20 Purrfectly Sweet Scenes of Feline Babysitters and Their Favorite Little Humans

Hey there, fellow cat lovers and aspiring parents. If you've ever found yourself watching a cat curl up next to a baby or gently boop a toddler's nose with their soft little paw and thinking, "Wow, I could really use my own fluffball as a future babysitter," you are absolutely not alone. One day, we dream of having tiny hoomans of our own, adorable, drooly, snack-demanding bundles of joy, and when that day comes, we fully intend to enlist our cats as honorary babysitters. Free of charge. Paid in treats.

Because the truth is, some cats are surprisingly great with kids. When they're not knocking things off counters or launching zoomie attacks, they can be gentle, patient, and full of love. They seem to sense just how fragile little hoomans are and often rise to the occasion in the most adorable ways possible.
