Students Surprise Devastated Teacher With Kittens

A school teacher, Mrs. Tonya Andrews, of Joshua High School in Texas was sharing her heartache to her students about her passing cat. Hence, after hearing their devastated math instructor's cries, her loving learners surprised her with a gift she will never forget.

Mrs. Tonya Andrews broke down in tears when she was telling her students her 16-year-old cat passed away. A student named Rachel Hanhart, along with her classmates, were moved on her professor's story and decided to give their teacher something that will cheer her up, as per Buzz Feed.

The students first thought of giving her flowers and sweets, but Rachel's mother had a much better idea. She looked for a new kitten ready for adoption that night that will replace Mrs. Tonya Andrews's deceased feline.

The next day, Rachel and her classmates shocked Mrs. Tonya Andrews with a bouquet of white flowers and cupcakes. The teacher looked very touched as she saw the kittens and, once again, burst into tears.

In one moment, Mrs. Tonya Andrews even clapped her hands in astonishment while picking up one kitten and asking if it's indeed for her, according to Hello! Magazine. She, then, kissed and hugged her new pets and was very happy.

In spite of Mrs. Tonya Andrews's claim that she will get a new cat for herself over the weekend, the girls made sure they will get her a new cat before she did. Rachel, on the other hand, shared a video her surprise on her Twitter page.

"We surprised our teacher with kittens because her cat passed away yesterday," she captioned the clip. The tweet was now being retweeted for over 68,000 times.
