A litter of four kittens were left behind on the streets in Williamsburg, Brooklyn a little over a year ago.

When a few good Samaritans found out that they had lost their cat mama, they sprang into action to save these timid little kittens.

In August last year Ike Osbun and his co-workers noticed a small litter of kittens and their mama cat hanging around their workplace.

“After a few days of seeing them here and there they were still pretty timid of humans. Something must have scared the mom because she abandoned them,” Ike told Love Meow.

They waited for the mama to come back but she never did, so together they started feeding the kittens and working on getting their trust. After a few feeding sessions, the kittens became more friendly.
