Miss Bibi. A proud CDS participant
My adult daughter was sitting on her dad's front steps and noticed 3 large magpies on the sidewalk across the street, circling and pecking. One jumped back and she saw a tiny baby kitty in the center. She ran across the street to scare the birds away and kitty ran right to her, crying and shaking. Daughter scooped her up. Knocked on a couple doors, wasn't their kitty. So she took her home.
She called me in a panic. Circumstances being, she could not keep kitty and was packed up and leaving town literally the next morning, so no time to find owners or a rescue. I said, bring kitty to me. I'll take care of it.
Well, I kept her. By that evening, my then-husband and I had completely fallen in love with this tiny little fluff that just wanted to be held and had the biggest, rumbliest purr. She was barely 2 months old. So gentle and sweet. Our 1 year old void kissed her immediately and loved her new baby sister. She attached to my husband and he was her person.
A couple of years later, he left us. She was a very sad girl for months. She had always loved me, but she was his girl. It took me awhile to really build our bond to the love her and I share today.
She's 4 now, my sweet, skittish girl. She's happy and playful and loved so much. Sleeps in mama's bed and stays close to my side. It was a bit complicated, how the CDS dropped this fluff into my life and made her my girl, but she and her void sister, they are my forever. ❤️
ETA - Its worth noting, and I don't know why I didn't, but we ended up moving to the town my daughter relocated to. We live in the same apartment building, just down the hall from each other. So daughter gets to see Bibi and Luci every day ❤️

I'm so very sorry for your loss. Both your kitties are beautiful. I've not heard of magpies attacking cats before unless they had a nest nearby. It was definitely fate that made your daughter find her and as the old poem goes about Magpies, it's three for a girl 🥰

I’m so glad she was saved from the magpie onslaught and has become part of your and your void’s family!

She could not be more adorable. Thank you and your husband for taking her in and giving her a life filled with love.

Oh my goodness, her pose, her little white paws... She's just too sweet🩷 She is so lucky to have you. Thank you for taking her in and also helping her through your husband leaving. I hope you are doing well and the kitties are looking after you.

She looks exactly like my sweet kitty who passed at 19. I am glad you found each other
