Having been writing for ICanHas for as long as we have, every once in a while, we see stories about pregnant cats asking humans for help - approaching them, meowing at them, following them. And we can't help but ask ourselves what we would do if this happened to us. We would like to think that we would do the best thing - help the pregnant kitty and her babies, possibly adopt some or all of them. But we know that's easier said than done and that most people would probably not do it. That's why we're so thankful to the man in this twitter thread.
5 years ago, a pregnant cat gave birth under a random man's bed. He came back, was shocked to find her there, and went to twitter for help. Back then, the thread went mega-viral, and that's because not only did the man decide to help the momma cat and her kittens but also to adopt them all. Today, we have an update from him.

We didn't know how much we wanted an update on this iconic story until we got it. And goodness, we are so, so happy to see all these kittens alive and well and well taken care of. This man is still one of the most amazing cat owners that we have ever come across online, and we would love, love, love to see more updates about these sweethearts.
For those of you who don't remember the story, here's a snippet of the old viral thread, starting with one of the most iconic images online. Reading this man's reaction and commentary about the situation has made us smile years later as if it was the first time we were reading the story.
