‘She would put me on babysitting duty a lot’: Stray momma cat keeps bringing her kittens to this kind human, asking for some much-needed co-parenting help

Being a cat momma is a hard job, that is a fact. Think of how hard it is to raise one human at a time and then think about how cat mommas have to raise whole litters of babies at once. It’s rough. There is a lot that you have to teach your kittens. You have to teach kittens how to drink from a bowl without getting water up their noses, for example. You have to teach kittens how to communicate with their future humans so that they can give us the orders that we’re supposed to follow. 

Really, it’s not surprising that some cat mommas get overwhelmed sometimes. And it’s even less surprising that some cat mommas ask humans to help… to babysit. They need a break every once in a while too. And for you, the human that was chosen to babysit, that is a very big and impurrtant responsibility that they are bestowing upon you. So, you have to take it seriously, just like the person in today’s story did.
