The stray cat wandering on the street، seemingly unresponsive to everything around، is only due to one sad reason…

To this day، Momo is extremely attached to Stella، and while she no longer gets anxious when they’re apart، this cute black and white girl still follows her mom around the house. Fortunately، Momo’s feelings for her mom are mutual، and Stella thinks of this special girl — who is her very first cat — as her firstborn child.

“Momo certainly opened our hearts and home to stray cats،” says Stella، and since meeting Momo، she and Jay have rescued، fostered، and found homes for four kittens who were living on the streets in their neighborhood. “There are so many stray cats all around the world and all are deserving of loving homes.”

After all، if Stella and Jay hadn’t rescued Momo that night in January 2020، there’s a very good chance she might not be alive today، and her life would have been short، lonely، and filled with pain and suffering. Thankfully، they were there not only to rescue Momo، but to nurse her back to health and to help her become the incredibly intelligent and affectionate girl she is today.

“My heart explodes with love for her and I shower her with affection every day to let her know she is always loved، just as she shows us in many ways how much she loves us،” says Stella. “She makes me laugh every day with her chattiness and quirkiness، and I love seeing her so relaxed when she sleeps. Her disability and early life experiences have truly helped shape her into the beautiful، sweet little soul that she is today.”
