The Little Tuxedo Kitten With Eyes That Captivated The World

Sprout is a tuxedo kitten with very large eyes, and her story has a happy ending.

At 5 weeks old she was alone in a shelter, without her mother or siblings. She was malnourished and fragile. Amber, a foster mom from Melbourne, took her in.

Amber, known on Instagram as @kitty_fostering_oz, has plenty of experience with kittens in need. When she heard about Sprout she didn’t hesitate. The kitten was “losing weight daily and retreating more and more into herself,” as Amber told Love Meow. But with Amber’s care she began to pick up, and her big eyes and personality started to show.

Sprout began to gain weight, play and show off a mischievous side. She is now full of energy and always ready for cuddles. She likes to sneak attack the other kittens in her foster home, race around the house, and snuggle under the blanket at night, purring.

She was once a quiet kitten with a silent meow. Now she has a voice to match her personality, and she announces herself whenever she sees her humans.

From a fragile, lonely kitten, Sprout has become a confident, fluffy tuxedo cat.
