As hard as it is to comes to terms with a mother rejecting her child, unfortunately, in the animal world, it’s much more common.
A tiny pit bull puppy was sadly rejected by his mother when he was just one week old. Luckily, a woman found the baby on the street, and just in time, because he was just moments away from being eaten by his own mother. The dog’s paw was already chewed off, and his mom had eaten three of his siblings!
The woman was able to take the dog away from his mother, but without his mom to care for him at such a young age, and with such a bad injury, his future wasn’t looking bright.
Oddly enough, the woman’s cats adopted the puppy and took him in as their own.
She named the pit bull Nicholas, and he spent his most critical days in the arms of her loving kittens.
His human also had to feed Nicholas every three hours and changed his bandage every day.
This was an adjustment for her because Nicholas could only be bottle fed, so his recovery involved many sleepless nights. But after days of around the clock care and lots of help from a few of her cats and 5 other dogs, Nicholas was turning around.
“The once tiny pup without a paw and a future is one of the best things I have and he will always own a piece of my heart,” his owner said.
