Couple catches their cat climbing into the baby's crib on the baby monitor every night, and they quickly realize that the rescued cat is not only theirs, she's the baby's too: 'She was like a tiny babysitter, taking over a shift'
If you've ever wondered what is most likely going to happen with your cat once you have a baby… the answer is right here.
Raise your hand if you are someone who has a cat, wants to have babies one day, and is terrified of the two not being literal friends. I would raise my hand. This has been a worry of mine for the longest time, and I suppose that until I actually have a child, I will never know how things will turn out. My worst fear is my cat and my baby not getting along. As someone who looks for stories about cats and writes about them for a living, I have seen too many stories of people rehoming cats for all kinds of reasons, and I cannot imagine ever having to do that with mine, even if the worst happens. But I've also seen many, many stories like the one I have for you today.
Cats and babies. Two precious and adorable things together. Yes, I'm worried about my cat and my future baby hating each other, but it's stories like these that really give me hope. Some cats love babies. Not just "like", not just "tolerate", some cats really do love human babies. It's hard to explain exactly why. Maybe they can tell that we love our babies, and so they think they should love them too. Maybe a baby's milky, soft and warm smell is something that cats are attracted to. We don't care why. We just think that it's the sweetest thing in the world.
The cat in today's video clearly loves this baby. Every night, the cat cuddles with the baby in its crib, and the owners, despite trying to separate the two ad make sure that they are together only when there is someone supervising, can't stop it every time. They have accepted the fact that this cat has adopted their baby and that she belongs to the baby just as much as she belongs to them. They are one big adorable family, and we can only hope that is in our cards as well.
