This tiny orphaned kitty was the only survivor of his litter. He always follows his mom.
Meet Eli the kitty.
Little Eli was only one day old when they found him with his dead siblings. He was bottle fed from since then. The little stray kitty desperately needed the love from a cat mama.
Madeline the cat and her kitties were brought into their new foster home in Seattle Washington for a second chance at life.
Cindy of foster_kittens was their caretaker and hoped Madeline would accept the little cute kitty. When the adorable mom cat met Eli, she immediately took to him and claimed him as her own baby.
When Eli came to Cindy, he was a very small kitty who only needed love.
Eli loves his new mama but doesn’t know how to nurse. “Kitties who are bottle-fed get used to a different habit of drinking. He hasn’t stopped purring since he got in the foster home.”
Mama Madeline gives him a nice bath.
After a bottle of milk, he snuggled up with cat mama and the other kitties for a nap. “He really loves having a family,” Cindy said.
What an adorable mom Madeline has been to Eli.”
“Kitties who have been bottle fed are usually tinier than kitties who nursed from a mama, but they soon catch up when they began to eat solid food,” Cindy said.
Eli quickly became very connected to his new mom Madeline.
“A great advantage of bottle kitties is they really love people: they are cuddly and lovable and totally attached to their human,” Cindy said.
After enjoying bottle fed by Cindy, Eli joins the cuddle time with his mom and other siblings.
The tiny cute kitten has really bonded with his cat mom.
“Madeline and I have a perfect routine with little Eli: First I bottle feed him, and after that she cleans him up,” Cindy said.
Her kitties love their adopted brother very much.

Eli takes twenty steps to my one step and that’s why I’m going to let him carry the Fitbit from now on.

Just look how happy they are. Very lovely family.
I think that Madeline will have no problem nursing little Eli – the question is, does he know how to nurse? Kittens who are bottlefed get used to a different type of drinking. I have bottles, syringes, and KMR if he prefers a bottle. We’ll just wait and see. He hasn’t stopped purring since he got here.
