Yeah, I was going to say, I think it’s less of an introduction and more, “let’s put all of the babies together so we can share the responsibility of keeping an eye on them all.”

Those hormones are so raging that if a mama cat could lift a human baby, they'd spirit away with it to join their litter.

u/boredvamper 2d ago
That's where you are wrong. Her motherly instincts are so strong that she starts training her young right out of the gate. She bought the kitten into a vicinity of an easy meal. :)

Could just be stomach training the baby. We do it all the time here in Sweden but for short intervals. It helps the baby train their necks and eventually start crawling.

She wants the person filming to look after her kitten. Female cats will take turns babysitting all the kittens while those not “on shift” can go hunt and do cat shit.

Yes. I saw a documentary where the scientists were using brain scans of cats to recreate what the cat was seeing. They showed a human go in front of this cat and the image that showed up on the computer screen was a human with cat features added on. So cats just see their humans as part of their people. Literally.

My SO's cat doesn't have kittens, but she does have a favorite stuffed toy we call Puppy. It's been with her since ~she was the kitten.
When the family goes up into their rooms and she's left downstairs, she'll always come meowing upstairs bringing Puppy with her. Either into someone's room or until someone comes out to notice her meowing. The same thing will happen when they're all downstairs and she's upstairs with Puppy.
Definitely the same behavior. She wants someone to look after Puppy.

My cat’s mom clocked that the daddy cat was much more interested in the new kittens than she was, so when he’d come to check in on them, she’d nope out of there to eat, take a bath and nap for hours while he patiently kept eyes. She’d come back when they got hungry and started mewing

In a cozy corner, by the firelight's gleam, A cat named Whiskers had a cunning scheme. With her tiny kitten, just a ball of fur, She set off on a mission, quite the connoisseur.
To her master's side, she quietly crept, With her little one, she silently leapt. Into the nursery, she ventured with grace, To introduce her kitten to a tiny, rosy face.
The baby gurgled, the kitten purred, Two worlds collided, absurdly stirred. Innocence met innocence, pure and bright, As whiskers and dimples shared the night.
With a flick of her tail, Whiskers declared, "This is your friend, be gentle, be paired." The baby's laughter, the kitten's mew, A friendship was born, pure and true.
So, in this tale of furry delight, A cat and her kitten, both took flight. With a baby and love, they made a sweet crew, In the heart of their home, where dreams came true.

Someone covered this behavior in another subreddit. Mother cats (and dogs or and animal that might have to hunt) will bring their kittens to wherever the other newborns are because they need to hunt or sleep. She is quite literally asking, “Will you look after my young while I find rest or food?” Obviously the child’s mother is not far from the baby.
Momma kitty just needs rest….

On July 1st, a highly unpopular change to Reddit's API pricing went into effect. Most third-party apps have shut down and so have many tools relied upon by moderators and projects for making Reddit more accessible to visually impaired users.
Beyond the disastrous AMA by the CEO, Reddit's response has been limited to promises that this change will not affect moderation tools (it has) and promises of new and more-accessible first-party moderation tools. Promises just like ones they have made in response to past protests, but have consistently failed to fulfill.
If you want to express your strong disagreement with the API pricing change or with Reddit's response to the backlash, you may want to consider the following options:
