WEEK IN MY LIFE | STORYTIME: what really happened to Travis, looking at kittens + more

[@dotsonms]

I hope the shelter was notified! That person has no business fostering kittens! 😢

[@marandakeck9868]

Came here to say that! She has no business being a foster in addition with a pitbull mix!!

[@2bfamos]

Same here! I’ve fostered kittens before, and the fact that I was made to screen people who wanted to adopt a kitten makes me wonder what type of organization would require you to submit an application yet allow the foster family to even foster knowing they had a dog, let alone a pit-bull. Nothing against dogs-but talk about irresponsible and deplorable that a sweet little life was taken in the most unimaginable way because of what? I just moved here, but in San Diego this is something we’d report to the San Diego Humane Society. No. Just no. I do think it’s sweet that Maddie named the new kitten after Travis. But I almost wish I’d never seen footage of the baby that was killed. 😢

[@KandiceArrington22]

I third this! I came to say this. 😢

[@fionamchugh2809]

Omg that’s so traumatic, you will be heartbroken. That lady should never have animals again. Xx

[@MadisonWestbrooke]

Yeah:((

[@chellesoup]

I’m so sorry. I agree the foster needs to be removed from all foster lists. Sending you hugs and love.

[@MadisonWestbrooke]

Thank you❤️

[@jilliangarber3839]

Fellow kitty mama here! The bouquet of flowers on your island has lilies in it & all lilies are extremely toxic for cats! Just a friendly heads up to protect your fur babies! Wishing you the best with your new kitten!! 🩶

[@EmsFitVenture]

Yes! You should not even have them in your home if you have cats. The pollen and all is poisonous.

[@SarahSchneider2]

That is so awful and so much more heartbreaking than I originally thought. From the Instagram story I initially thought a car accident was the accident but this is so much more traumatic. The foster shouldn’t be able to foster again that is for sure. Plus from now on maybe the rescue should temperament test any dog that’s going to share the house (no matter the breed) with kittens before approving someone as a foster. You ended with a cute kitten in the end but supper sad that it had to end this way for the original kitten plus his litter mates.

[@MadisonWestbrooke]

I agree!!

[@lexiegillette4856]

I was not prepared to cry 🥺💔 oh my gosh poor Travy, I’m so sorry Madi

[@MadisonWestbrooke]

He’s in happy kitty heaven now and sent Travis jr to us🥰

[@lexiegillette4856]

@@MadisonWestbrooke absolutely honey! And he’s just as adorable and sweet as Travis was 😘 I can’t wait to see how he gets along with Marlee

[@bethanygraceeeeee]

Oh Madi. I’m so sorry you went through all that, it’s heartbreaking. But so happy that you managed to get a healthy kitten in the end 💗

[@KNSage]

I’m so, so glad it worked out and you were able to find this Travis, keeping the name and breed is a beautiful way to honor the original. But I’m sorry for everything you went through due to someone else’s gross negligence, sending love and good vibes ❤

[@LindaLTPs]

Oh Madi 😢 I’m so so sorry to hear about Travis and this foster person. 💔 I’m heartbroken for Travis and all of the kittens that have been in that home. I’m heartbroken for that Rescue, because that person has probably fostered for them before, however, thankfully will probably never foster ever again. And I’m heartbroken for you and Dawson. Sending love, hugs and prayers to you and for furry friends in foster care or heartbreaking situations everywhere. There’s no reason for a foster to ever not reach out for help when there’s been an accident. They don’t get paid, and every rescue provides healthcare for the foster pets. There’s no reason this should have ever happened. 🥺

[@LindaLTPs]

I’m happy you and Dawson and Marlee have a new baby in your family after all the trauma in the past couple of weeks. 💙

[@lachlanandrews3596]

I’m so happy that you finally found a perfect replacement for Travis, Madi. And I’m so sorry that you had to experience that with the original Travis. I continue to pray and hope that this new cat will have a long and happy life knowing he’s with good people such as you and your family!

[@markg4336]

Aww I'm sorry to hear that Madi.. I was so excited for yall as well that makes me sad... But i pray yall be able to find another kitten like Travis.. Prayers go out to you and Dolson. Glade u fine the one you wanted !

