WFFT discovered that the kitten had left its mother’s womb just a few hours prior to when the family found him. Specialists at the organization were baffled as to how a mother had been able to abandon its new born baby like that — unusual for the breed.

The family took a liking to the rare cat and were allowed to keep it for a trial period. They decided to call him Simba. It was apparent that the cat felt very attached to the family.
The family kept an eye out at all times for the mother of the kitten, whom they assumed would show up at any time for her child.
Sadly, that never happened.
Simba was milk-fed by the family instead, and grew up to become a beautiful fishing cat.

Luckily, so far he is still alive and well but it’s extremely important that Simba continues to thrive.
