Last week, a cat saved her three day-old kittens during the flooding that hit the area. Now, people at the shelter the cats were taken to are hoping someone is willing to adopt the miracle felines.
Now peacefully resting with her three babies, Victoria King of Holly's House animal shelter marvels at what the mother cat was able to to do.
"She was in the flood in Tyrone," said King. "And some people saw her going up and down a tree as the flood waters were coming up, saving her day-old kittens."
Residents say this mama took her babies, one by one, up a tree and keeping them in that tree, until the waters went down.
"These kittens are tiny," said King. "It was miraculous she was able to hold them."
The ladies at the shelter may name this mama "river", but for now, "Heroine" fits just fine. "I look at her and she is very small and probably not a full year old yet and she had this automatic instinct and she knew what to do," said King.
