When nonna realized the kitten was reacting to her gestures, nonna made the most famous Italian hand movement of all!
If you come from an Italian family or have ever talked to an Italian, then you know that their language is more than just sounds with their mouths, it's very much also hand gestures. We all know the *chef's kiss* hand gestures and, of course, the classic Italian hand movement when you touch all the tips of your fingers together. Well, this Italian grandma was making the classic hand gestures while talking to her grand daughter. She had come to visit at a time when the grand daughter had recently gotten a kitten.
The Italian grandma was obviously enamored with the kitten, so allowed her to perch on her lap while she chatted with her grand daughter. As her hands are moving all over the place, as Italians do when they talk, the cat was very intrigued. In fact, the cat was hypnotized. The cutie lil orange baby couldn't take his eyes off of those hands.
As the grandma spoke, the cat would try to catch her hands, but the nonna didn't even notice. She kept talking with her hands like she normally does and the cat took it as playtime. Eventually, nonna noticed the kitty trying to swat at her hands playfully, and then she gave the kitten the most classic Italian hand gesture of them all. It was a beautiful moment captured and we love this kitten and nonna duo.
