Another Saturday is here, and despite all of our warnings, you guys have come here yet again. It's like you're not paying attention! No, you didn't read the title wrong. This listicle is full of teeny weeny awwdorable kitties, but that doesn't mean that they are not dangerous criminals! Don't let your misconceptions rule you when it comes to these tiny criminals. You know, deep in your gut, that they are dangerous. Itty bitty kitties are so fierce. Powerful. One glance, and suddenly, you're willing to do anything for them.

We even make this segment, showcasing the smallest kittens - i.e. biggest criminals - every single week. They have that much power over us. Their cuteness is simply overwhelming. We cannot resist them. And apparently, neither can you, because y'all just keep showing up here. Continue at your own risk, people, and when you find yourself in a shelter later today looking to adopt yet another kitten, don't say we didn't warn you.

"She's severely underweight 167g when she's supposed to be in the 400s but she can still move let me tell you… She's 2 weeks behind in her weight, she turned 4 weeks exactly today hence why she looks so little."

"I was supposed to take a stray that I recently took in to the vet in the morning to confirm that she was pregnant. I don’t think that’s going to be necessary."

"Almost not pregnant anymore: kitty number 4 was just born… This is my first time witnessing all this, but Mama seems content, and the babies seem healthy as far as I can tell… It's a bit stressful. She has 3 roughly 4-month old kittens as well, and they're all in my apartment for the time being. And I don't know if Mama is even done yet… I'm new to raising newborn kittens, and I was shocked at how vocal they are! The last little baby was mewing at a few minutes old."
