Sweet Cat Comes Up To Human, Asks For Help, Adopts Her Chosen Human, Then Unexpectedly Gives Birth To 6 Kittens
Cats are wonderful, independent creatures. They can take care of themselves, they don't need no help from no hoomans, they can handle the world. But the world can be really difficult sometimes, and even cats, independent as they are, recognize that part of being responsible can be asking for help - even from the scary humans. We see it all the time. Like when we saw the video of the teeny weeny abandoned kitten who blocked a man's car and asked him for help, or when we read the story about the cat who came to the family she chose and asked them for help with her newborn kittens, or the one about the pregnant cat who waited at someone's door with her two kittens and asked the humans inside for help.
It seems to be especially true for pregnant cats or mother cats. They recognize that - sometimes - without external help, their babies would be at risk. Today's story is about one such cat. The story is full of so many twists and turns, and somehow, that just makes the ending all that much more wholesome.

"My cat had kittens about 9 weeks ago. Story time!!"
"So...one day my husband was taking out the trash and this cute Lil thing just came right up to him and was begging for pets! She followed him home and wouldn't leave our porch! I worked over night and I sit out on our porch to smoke a ciggy before bed and she hopped right over the fence and was all over me! We left her outside for the weekend and everytime...she came back! So we let her inside and she made herself right at home!"
