In reply to the discussion: Grace one of the cats at Tinykittens will give birth soon! [View all]Judi Lynn
(160,627 posts)49. Anyone who sees a cat with stripes visiting Grace & kittens is seeing "Mercy."
Tiny Kittens got Mercy from a shelter where Mercy was taken after she was hit by a car and had a broken jaw. She would have been kept for three days, then euthanized if no one claimed her. Instead Tiny Kittens took her, got her jaw the help it took to restore her, at eight months old, and brought her home to recuperate.
Mercy loves Grace and the kittens, and comes in to cuddle with all of them. I've seen them all sleeping in one great big hug together, and have seen Grace and Mercy playing like kittens. Sometimes you will see Mercy in there with the kittens while Grace goes out for dinner, etc.
Really, really cute. Mercy has her life back, and Grace has a new friend along with a new family.

Pretty neat that the wall paper in her little room matches her color. What a beautiful girl she is.

She's starting to look a little on edge, totally large, but very happy for her friend's attention.

Grace has been leaving the little ones to cuddle on their own a lot more in the last 2 days.

Charlotte's such a cutie kitten. Since their eyes aren't open, their range of experiences is small.
