Sir, I found a cat I think it's 10 days old nd she is finding her mother but we don't know who is her mother what should we do now?? We are trying to feed her but she is not drinking the milk…what should we do now???
For those who have a cat(s) go now and pet and kiss your cat.
Patience & caring is all he needed ty for giving him that 🤍🤍 that is all any life scared needs. So great he didnt let that terrible separation situation hold him back. 👏🤩
Dirty cat dumpers are just as bad as dirty dog dumpers. These kinds of people get no compassion from me.
What kind of cretin would give away their pet just because they're moving house?
I have no blame to place on anyone. Gerald's owner did the right thing giving him up to a shelter or what ever. He wasn't put out in the street. I'm very happy Gerald has a new family. I wish Gerald and his new family, peace, health and love.
I love black cats 😍🥰
My boy does this when he wants me to pick him up. Then he purrs and drools on me.
My baby girl who passed away a little over two months ago would jump up on the couch next to me and tap me with one claw and she would do it until I have her attention. Sometimes it hurt a little and was a little annoying at times. I would give ANYTHING to feel that annoying little claw poking at me just one more time 🥹
My black cat, Lucifer, is so much like him they must be twins. Luci is also an attention lover. He does the toe-bean tap exactly the same, and with the same yearning look on his face. When I pet him he headbutts my chin. He and his sister kept me sane during Covid isolation.
Too bad the owner failed to provide a forever home, but at least they brought him to a shelter. 🙏🏻
I just started crying when she said the owner moved away. Also because he looks exactly like my black cat. Animals for you are a small part of your world but for the cat you are their entire world. My cat is my everything. We snuggle up on the couch together, i get headbumps when I get home, she follows me to the toilet, she walks under the shower and doesn’t mind getting wet because of it. She’s my friend. I can’t think of the day she’s gonna leave this world and there’s no single cell in my body that thinks of leaving her behind would I move places.
Why would they get a cat if they were not committed? They wouldn't have dumped their kid to the shelter, would they?
Glad Ger Bear found a good home, well done👍
Bless ❤️
Love this❤
😂😂😂😂😂❤Great story! 😂😂😂
Oh yeah. "The gimme attention!" grab. Pretty universal cat vocabulary, I dare say.
What a beautiful story (and a beautiful kitty)! My senior kitty does the toe bean taps as well. I have a small home, and my computer is in my cramped bedroom. When I sit at my computer desk, my bed is to my back and my chair sometimes touches it. When he feels I've spent too much time on the computer, Leo will come into the bedroom, jump on the bed, walk over and gently pat me on my shoulder until I turn around and give him chin scratches, head rubs and the occasional belly rub. It's adorable!
I absolutely can't work in an animal shelter. I would probably bring all the animals home with me
What a nice person she seems
Cats are such vulnerable but also such adorable animals, im glad rhis little master found a happy home ✌️❤️🇭🇲
Sweet boy❤😻
❤
You did make a difference in that cats life, you let him let his guard down and open up. Absolutely lovely
My Hankster the cat does that. I have to sit on my hands because he won’t stop. Then that lasts 3 seconds and I’m petting him.
This kitty is a joy to watch! I love black Cats.
what a silly little man.
“Um yes I’m here I require attention”
He Looks like my cat kitten
Luck cat 🐈
Aww, that cat has almost the exact same coloration as my favorite (but now dead) kitty; she was all black but had a few white strands on her chest.
My littlest (tuxedo) kitty works in much the same way. I watched a video and saw someone else's cat regularly pawing their owner and getting head-pats in return, so when she lay down next to me and started wiggling herself closer and closer until she was pawing my leg, I decided to let her "train" me into petting her every time she pawed me. At first, I was getting careful love-taps from all sides, most especially my pajama pants (which are satin, so they have pock-marks all over). Nowadays, she will saunter up, make eye contact, give a big stretch, and reach her kitty paws out to my leg to knead it like a scratching post, forcing me to reach down, pat her head, and give her a massage before I lose too many leg hairs.
My middle cat does something completely different. If she wants my attention, she'll stand in front of me on her tippy-toes while leaning against my bed and raise one of her paws up as high as she can reach, stretching her fingers out while meowing. It's hard not to notice and give her my full attention, especially since she has the feline decency to understand some English words while making up a meowing language that I can easily understand as well (like "Let's play!" "I'm hungry!" "Go to sleep!" "I wanna go outside!" "Leave me alone!" and "Give me cuddles!"). Necessity is the mother of invention.
I don't know know how she did it😮 … saying goodbye…. I'd lose my mind if i had to say goodbye to an animal i told "i love you"
One of my two kitties boops me when she wants something, because she cant meow. So when I'm lying down if she wants something she sits near my head and gently bops my nose with her paw. Its so cute
Cats…if you will love them, they will return that love 10x. Like giving their lives to you, no matter their color.
Special boy for sure.
I will never understand why people get pets and just give them up like there not family at that point. It's like cutting off an arm to Me. My pets are my family!
Cute kitty
Toe bean tap is so cute
My cats do that, too! My Siamese will wait till I’m s(h)itting on the toilet, and then prop herself up, and lightly tap my face to get attention.
Poor sweet baby. So adorable.
Please change the click-bait title from the alarming/false “claw” to “toe-bean tap.”
Voids are the best.
❤🙏💗🙏🥰💕
My cat is like this one in color, especially with the white tuff. She'll do a toe bean dance. 🙂
poor gerbear. i love his toof. he's such a sweetie. i had a cat that would get up on his hind legs when i was on the computer, hook a single claw into my shirt and tug when he wanted food or attention.
