@r.bardis312 would never have described himself as a cat person. That is until he began to feed a cat in his neighborhood. Before he knew it, he was a cat dad. When he started feeding the cat, she started to come back every night, and even during the day when he wasn’t home. Eventually, he decided to let her inside and he made a vet appointment. There, he learned that she was 10 months old, a female, healthy, and the biggest surprise of them all, she was pregnant!

Just a few weeks later, she gave birth to a healthy litter of four kittens. The TikTok has gotten over 1.3 million views and it’s safe to say that people are in love with the kittens!

“For everyone who is ‘not a cat person’,” he said, “take it from me… they’re dope!”

Each year, more than 2.7 million animals are euthanized in shelters every year in the United States because they are not adopted into loving homes. Throughout their lifetimes, an unaltered pair of cats and their offspring can produce hundreds of thousands of cats. That’s a staggering number. TNR programs can help to control feral cat populations, and ensure that feral kittens don’t end up in shelters as “strays.”

We are sure that this mama cat is grateful that she and her kittens were saved and are now living in a loving home!
