'We're gonna need a bigger box': Guy pulls over to rescue lonely kitten, gets ambushed by a litter of 12 baby fluffballs asking him to take them home fur good

Guys, cats are evolving. Cats are now awwdorably recognizing themselves in mirrors, they're becoming cuter and cuter to hooman eyes, and now, we have purrfect proof that they understand strategy. The days of hoomans being the #1 species on the planet are getting closer and closer to the end. Once cats understand the internet, it's over for us. We have a little bit more time until that happens, but still, they are getting smarter. 

We can see it in the video below, where one kitten wanders all alone into the road, hoping someone will stop for them. His plan works, as a man pulls over and picks him up. As soon as the kitten is in his hands, a horde of baby floofballs appear from the grass near the road and run up to their rescuer, purractically screaming at him to take them home fur good. The guy never stood a chance. 

But let's break it down for a second - they sent out their smallest kitty warrior, knowing someone will stop for just one. Then, as soon as they saw there was interest in rescue, they sent in the reinforcements. It's a purrfectly genius plan that rivals that of some of the greatest generals in recent history. Watch the whole thing unfold below - it's silly, strategic, and pawsitively cute.
