Mother cat sneaks into vet clinic to re-unite with her abandoned kittens

When the employees showed up for work at Mill Road Veterinary Clinic in Whangarei, New Zealand, they found a box out front with tiny 3-week old kittens inside, according to AOL It's not the first time, and unfortunately it won't be the last time that someone dumps animals for them. So the kittens came inside the clinic and settled in.

But soon after they did, vets and nurses noticed a big cat stalking the premises for days on end.

And every time they opened the door, she tried to dart inside.

"We noticed a tabby cat hanging around our front door, trying to sneak in every time a client arrived. When we realized the cat wasn't going to go away, we picked her up and discovered she was a feeding Mum," the clinic said on its Facebook page.

When the staff brought in the cat and introduced her to the kittens, sure enough, it was evident that they were hers said Veterinarian Julie Wells.

She had tracked them down, and being the fantastic mother that she is, she needed to take care of her babies.
