple of times throughout the night, I had to give her a little nudge just to check if she was still with us."
This kitten had absolutely no interest in eating.
The concern was that Sprout didn't want to eat at all, which is a common issue that foster care systems face, so this wasn't anything new for Amber. She knew exactly what to do, but she mentioned that getting this little kitten to eat something wasn't fun at all.
The great news is that Amber definitely had the right idea because by the next morning, Sprout was eating all by herself. This is when they noticed her putting on healthy weight.
Amber’s night checks for Sprout feel intense, like when the NYPD reunited a stolen cat with her foster family after a daylight heist.
Sprout's eyes were her most noticeable feature.
Sprout may be an adorable, fluffy kitten with a kind heart, but what most people noticed first about her were her huge, beautiful eyes. This kitten takes "puppy dog eyes" to a whole new level and meaning.
Now that Sprout is eating properly and gaining healthy weight, she'll be ready for adoption in no time. We are also sure that she won't have any problems getting adopted because of how absolutely adorable her eyes are.
Here's what else Amber had to say about Sprout's personality: "She is a cheeky little girl who loves to sneak attack the other kittens and run around with her tail straight up in the air."
This kitten has come a long way, and we are very proud of her.
When playtime is over, though, Amber told Love Meow, "At night, it’s all about the cuddles, and she will climb up onto the bed, snuggle up under the blanket, and purr all night long."
Here's a video about little miss Sprout.
