Benny was part of a litter from his feline mom, a stray. All of his sibling kittens were born sick. But Benny was the worst of the four. He had an upper respiratory infection and an enormous amount of parasites to deal with.
A veterinary technician named Ellen Carozza wanted to take in Benny and his siblings… to foster them… and try to nurse them all back to health the best she could. And once they were strong enough, she would adopt them out to loving families. So she nursed them all back to health and did as she said she would do… adopted them out to loving families.
But there was something about Benny… something very lovable. And she just couldn’t let him go. So she decided to keep him. Benny was such a sweet cat now, and she just loved him. It wasn’t long after Ellen adopted Benny that she took in another litter of kittens to foster.
She wanted to nurture them and help them out just as much as she helped Benny and his siblings. But something really odd happened. Benny made friends with all the little kittens and took as much care of them as Ellen did, and that’s shown in all the Instagram photos Ellen posts on her page, a page that’s followed by more than 1,08,000 people.
Benny would cuddle with them, nap with them and even give them baths. He taught them how to be good kittens. And when the kittens got upset by something and started crying, Benny would give them a pat on the head, and maybe a lick or two… letting them know that everything was going to be fine.
Ellen was just amazed by this. So she started fostering more and more litters. And with each one, Benny was just as excited to see them as the last litter. It’s almost like he knew it was his big chance to make a difference in a young one’s life. Or maybe part of it was him paying off a debt to Ellen in his own way for how she took such good care of him and his siblings.
Whatever the reason, he’s quite a cat. And Ellen could not have kept a finer one.
