I love this!! Winnie needed you and you came through. Several years ago, we were asked to care for a teeny tiny wild bunny. A cottontail. A dog had gotten into the nest and killed all but the one. We took on the challenge and honour of caring for this ball of fluff with eyes. It went on holiday with us to Whistler and thrived. We were able to release it on our hillside property when it was old enough to care for itself and happily, we have had rabbits living on our property ever since! It's a great feeling to know you were responsible for keeping one of God's beautiful creatures alive and safe. You guys are awesome!
This was the beginning of a life changing journey for us. Thanks for watching. Can’t wait to show y’all the rest really soon ❤❤❤
When will part 2 be available to view.
where do I find part 2?
Is it “soon” yet?

That's so sweet! Animals understand more than we give them credit for sometimes. I think Winnie will be a special friend for life.
I think Winnie is the prettiest kitty ever! Such a perfect cat for your whole family. I love how your other pets accepted her so easily. That says so much about you. ❤
Winnie is the cutest. Thank you Amberley and Austin (and Fousts) for rescuing the tiny fuzz. My 3 year old watched this with me and continuously kept saying “awww, so cute”
Both of you, and the people around you, walk this planet mindlessly doing such wonderful things simply because it's in your nature. Without thinking, with just raw, pure instinct, you just help and share your talents and loving hearts. I'm so proud of you. World needs many more like you.
Bless you for saving this poor little kitten! And so glad Tim and his family were there to help. You all are such special people. ❤❤
Winnie is so darn lucky to have parents like you and Austin ❤ 😊 So cute. Will be waiting for more of her story 😊🐈
Can't waait for part 2....Austin & Amberly, you made a grown man cry !!
So sweet! I love how tender and caring Austin is! He’s going to make a great father one day! ❤
When those purrs started! That was just everything right there.
Winnie’s purring….OMG!!! Just in ❤❤❤ with her! Miss my kitties of the past.
She’s such a pretty girl and I’m not even into cats but she’s a sweetie. Love her coloring too. So blessed to have found you parents!🥰💞
So sweet! So glad you went with your instincts.
I have two cats that I bottle fed. The first one was Wilson. Found at Wilson's lumberyard at 5 days old. I was fostering two older kittens at the time. A lady I was working with to foster kittens bought me Wilson.He was my first bottle baby.That was in August 2, 2012 Wilson went everywhere we us (me and my husband). I work at an elementary school and started back at work Aug. 20, 2012. I took Wilson with me. The following week the students started school. So my wonderful Amazing neighbor became my kitty daycare lady. On Aug. 27th after getting home from work my friend calls me. She has another 7 day old kitten.Her neighbor, Jason found him abandoned in his Window well. Soaking wet covered in fleas. She asked if I would take him. Of course I said Yes! After getting a bath with Dawn liquid soap the fleas were gone. Now I had 2 bottle fed babies!
And my Amazing neighbor took care of both kittens while I was at work. We still have Wilson and Jason! They are 11 years old. We have had many cats/kittens that we have fostered. As of 5/14/23 I have 6 cats including Wilson and Jason. All have been rescued. Wilson & Jason 11yrs, Flash 9yrs, Nora (guessing) 6 yrs, Max and Molly Siblings 5 yrs. I still get updates from all my foster furbabies.
Awww! Reminds me of my daughter and Hemingway. He's senior now. Love the series. Keep it going.
Ohhh you two are so sweet with that baby kitten. Thankfully you are so kind hearted. I'm with you their's know way i could have just walked away. I dont understand anyone that could just let it die. Thank you for being such sweet , compassionate parents. I also admire Tim and his love of cats. Kind of rare in men. My son is a big cat lover. 🐈🐈⬛
Kittens are charming. You can't help but love them!
Such a sweet baby. We raised 10 babies abd it was so rewarding to experience that. When she took to the bottle i was thinking yes little girl, you can do it. Im looking forward to part 2.
Awww, well that's a ridiculously cute thing. Looking forward to seeing more.
It is so wonderful that you took Winnie on. It is not an easy thing, bottle feeding a young kitten. I did this with three abandoned kittens when I was a teenager and it takes ALOT of time and effort! I kept one of the kittens when they were old enough and that cat was my best cat ever!
I'm so glad you made a video about Winnie's journey - I couldn't have "let nature take it's course" either! She is such a sweet little thing and watching Amberly, Tim's mom, Tim (and Jenika by cell 'phone), Sebastien & Chris all worrying other the kitten was just heart-warming. I can't wait for part 2!
Awwwww. :::sniff::: Previously had a few rescues but never ones that tiny. This did wonders for my BP and mood. Jolted awake by smoke alarm going off at 5:30a, for no reason, a few days ago. On the heels of that, and already frazzled, have endured wood flooring being installed in apt directly above me for 2+ days. So...thank you. Can't wait for more of Winnie's story.
I’m so glad mine was old enough to eat watered down canned food! He’s a BIG boy now and turned three this month. It’s been fun watching Winnie grow and I’m glad we get to see the very beginning of Winnie’s life with y’all!
Sooooooo sweet 😍😍😍 ... she really is an angel 😇😇😇 ... found by two other angels (Amberly and Austin) ... Thanks, you two, for always taking care of the weak 😍😍😍😍 Love your story 😍😍😍 hugs from Germany 😘 Dany
Amberly, I've never seen you look more beautiful.
O , Winnie is so cute and precious. So great that both of you could help her. Everyone of your friends and band members.
Love that you're sharing Winnie's journey with us Amberly & Austin, can't wait to see the next part. 🥰
Winnie is very lucky that y'all have big hearts. Great job!! Amberly is a awesome mom 😊
Watching this in late July 2023. As a person who loves cats this makes my heart skip a beat. I only became aware of your channel today. It came up while I was perusing Home Free Videos. So glad it did. I'm a real fan of Matthew's singing as I used to sing tenor/lead in a barbershop quartet in the barbershop society and I recognize the gift you have been blessed with. I recently watched your trilogy videos and I am so happy you two found each other. I hope to attend a Home Free Concert sometime and get a chance to meet you. BTW Saw your cover of "Ain"t No Sunshine" which I enjoyed greatly. I have Bill Wither's version as my ring tone. God bless you both.
I remember when you found her! Look at her now! She has grown so much! I can’t wait for more. Amberly, when Winnie finally started eating, I was crying too!!! You are the best Mom and Dad Winnie could ever have! I knew you would keep her❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Such a cutie.And these were loud sounds for such a tiny thing
This was quite beautiful and touching ❤
Winnie's story is the best! God puts the right people in the right place at he right time!!! LOVE this and thank you both so much for caring so much about her. Awesome and so heartwarming! From a SETX animal lover too!
You are so lucky to have her life on video… you both did such a great job with her, if the people at that house could listen to her cries and not immediately react the way you did, I don’t want to know them!! Can’t really say exactly what I’m thinking about them.
Me too - I try not to judge but if one of them had a life-threatening illness would the others just stand by and "Let nature take its course"???
I love this story! Winnie is one lucky kitten!
I pray that God continues to bless you two wonderful humans.
Thank you! I have been waiting for Winny's story!! We have adopted cats who have been abandoned at our farm, so it broke my heart to see a tiny kitten abandoned. I'm so happy that you both were the "nature" that found and took care of her!
You two have the sweetest souls. Thank goodness you came along at the right time to save that precious baby! 😇
Oh, how sweet. I'm in tears.
Bless you for taking in this sweet baby ❤❤
So very glad to see you guys back on this channel. You are obviously amazing human beings. I could not walk away from her either. Amberly I was crying right along with you. She is such a beautiful cat now.
Oh my that got me all emotional. Glad you took such great care of Winnie.
This is so amazingly adorable and went by super fast :3 So cool to see Winnie's first bit of time in your family, and see just how much she's grown. Glad she's got a loving home after her rough start!
Awww, I just can't! ❤ So adorable. I live about 20 mins from Winnie. Glad you guys were there - right place, right time.
OMG I think that is the most adorable thing I have ever seen!! Good on you guys for adopting and caring for that precious baby. ❤❤❤
So precious 😻
Such a beautiful success story. Awesome.
Winnie is a beautiful kitten

