A seasoned rescuer, Grace Choi regularly shares her adventures as a foster carer on social media.
A few weeks ago, the young woman decided to rescue three kittens who were in a sorry state. They seemed to be fading away at the shelter. But once they were in her home, the kittens began to open up.
An adorable thank you
After sharing her very first meeting with the three adorable furballs, Grace Choi posted about the kittens' first moments in her home. They were now safe, warm, and being thoroughly pampered.
In one adorable video, you can see one of the kittens climbing on her and meowing repeatedly, as if to say thank you. The video was filmed just after the little troop arrived at her house.
It was a truly sweet moment that proved very popular on social media. Now, everyone is hoping that these three kittens will quickly find their forever homes.