[@juliarussianqueen27]

I would say if they’re not going to do anything with the Pitbull then for them to never have kittens or any other animal around. It’s sad to think they didnt get it after the first incident with 2 of the kittens. That’s really messed up and pisses me off. None of that had to happen and Im sorry for you and those kittens. 💔

[@jancarlson2165]

Madi so sorry about Travis, 😭. So happy tho about the new Travis, what a beautiful boy!! That lady should never foster any kittens and I would never trust children around that dog either. Love u❤❤

[@amandablodgett3713]

I wanted to cry thinking of Travis meowing for help. Rest in peace Travis I😥

[@walkwithwilz]

Was sad to hear that story, we are sorry you all had to go through that but so glad, in the end you ended up with another beautiful member for the family, warmest welcome Travis ♥️

[@deborahfine3893]

I’m so sorry 😢Hugs to you ❤

[@rachelg5321]

Girl this is so sad!! I’m so sorry 😞

[@debrablevins5600]

I’m so sorry Madi that happened to you. That makes me cry. I was adopting a Puppy from the humane society, and I watched them from just born to 8 weeks old. I was the first one to have a choice of the litter. I went over her house, played with all of them, and picked the one I would like. The woman wouldn’t even go away so I could play with him. Then she was trying to tell me that I was not going to potentially get him cause she wanted to give him to someone else. I was like hold on I have first choice, and puppies have to get use to being around you and smell your scent to. So I had to call the Manager of Humane Society and tell her she wouldn’t give me the puppy I wanted. It was a stressful situation. I literally watch them from start to finish. I love Travis he is cute and I hope he makes you really happy. I ended up getting my puppy he is now going to be 4 in Oct. I will see him grow up with you on your videos. Much Love girl. Marley has a brother now. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@jaimebh30]

Travis is adorable! I hope Travis and Marley are adjusting well together!

[@crazycatmamainthesip]

Sending you love and positive thoughts ❤❤ praying for you

[@MadisonWestbrooke]

Thank you❤️

[@crazycatmamainthesip]

@@MadisonWestbrooke you're welcome

[@TheStormyrules]

Madi…😮😭🤬 All the emotions I felt when I heard the awful news, I’m so sorry. I know how it feels when a fur baby has such a tragic ending by a dog. Sending you all the love and support you deserve. I am happy you did find Marlee ‘s new bestie❤

[@AnnaNolanOfficial]

THAT PERSON HAS NO BUSINESS FOSTERING SWEET LITTLE KITTENS. I hope they realize that. I also hope this family sees these comments and realize the heartbreak they have caused for you. this is horrible. also such a side note, where are your sunglasses from??

[@monicaelms6615]

No she doesn’t!!! She’s ridiculous

[@TheLaurenNorris]

Forever thinking of Travvy❤🥹 I love you so much

[@MadisonWestbrooke]

Love you sm🥰❤️

[@susangalkowski]

Oh Madi, I’m so incredibly sorry that Travis died like that. I just wish I can hug you in a tight embrace!! That woman should never be allowed to foster kittens ever again!

[@mintflower444]

So sorry for your loss. I go to church and we always had kittens so I know the pain.

[@hollyallred8432]

I had a Russian blue named Annie for 12 years. Such a sweetheart. Sorry about about your loss.

[@allisonclark785]

I’m so sorry madi hugs to you🩷

[@kelliedonnell8891]

I’m so sorry you went through that, Madi. That lady should not be a foster!

[@paypay1205]

I am sobbing 😭😭 I’m so sorry Madi 😭 that is just awful

[@MadisonWestbrooke]

It is :(( thank you

[@alexisperry9467]

i’m so sorry🥺🫶🏻

[@lilious71]

I’m so sorry to hear about those kittens. That woman had no business fostering when she had a pitbull in the house. I don’t care how sweet she thinks her dog is, it’s just not good to do that because now look what happened. I saw the end of your video and you have a new Travi. He looks really cute. But please, if you do decide to ever adopt another cat, please adopt one from a shelter. Shelter animals are just as good and they really need love. It’s awful how many shelter animals get euthanized. All animals need love, but especially ones in shelters that are fighting for their lives. 💕

[@monicaelms6615]

Yes agree!!!!

[@kbl55429]

Awww, so sorry about the original Travis, something feels off with that story, I feel like it was the lady but she blamed it on the dog bc it is so old. I’m glad you found your cat though, he’s precious. Also with two cats now have you thought about getting one of those self cleaning robot litter box that a lot of people have?

[@ryababe24]

Omg. I'm crying 😢😢 RIP Travis ❤❤

[@billiejopierson371]

I am glad you found another kitten

[@MadisonWestbrooke]

Me too:)

[@monicaelms6615]

Yes me too!!!

