WATCH: Rescued Pregnant Cat, Shot With BB Gun, Has Given Birth
Several weeks ago, Branford animal refuge workers rescued a pregnant cat who'd been shot with a BB gun; the pellet lodged near her heart.
BRANFORD, CT — Back in February, the Dan Cosgrove Animal Shelter and the Branford Compassion Club worked together to trap, rescue and rehabilitate cats around the area of Route 1 and Montoya Apartments.

It's okay, this has a happy ending.

A few days ago, brave girl Sachi gave birth to a litter of (adorable) kittens.
