Stray momma dog whose puppies were born premature gets gifted 3 baby kittens who needed a mom, and together, they healed each other: 'Her instincts were so strong to mother something'

Mothers are simply incredible. They can purrform superhooman feats to save their babies, go through months of pregnancy and labor to give birth to new life, and then have to deal with their whining children (and partner) all while being a mom and attempting to navigate through life. And we're not just talking about biological moms, we're also talking about step-moms, moms who are like family to their kids' friends, and even adopted mothers. This may be hard to picture in hooman life, but it's pawsitively common in the animal world!

Animals with that motherly instinct will help raise almost any animal in need. We've seen this before in cats when they adopt strangers' kittens or even when they adopt lynx cubs into their litter, and in this video, we can also see it with this stray momma dog who lost her puppies, but was gifted three baby kittens who needed a mom. She raised them happily, and even got to stay with her furrvorite kitten after the other two got adopted. So, to all the moms our there, thank you!
