Hi-Tor's Pet of the Week: Raven

Raven is a beautiful, young long-haired tortoiseshell cat that loves attention. She is very friendly and has no problems with other cats when she is let out of her cage. Last fall Raven took refuge in a garage where she gave birth to kittens. She was not a feral cat and probably had either gotten lost or was thrown out because she was pregnant. Raven was very frightened and probably not sure what had happened to her. It took a little time before she began to nurse the kittens and even then she wasn't having anything else to do with them. Eventually her maternal instincts kicked in and she became a great mother. She even started nursing at least one kitten that was not hers.
