When rescuers from Alley Cat Rescue were working on a trap, neuter, return program (TNR), they found a tiny kitten with her head stuck in a fence.

The rescuers sprang into action to get her out but soon realized that she wasn’t alone.

Behind the fence they found the kitten’s siblings and all of them were in need of urgent medical attention.

The little white kitten that alerted the rescuers they named Meeps.

She was in a serious condition, her eyes were sealed up due to infections and she needed to be treated urgently.

"They were very ill and required multiple rounds of antibiotics for prolonged upper respiratory infections, eye ointment, eye drops, GI meds, probiotics, and treatment for multiple parasites,"

All of the rescue volunteers worked hard to get Meeps and her siblings back to good health.

The cats were then spayed and vaccinated before they were taken to a foster home where they were loved and cared for.

"This adorable sweet girl comes looking for love in the right places. She rolls around on your computer keyboard, purring until you can't resist." said her foster mom.

Little Meeps got stronger and soon was snuggling with her siblings every night while cosying up to her carers after every meal.
