Nessy the cat is the surrogate mother for two premature puppies.

A pregnant Chihuahua who arrived at SPCA of North Brevard went into premature labour and gave birth to four puppies. Sadly two puppies passed away shortly after, but two survived and weighed only a few ounces. The tiny puppies were rejected by their mother and, at only a few hours old, needed a mother.

Luckily, a cat named Nessy had given birth to four kittens 5 days earlier. When the SPCA staff introduced the two puppies to Nessy, the nursing mother accepted the pair right away.

Note: SPCAis a no-kill shelter, so animals stay with them until they find their forever home.

They strive to protect animals and find them loving homes through our shelter and veterinary clinic. Their shelter allows animals to find loving homes and our clinic provides low-cost veterinary care including neutering. (Source)

    That is so sweet. The mother cat is so wonderful to accept those puppies. They are smaller than her kittens. Thank you for sharing this.
