We all know that it is a mother’s instinct to protect her children. This instinct is reflected in cats, which is commonly known as “protecting kittens.” From the time the kitten is born until it can go out to find food alone, the mother cat protects it meticulously.
Many pet cats do not even allow their owners to touch their babies after giving birth to kittens. But if I told you that a mother cat abandoned her kittens that were less than two months old on the road, would you believe it?
Many times, maternal love does not necessarily mean long-term companionship and staying together. There is a kind of maternal love called letting go. I never thought that this sentence would be so profoundly interpreted by a stray cat mother.
A cat mother asking for help from humans
A tabby cat stood on the steps. Whenever someone passed by, it would make a meowing sound, and its eyes kept looking down the steps, full of anxiety and confusion, as if it was asking for help. Following the cat's eyes, he suddenly found a little milk cat lying on the ground. It was obvious that this tabby cat was the kitten's mother.
The kitten on the ground was only one or two months old. It was as skinny as a stick and collapsed on the side of the road. After hearing its mother's cry, it struggled to get up and staggered forward. It staggered and might fall at any time. People couldn't help but sweat for it.
The mother cat's pitiful screams instantly attracted the attention of many passers-by. An enthusiastic lady ran over to check on the kitten. The kitten was breathing rapidly, her cry was breathless, there were secretions around her eyes and nose, and there seemed to be injuries on her body. The situation looked very bad, and she had to be sent to a doctor for treatment immediately.
The mother cat chose to "abandon" the kitten
The mother cat seemed a little scared of people, but she still lingered around the kitten. As the number of passers-by watching the kitten gradually increased, and after realizing that someone would definitely rescue the kitten, the mother cat seemed to have made a secret decision and actually chose to turn around and leave. However, as a mother, she still couldn't let go of her child. Before leaving, the mother cat turned back frequently with her eyes full of reluctance.
Mother Cat: My child, mother has to give up on you and follow humans so that you can survive!
The young lady decided to take the kitten to the hospital for treatment. A kind passerby gave her a cardboard box, and everyone carefully put the kitten in and sent it to a nearby pet hospital.
The examination results showed that the cat was severely anemic, had hypothermia, his eyes and nose were covered, and there was no food in his stomach. During the rescue process, the cat went into shock many times. Even the pet doctor was not sure whether the little guy could survive.
Fortunately, with the full treatment of the pet doctor, the cat’s vital signs finally stabilized. After a week in the pet hospital, he could eat and walk normally.
The pet doctor told the young lady that without the treatment of a professional doctor, the kitten would never survive! The mother cat really made a wise choice.
The decision that changed the kitten's life
It is really a wonderful thing to witness a little life with your own eyes, from dying to full of vitality! After discussing with her family, the young lady decided to adopt the kitten.
The biggest wish of a cat mother is probably that her kitten has a home, someone to love her, and a life without worries about food and clothing, right?
The new home is big and has everything, but the kitten is a little scared and meows helplessly. Is it still missing its mother?
The little sister took the kitten into her arms and comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, little one! This is your home. From now on, I will be your safe haven. If you have any grievances, tell me."
After the kitten was rescued, the little sister also went to the same place to look for the mother cat, but unfortunately found nothing. Maybe it has other kittens to take care of. I hope they can meet kind-hearted people like the little sister.
After a few days of getting along with each other, the kitten became more and more clingy. It always came close to the little sister unconsciously, like a tail that couldn't be shaken off!
If the mother cat hadn't "abandoned" the kitten, this little guy would have returned to the cat star by now, right? For the sake of her children, the mother cat, who was originally extremely wary of humans, chose to put down her guard and seek help from humans. When I saw the back of the mother cat leaving, I really burst into tears.
The mother cat’s decision also changed the kitten’s life. There is a kind of maternal love called letting go, and a kind of kindness called fulfilling. I hope that every stray cat can be fulfilled by kindness.
