Motherhood, whether you are human or feline, is a full-time job with no days off. One exhausted mama cat in Arizona decided she had enough. 

When taking care of her tiny kittens became a little too much, she came up with a brilliant plan. She brought them straight to her human for some extra help.

The now-viral video was shared on TikTok by user @joining_the_jones, who captured the funny and heart-melting moment right before bedtime. 

The clip starts with the owner settling into bed, ready to unwind after a long day, when suddenly her cat walks in carrying something small and furry.

At first, she could not believe what she was seeing. Her cat was carrying her kittens, one by one, right into the bedroom. By the time she realized what was happening, there was already a pile of tiny babies snuggled up on her bed.

It was as if the cat was saying:

“Move over, hooman, I’m clocking out for the night.”

The video, captioned “Mama just needed a little break I guess,” quickly took off and now has over six million views. People everywhere could not stop laughing and relating to the tired mama cat who knew exactly what she needed: a nap and a helping hand.

In the clip, the cat proudly climbs onto the bed after bringing the last kitten in, gets them all tucked in safely, and then nestles right beside them. 

The owner joked that it almost felt like the cat was politely saying:

“Excuse me, ma’am, I just put my kids to bed.”

You can almost hear the unspoken message behind that adorable feline stare:

“You can babysit for a bit, right?”

After all, even the most devoted moms deserve a little break from time to time. And in this case, her “hooman grandma” was more than happy to step in for some kitten-sitting duty.

Kittens might look sweet and innocent, but anyone who has ever cared for a litter knows they can be a real handful. Between feeding, grooming, and keeping them from tumbling off every surface imaginable, it is no wonder this tired mama needed a rest.

Thanks to her thoughtful human, the cat family got to enjoy a cozy evening, and millions of viewers around the world got a much-needed laugh.

The video’s combination of humor and heart quickly made it a favorite among animal lovers everywhere.

As the kittens purred happily under the covers and their mom curled up beside them, the internet agreed that this Arizona cat mom truly understood the importance of self-care.

So next time you see your cat sneaking onto your bed, do not be surprised if she is just trying to drop off her kids.
