Once upon a time…

…a NYC couple named Kat & Jackson moved to Costa Rica during a global pandemic. On their very first day in the country, they met a friendly street cat while picking up their rental car. One month later, they saw that same street cat again — and realized she was pregnant! Kat and Jackson decided to rescue the sweet stray, who they named Natilla. A few short weeks later, Natilla gave birth to five healthy babies. Two months after that, Jackson, Kat, and all six cats travelled nearly 2,000 miles back to the United States, where three of the kittens were later adopted by loving homes.

Natilla, her son Dave, and her daughter Gandalf are currently living their best lives with Kat & Jackson in Colorado.
