The tale of Rainbow’s origins remains relatively unknown. She was the very first kitten to enter the world out of a litter of five, and as is typical for eldest siblings, she encountered some difficulties during birth. Being the first to make her way through the birth canal took a toll on Rainbow, leaving her struggling to breathe upon arrival. Thankfully, my mother was present to aid in the delivery, and despite the overwhelming emotions I felt at the time, she persisted in resuscitating Rainbow. Through the use of cold water and unwavering determination, my mother managed to revive Rainbow after a significant duration. Witnessing her heart beating and hearing her first gentle purr was nothing short of miraculous. In the days that followed, our concerns regarding Rainbow’s well-being persisted, but she defied all odds and flourished. Transforming into a spirited and lively feline, Rainbow never fails to evoke a sense of gratitude within me for the fact that her life was spared.
