Person rescues a stray pregnant cat, plans to help her and her kittens find homes, but ends up keeping the sweet mama forever: ‘She is the calmest and most perfect cat’

“The middle one jumped into my car during a camping trip, and we thought she was cute, so we decided to try fostering her. Two weeks later, to our surprise, she gave birth to six kittens, including the other two you see here. At that point, we decided to keep the mom and find homes for the rest. We tried to rehome the bottom kitten, but she would completely freak out if there was ever a closed door between her and her mom. She clearly has some anxiety issues, and we realized we could not separate her from her momma. As for the top one, if momma Kiwi was separated from her, she would get very upset and mean. Now, Kiwi spends her days glaring at me if I get too close to her fat babies. She is very protective, and honestly, I cannot even blame her.”
