Any parent out there understands the primal need to protect your children no matter what. They always come first, and there is nothing you wouldn't do to ensure they are happy and safe all of the time. This parental instinct is obviously not something only hoomans feel. We see parents of all shapes and forms giving their all to protect their babies, which is why we feel it so strongly. Every mother, and every father, share those thoughts and needs.

Bearing witness to how a fluffy parent in nature is trying to protect their children, is one of the most beautiful things we hoomans get to see. And there's nothing more satisfying than also being able to help. Even just easing the mind of that sweet pawrent, by providing food, water, or shelter to them and their kids, is a great honor, and we appreciate anyone who does so.

Just as we appreciate the awwdorable hoomans in the story below, who helped a mama cat and her many kittens to find a home.
