At 3-4 days old, they had already used several of their nine lives.Found abandoned in a bag and covered in gunk and debris, they were the only survivors of their litter. When Gianna Cirucci and her sister Gab, co-founders of Foster the Furbabies, learned about their plight, they immediately stepped up to take them.”For the first two weeks, they refused to eat on their own, so I had to tube-feed them every two hours,” Gianna shared with Love Meow.Foster the FurbabiesIt was touch and go for a while, a “very nerve-racking time.” Gianna worked around the clock to provide the kittens with critical care and prepared herself for the worst every time she entered the foster room.She took it one day at a time and ensured the kittens were fed, warm, clean, and given the best care possible.Winston and MillerFoster the FurbabiesAfter several trips to the vet’s office and countless sleepless nights for the foster mom, the two brothers started to improve, and their vexing stomach issues began to subside.Gianna put her all into the kittens, hoping they could get through this rough patch and start thriving. When Winston and Miller latched onto their bottle for the first time, Gianna could breathe a long sigh of relief.Foster the Furbabies”The moment I knew/hoped they’d be okay was around the 3-week mark when they started taking the bottle really well and no longer needed to be tube-fed.”Winston, a polydactyl, grew into an affectionate snuggle bug, and his brother was his ride-or-die, always by his side. Just when Gianna thought everything was going smoothly, life threw the kittens another curveball.Winston became quite a snuggle bugFoster the FurbabiesAfter having gone through treatments for infections and stomach troubles, the kittens were later discovered to have calicivirus. “They’ve been through a lot in their short little lives.”Gianna never stopped fighting for them, and Winston never ceased purring and kneading with his big mittens whenever he cuddled in her arms.Foster the FurbabiesWith the help of their loving foster family and a dedicated vet team, the feline brothers have conquered many battles and emerged victorious.They are finally thriving with bright eyes, plenty of energy, and voracious appetites.Miller and Winston are a bonded pairFoster the Furbabies”Winston is my little love bug who still acts like a baby.

They get the zoomies and run around their room like crazy, just bouncing off the walls and playing with any toy they can find. That usually ends in them getting tired out and finding my lap to nap in.”Winston gave the sweetest reaction when Gianna tended to himFoster the Furbabies”Winston will choose me over food, but Miller chooses food over me.”Having gone through so much together, the two brothers are inseparable.
