Ponchik, Pelmesh, Chernish, and their other brothers from the Kolaskin family came into this world in an unusual place—a baby stroller in the hallway, where their mother Larysa Ivanovna attempted to provide them shelter. When the kittens were brought to the animal shelter with their mother, they found not just safety but a peaceful place where they could remain a family.

Devoted sons

Even as they grow into adult cats, they still rely on the support of their wise mother. Ponchik, a big and strong cat, runs to hide behind Larysa Ivanovna at the first sign of danger or the appearance of a stranger, seeking comfort and protection. All the brothers get along well with each other and the other residents, but they tend to shy away from people and, like their mother, do not seek closeness with them—therefore, they continue to live in the shelter.
