In 1996 Scarlet, badly burned and bleeding, pulled her five kittens from a raging fire. She lived a pampered life with her adoptive family in Brooklyn, New York for over 12 years until she lost her battle with multiple illnesses last week.

May this amazing and brave mommy feline find peace over the Rainbow bridge. Goodness knows she deserves peace and serenity. Saddened to hear of her passing, but happy to know she found a loving home and family who cared for her til her final day.

Oh God I remember that episode as if it happened yesterday. She was a wonderful soul. I'm glad she found 12 years of happiness awaiting for her after she almost gave her life for her kittens. May she rest in peace in Elysium, little sweetheart

Just read this and touched to tears. How can we convey our ovation and support to the family? Hope they're adopting another soul.
Thank you Kate.

I'm glad the last twelve years of her life were filled with love! She is surely at peace now, keeping a watchful eye on every one from across the Rainbow Bridge.