[@hollyathey4267]

That’s terrible!! She shouldn’t be allowed foster any animals because of that! Pits can be very very aggressive. I’m so sorry honey you will find another baby ❤

[@monicaelms6615]

Hiiii Travisss!!! Love youu!🩶

[@billiejopierson371]

I’m so sorry too here that 😢😢😢

[@jesseedanielle]

I’m so sorry Madi…

[@TalynPerry]

Can you do a review on your oura ring? I have been thinking about getting one, but would like to hear your thoughts on it. :)

[@simplyboppingK]

UGH I'm so sorry! Also, you did NOT place blame on the dog at all, but I just wanted to say that not all pitbulls are bad. Either way, this is still a devastating story. I can't imagine. Just finished the end AHHH!! Congrats on the new kitty

[@vickyodonnell2485]

Such a sad turn of events. I thought about getting a cat, but I have a pit bull, and he has anxiety, so I wouldn't be able to.

[@katieridley6848]

I am so sorry about Travis, I hope the foster receives consequences for their irresponsibility 😢

[@messymissy753]

I'm sorry. That is devastating

[@KandiceArrington22]

I’m so sorry madi, this is heart breaking 💔 my cat (who is a Siamese and rag doll mix) was attacked by a dog when she was a kitten. She has a hole in esophagus from it, so she struggles to breath and she has to eat slow but I’m lucky she made it. 😢🥺

[@Vickiboe592]

The Russian kitten: you made it about you. Did you think of the poor kitten? It was probably terrified. He could have been a great part of your family if you’d given him a chance. Youth ….

[@nikkolejones]

I also have a grey male baby and they are just the best❤

[@MySunshine234]

Aw my Frankie passed away in June I’m going to be moving next spring so I will get a cat then there’s a really great cat rescue where I live cats just melt my heart

[@Taylor-on7kk]

Oh wow madi…..that’s awful I’m so sorry 😢😭

[@cynthiabutler3363]

I have been so worried about you and what was going on and why you were not posting.

[@MadisonWestbrooke]

Been super busy with work but plan to get back on schedule soon!

[@AndreRocha-qi4jc]

I am sorry Madi. You suffered more in your life than most people.

[@Courtney-Alice-Gargani]

Your cat is so cute. Did you get her when she was a kitten? My older sister has a cat that kinda looks like yours. Her name is Fluffy.

[@MadisonWestbrooke]

Yes back in college

[@katieridley6848]

My girlie is a Russian blue and she’s sooo fluffy and pretty 😂

[@emmasimpson6562]

Beautiful 😻😻😻😻

The First Lady should have no business running a foster . But ur new baby is so cute

[@caitlynjolley9194]

❤

[@kurthealy9508]

Kittens are a chore but they sure are adorable

[@Simplylakesha]

Wow, I have the adoption lady stop using that foster! Smh Sorry for your loss and congrats on finding a new kitty

[@Jen-qd4qc]

That person shouldn’t be allowed to foster.

[@BellaBeeBaby]

Was this saving hope rescue?

[@shyanvigil805]

They shouldn't have fostered anywhere unless their animals are okay with other animals. That's how it is here. It has to be a friendly home. I'm sorry you went through that love.

[@monicaelms6615]

Yah that foster is ridiculous!!

[@crazycatmamainthesip]

It is I had a Russian blue for 14 years, she passed away from old age.❤❤

[@2bfamos]

Aww, sending hugs to you. ❤❤❤ My soulcat of 21 years died in May, and my heart has no idea how to process it. You’re not alone. ❤❤❤

[@crazycatmamainthesip]

@@2bfamos awe I'm so sorry. They are not pets they are family.

[@monicaelms6615]

Aww so sorry!!!

[@asiamcgill]

Love you

[@MadisonWestbrooke]

❤️❤️

[@MellieIRL]

How is this person allowed to still foster?! Poor Travis :/

[@stephsoto]

So sorry girl!😢 If you're a foster your dogs & cats need to be friendly with the other. My dogs aren't dog friendly or cat friendly so we could never foster. It definitely sounds like she shouldn't be fostering....at least cats.

[@annamaliagregory]

confused as to why she was fostering kittens in the same home as a big dog and carelessly leaving the door open that is ridiculous. and the fact she has done it multiple times does not make it okay. we have had multiple baby ducks but i made sure to keep them away from my golden retriever even though he is the sweetest dog ever but he can play rough. i am so sorry girl 🫶🏼

[@Darkshade_01]

Lovely

[@xiguachew]

That lady should not be fostering! she should be banned!

[@maggiebranch9296]

Hey Madi

[@MadisonWestbrooke]

Hiiii

[@cierraboone1390]

are we even watching this?!

[@LarissaLifestyle]

Maddie so happy for you! Hope Travy loves Marley, looks like he is plauful😊

[@jackiehartmansvlogs626]

Wow how wild peaple are

[@belindaposton8903]

Please stop making it seem like it was because the dog was a pit bull 😢

[@proper.role.model.819]

No one with pitbulls should even be fostering. Even dogs
