A kind rescuer helped get a stray kitten off the street and returned for another cat, her sister, cut from the same cloth.

Late last month, Beth, an animal rescuer, was contacted about two kittens, around 3-4 months old, living under a homeowner's porch. Both young and friendly, Beth was determined to give them the good life they deserved.

Upon arriving, she noticed one of the kittens, Hazel, had an infected eye and needed immediate attention. She brought her home to begin treatment while the homeowner continued caring for the other kitten, Sally.

"She thought she could go back for Sally once she got help for Hazel," Stephanie Grantham, president of Sparkle Cat Rescue, shared with Love Meow.

With the community's support, Beth was able to secure the eye surgery for Hazel. "One of her eyes was in really bad shape, and after two weeks of meds and no improvement, it was removed."

After surviving outdoors for months, Hazel seemed relieved and content to be in a comfy home. She nestled into her rescuer's arms as if she knew she was finally in good hands.

A volunteer at Sparkle Cat Rescue took her in to help her heal after the surgery. She quickly perked up and regained her playful energy. Before long, Hazel was climbing cat trees and running around, claiming every inch she touched.

With her renewed confidence, her personality began to shine through. "She slept with her foster (carer) on the first night and loved it."

When Beth returned to check on Hazel's sister, Sally, the long-haired, dilute calico sauntered up, begging for attention. She was an instant cuddle bug and wanted nothing more than to be held and loved on.

As Hazel healed beautifully in foster care, Beth asked Stephanie if they had room for another kitten.

"I told her to bring her to me so we could reunite her and Hazel."

Sally arrived in good spirits, affectionately rubbing her face against everything around her. With her purrs rumbling, she explored her new space and greeted everyone she met. "This girl wants lots of attention."

While Stephanie tried to work on her computer, Sally jumped onto the desk, eager to assist. She placed a paw on her shoulder and rubbed her face against the arm controlling the mouse.

Needless to say, Stephanie didn't get much work done that day, but she was delighted to know Sally was finally safe.

With both kittens securely indoors, it was time for their reunion.

A family jumped at the chance to foster the kittens and reunite them. It didn't take long before they fell head over heels for the pair. "Both girls went to a new foster home (potentially will be adopted by the foster) this week and are doing great."

While lounging on the big bed Hazel had claimed, she saw her sister and was intrigued.

Within two days, the two were playing, chasing each other around the house, and soon, curling up on the same bed like two peas in a pod.

"They are both very loving and social, love to play with their toys and cuddle with humans. Their lives are forever changed now."

With the help of rescuers and volunteers, the sisters have been reunited and are now starting a new chapter filled with food, love, and each other.
