this rescue kitten was constantly crying then his owner realized he was trying to
say something Wisconsin woman Elana Hadley adopted her kitten Aries from a
local Door County Animal Shelter in early 2018 but alas something just
wasn't right from the start indeed no matter how much Alana tried to
comfort the little kitty he'd meow all day until he finally dropped off to
sleep at night before long though the human mom had a feeling she knew what
her boy was trying to tell her Elana works as a photographer and lives with
her partner Nathan in the small city of Sturgeon Bay Wisconsin in fact at the
time of writing the couple are expecting a baby together but in January 2018 they
decided to expand their family early already acting as a mom and dad to a dog
called Cisco they set their hearts on a feline companion consequently the animal
lovers took themselves across town to the Wisconsin Humane Society Door County
campus rescue center that's where the Headley's met a little ball of fluff
called Ares the four month-old ginger kitten had been taken in by the animal
shelter with his gray sister Aphrodite after the strays had been found in late
2017 initially as smitten Alana had wanted to scoop up both kittens and take
them home sadly however this was not to be ever die T it turned out had already
been adopted and was just waiting for her new parents to pick her up so a
lotta left the center with just Ares nonetheless she was delighted with her
new kitty and this was for a good reason he looks exactly like my cat that passed
away Alanna revealed to love meow in February 2018 but while the human mom
was more than happy this was unfortunately not the case for all
concerned easy a lot of informed B Wisconsin
Humane Society that Ares spent his first night in his new home crying a lot
Ares is doing pretty good besides being needy she updated the Door County
Shelter via Facebook post later on that evening
he's been almost non-stop meowing until he goes to sleep nor did Ares
crying the next day in fact he continued his mournful mewling as soon as he woke
up ilana told the dodo about her first reaction to the feline fretting from her
adopted animal I originally thought he was meowing because he wanted attention
and to be by us she said as a result the caring couple did all they could to
comfort poor Aires in this testing time but snuggles an affection did not quiet
the tiny crying cat and his distress continued unabated next Alanna gave Ares
a soft toy to cuddle in the hope that it would sue them into some kind of
contentment alas this attempt was awesome fruitless and the youngster soon
went right back to his pitiful yowling Elena was at a loss the compassionate
human mom just could not think of another way to console Ares and then a
thought struck her perhaps the tiny cat was in mourning all his little life Ares
had known the love of his sister Aphrodite whom Alana had had to leave
behind at the shelter indeed workers at the Wisconsin Humane
Society said the feline shared a very strong bond in fact before the adoption
the duo had been inseparable a lot of updated the shelter on social media we
think he misses his sister and his grieving being taken away from her she
wrote on Facebook he's most likely calling out for his sister Alana later
said the same to the dodo she explained I realized it's probably
because he was never away from his sister and wanted her nevertheless the
situation was impossible the grey haired puss had been promised to another family
but the very next day the Headley's received some amazing news apparently
aphrodite's adoption had not gone to plan and the feline was looking for a
forever home once more consequently Alana wasted no time in racing back
across town to the Wisconsin Humane Society shelter
she then gratefully gathered up Aphrodite and took her home to be
reunited with her bereft brother needless to say the sibling seemed
pleased to see each other again and not only did the reunion stop Aires from
meowing constantly but it also brought about another change in him in fact
Alana noticed that all at once Ares seemed much happier in himself now
that he was back with effort indeed it was like the little furry
feller had a new lease on life and his sister was similarly joyful they
wouldn't stop playing a lot of reported to love meow and their bond was just as
strong as before in fact since Aphrodite's adoption the
kittens have not been apart and often this means literally as Alana informed
the dodo even if they can see each other they don't like not being right next to
each other but the felines feelings were not just limited to each other
not only did the young cats find comfort and joy in their loving reunion but
they're also full of affection for their humans too subsequently a lot of
described ares and aphrodite x' adorable behavior in an update on the official
Wisconsin Humane Society Facebook page they're very attention-seeking cats and
loving she wrote and they both love to cuddle and purr like crazy when we're
holding them they sleep most of the day and they cuddle each other when they nap
nevertheless there was another four-legged personality that the kittens
would have to come to terms with apparently Alanna was anxious that her
canine Cisco should not feel left out so with this in mind she encouraged the
pets to interact she posted about her attempts to introduce ares and aphrodite
to their other furry housemate on facebook we're getting them used to
running around with the dog she wrote in early February 2018
unfortunately the dog is hyper when he tries to play with them and it scares
them hopefully they'll all become the best of
friends but regardless the kittens are coming along very well and are both
settling in happily but was Ares previously miserable behavior unusual
for a young cat well actually it's not unheard of for kittens to suffer
separation anxiety when removed from their siblings according to pet related
website the nest kittens that are not used to people make cry in the same way
that Lou Larry's did this is because these young animals have not developed
suitable social skills early enough so given that ares and aphrodite were
strays and then residents together at a shelter it makes sense that the boy
kitten would suffer a great deal of anxiety when separated from his sister
but nonetheless there things an adoptive human can do to help
a suffering animal to speedily get over such problems if you have another kitten
friendly pet introducing the two can help your kitty adapt more quickly the
nest advised when you hold your kitten gather her paws gently to her tummy to
ease or stress of course if you're able to take on more than one pet you could
also follow Alana's example by adopting siblings after all you could be offering
more than one stray a forever home thanks to Alana's kindness then ares and
aphrodite can now both grow up happily taking comfort in their seemingly
unbreakable bond
