A stray cat showed up at a woman’s house in Chicago with a full litter of kittens, and internet users believe she did so because she knew she would get help.
In a viral TikTok video shared in August by @kk.katakata, the cat mom can be seen sitting by the poster’s porch, staring at her after leaving all of her newborn kittens behind the door, as if asking for help raising them.
The poster says in the video that, while coming back home during a rainy day, she found the kittens, which at the time were only about 2 to 3 days old, lying on the “dirty rug” behind her front door, with their eyes still closed from birth. The poster immediately understood what was going on and brought them all indoors so she could keep them safe and warm.
“Neighborhood cat bought us all her babies,” reads a caption shared with the viral post. Newsweek reached out to @kk.katakata for comment via TikTok comments. We could not verify the details of the case.
