I’m always surprised by the way cats show their gratitude. Whether it’s through feeding them or providing a warm shelter, our feline friends make sure to express their appreciation by either purring, cuddling next to us, or bringing special gifts.
However, the ultimate “Thank you” from a cat is when they entrust us with their newborns. If a cat brings her kittens to you, it’s a clear sign of her immense trust and appreciation.
This is exactly what happened to a kind man in our story today, who fed a pregnant stray cat only to be surprised with a special furry gift from her the very next day.
Two Kittens For A Kind Man
One ordinary day, a kind man named Rizwan saw a familiar tortoiseshell stray cat approaching his house, carrying something in her mouth.
Rizwan, who runs his own nonprofit dedicated to helping stray cats, recognized her as the pregnant cat he had fed the day before.
He soon realized that she was no longer pregnant; she was carrying two kittens in her mouth, one ginger and one tortie, both still attached by the umbilical cord.
Clearly, the cat trusted Rizwan enough to feel safe bringing her newborns to his doorstep.
In his YouTube video, Rizwan recounted the moment, saying:
“I could tell by the way she looked at me that she really needed my help, so I knew I had to move fast.”
He gently picked up the kittens and brought them inside, where he carefully separated them from their umbilical cord.
The mother cat watched peacefully, assured that her babies were in safe hands.
After Rizwan finished, he placed the kittens next to their mother, who affectionately began to cuddle them.
Surprisingly, she soon got up and left, leaving Rizwan bewildered. He had planned to foster the tiny family and couldn’t understand why she had suddenly left.
However, a short time later, she returned, carrying another furry surprise in her mouth.
Wait… There Are More Kittens?
Rizwan soon realized the mom went to fetch her third child – a tiny white kitten.
He carefully placed the new arrival next to its siblings, and the mother closely monitored every move to ensure he handled her third baby as gently as the first two.
Once reassured of her baby’s safety, she briefly left again, only to return moments later with yet another kitten.
The mother continued this pattern until she had brought all her babies to Rizwan’s house.
Once the family was reunited, she finally relaxed, confident in the knowledge that her kittens were in the safe hands of someone she trusted.
Rizwan, moved by his new feline friend’s trust, fed her some delicious food and helped her care for the kittens.
Before settling them into their new home, he took the entire family to the vet to ensure they were all in good health.
Trouble In Paradise
After the vet confirmed that the mother cat and her six kittens were in excellent health, it was time for Rizwan to take them to their new home where their lives would truly begin.
However, his plan didn’t go as smoothly as he originally planned.
Since Rizwan was a proud foster dad of several once-stray felines, the cat overpopulation in his home overwhelmed the mom cat who stopped feeding her kittens.
Upon arrival, the mother cat began exploring the house, restlessly searching for a quiet and secluded spot to nestle with her family.
Complicating matters, one of the resident cats, Jasmine, did not take kindly to the newcomers.
She hissed at the mother, and their confrontations escalated, further unsettling the mother and affecting her care for her kittens.
Worried, Rizwan separated Jasmine to another room to prevent a furry crisis from occurring.
On a more positive note, another resident cat, Luna, was completely in love with the kittens.
She approached them immediately, sniffed them, and began grooming them as if they were her own.
Witnessing this, the mother cat, perhaps feeling a twinge of jealousy, returned to her kittens and resumed feeding them.
Rizwan was relieved to see his new feline friend finally settling in and feeling secure in her new environment.
Happily Ever After
Before the mother cat felt fully at ease in her new home, Rizwan and his team had to bottle-feed her kittens to ensure their survival.
Now that she has overcome her initial distress, she is ready to provide the care her kittens need to grow up big, happy, and strong.
With the little furry family reunited, all that’s left is to wish them all the best and to wish Rizwan much luck and happiness as he continues to rescue strays in need.