She turned out to be a beautiful cat !
I've been wondering what became of Winnie. I am glad that he is doing well and that he can live with you. Thanks for the video. 😺
WOW what a cute little kitten, wow you took her she been big. Oh and she was so small and when she took the bottle i got tears in my eyes so cute, but you all did and amazing job with here so i am so glad you all did that so awesome job. Thank you so much 😽😽 💞💞
I love a good kitty story. Look forward to the next episode!
This happened to me a few decades ago (I was 18 then). Heard the dries coming from under a bush on our farm. Found the kitten alone with no mom in sight. Left it be but kept watch over it to see if mom showed back up, thought she may have been out hunting mice. But. No. Mom never came back. None of our barn cats had been pregnant at that time. So, it must've been left by a stray. Anyway, after 3 hours with no mom and no other cats coming near the crying, I scooped it up and took her inside and called our vet. They said to bring her right in and they would give (sell) me a formula for it. They examined her(they told me that one) found her to be healthy but hungry. The techs taught me how to bottle feed her and how to prepare the formula. They pre-scheduled all of her vet visits for the upcoming months at important points in her development. To make a long story tolerable, she grew up to be a housecat and was named "Putt". The whole thing was labor and love intensive and was one of the best life lessons I could ever have.
Love this story- great work on editing and narrative 🙌🏼 The preview clips were great. Awaiting part 2 ❤
I cried 😢. Yeah I did. I'm so happy tho. Winnie hit the jackpot in the parents dept.❣️ And what a great extended family too! Thank u for sharing her story and I can't wait for the next episode. 🐈💓#homefries

usually a part 1 has at least a part 2
Mistaking the sex of a baby kitten is not unusual, I think. I had absolutely decided not to get another cat after my cat passed away. And then a friend posted a picture of an irate kitten in a cage on Facebook. A stray had had a litter and once they were weaned she and a neighbor were catching them and finding them homes so they wouldn't be strays also. I said if you can't find anybody else, I'll take the kitten so he doesn't go to the animal shelter. She said, "I'll bring him over on Friday 😊". Okey doke. I named him Vincent (after Van Gogh). Then she took him to the vet with the kitten she was keeping and found out that while her kitten was, indeed, a boy, mine was not. SHE got renamed Agatha (after Christie) on the fly.
Agatha was somewhat feral when she first arrived and after escaping from the bathroom, disappeared into my apartment for four months. I knew she was there because at night when I was sleeping she'd eat her food, drink her water, reprocess same into the litter box, and move her toys around. It was like having a ghost cat. I began to wonder if it hadn't been a mistake to name her after a writer who famously went missing for a time. 😅. Eventually she started letting me see her at a distance and finally she made friends with my feet. 😊 She is a normal half-standoffish/half-affectionate cat now. 😁 She demands attention on her own time and on her own terms.
Hey Amberly, does Austin purr in the morning too? 😋😂
I remember when y’all first found her, y’all got this ol fart cryin 😢
The little purrs 🥺
