Anyone who is cared for by a kitty will know that – even though these feisty animals always, always get their way – they can be incredibly kind and compassionate. When a cat’s friend – human or animal – is in need of their comfort and kisses, nothing will stand in their way. Even the most seemingly aloof feline has a softer side.
Bearing this in mind, prepare to be amazed by the stunning story of Stitch, a rescued kitten who now cares for other animals in need! Stitch, along with her siblings, were cruelly abandoned in an industrial warehouse last December before being found by a factory worker who alerted Edgar’s Mission Sanctuary in Australia.

Stitch and her family were discovered huddled underneath a forklift in a warehouse. While mama cat might have thought this was a safe place to store her babies, unfortunately, it was anything but. Thankfully, Edgar’s Mission stepped in to rescue the little family.
Although Stitch herself is continuing to receive medical treatment for an eye condition, she has now become an unofficial “vet nurse” at the sanctuary, aiding human carers in their work by dispensing a generous share of kisses to all who need them! Her colleagues have described her as “one of the sweetest, kindest and most unassuming creatures you could ever meet.”







Beautiful Stitch is regarded as a kind of adoptive “mother” to all those animals who are lucky enough to be cared for her by her. When it comes to challenging the stereotypical perception of cats as aloof and uncaring, she is undoubtedly one of those amazing feline heroes leading the way! Long may her compassion continue.
