"Cats can never be tamed! They have no feelings for people!"
"Cats don't remember their owners' kindness; they forget feelings just like that!"
"Cats are just another kind of cold-blooded animal..."
Shut up!!! Who says cats don't understand feelings? Who says cats don't know gratitude? Do you really understand cats? Have you ever really learned about them? Today, I'm going to use the story of two mother cats to refute the "heartless" theory about cats!
In the dead of night, while the nearby residents were asleep in their homes, they were suddenly awakened by a fierce bark from a dog and a pitiful cry from a cat. Many residents sighed, assuming it was just stray cats and dogs fighting, and no one paid any attention.
The next day, an elderly woman who regularly fed stray cats went to feed a litter of kittens that had recently been wiped out, as usual. However, when she arrived, the mother cat and her kittens were nowhere to be found. There were traces of blood on the ground. Seeing this scene, the woman felt a chill run down her spine. Had something happened to the family?
Residents witnessed the horrific scene captured by CCTV cameras last night. A stray dog, out foraging for food in the middle of the night, discovered a litter of kittens and prepared to attack them. At that moment, the mother cat rushed out and fought the stray dog! In protecting her kittens, the mother cat was bitten on the spine during the fight. Finally, the stray dog, scratched and frightened by the mother's attack, fled.
This battle can be described as a lose-lose situation...
A stray mother cat with a broken spine desperately protected her kittens, then silently awaited death after confirming their safety...
The kittens were all safe and sound under their mother's protection, but after this battle, the mother cat seemed uneasy about her current living environment. Despite her injuries, she moved the kittens one by one to a nearby mountain overnight, to a place where miscellaneous items were piled up. Perhaps the mother cat felt that this place was secluded enough to protect her children.
In the following days, the mother cat's condition gradually worsened. Her hind limbs were completely paralyzed, and she could only drag herself forward slowly by her hind limbs.
The woman, who usually feeds stray cats, was very worried about the safety of this cat and its kittens, so she contacted a local animal rescue organization to help her find them. After a day, the woman and the rescuers finally found the kittens, but the mother cat was nowhere to be seen. Everyone began to feel uneasy, and even a terrible thought crossed their minds... Had something happened to the mother cat...?
The rescuers didn't rush to move the kittens, but quietly observed them nearby. Around midnight, the mother cat finally appeared! She gazed at her kittens silently for a long time, then turned and disappeared into the darkness...
Everyone was puzzled as to why the mother cat turned and left after looking at her kittens.
After the rescuers showed the video of the rescue of the kittens to animal experts, the experts gave the following explanation: The mother cat was already very badly injured, so badly that she thought she would die soon. So, before she died, she did her best to move her kittens to what she thought was the safest place, and then came back to see them one last time!
After seeing her kittens, what will the mother cat do? "She will find a secluded spot and quietly await her death..."
Everyone was deeply saddened by the news. They marveled at the mother cat's strength and resilience, and decided to rescue her, embark on a search, and treat her injuries.
When the mother cat was brought to the hospital, the bite wound on her back had completely festered. After examination, the doctor said that the mother cat's spinal nerves had been damaged, which was why she was paralyzed in her hind limbs. Only immediate surgery could save her!
After the surgery, the mother cat survived. The woman who had previously fed stray cats decided to adopt the "family" and would take good care of the mother cat and her kittens, saying she was deeply moved by the cat's maternal love.
A similar incident occurred elsewhere. A car owner was recently quite frustrated because a cat named "K" had been occupying his car for a whole month!
The car owner, in desperation, called in an automotive engineer, hoping the engineer could help move his beloved car. However, after the engineer arrived and inspected the vehicle, he said that starting the car would definitely harm the cat.
So the car owner had to think of other ways, such as using food as bait! The owner took out cat food and various delicacies, and even grilled fish in front of the cat, but... the food bait failed! The cat didn't budge at all!
One day, the car owner, as usual, put out cat food for his cat. Afterwards, he went back upstairs to check on the cat, and that's when he discovered that K was also with a kitten! After the kitten finished eating the cat food the car owner had put out, it crawled back under the car, while K was secretly protecting the kitten not far away.
Occasionally, other stray cats would pass by, and K would immediately stand up and issue a warning. The car owner was touched by K and felt that K was a good mother, so he made an important decision to adopt K!
The car owner was curious as to why K was so wary. A neighbor told him the answer: K originally had two children, but now she only has one kitten by her side because the other one was cruelly tortured and killed by bad people. So, facing her only remaining child, K always keeps it close by, fearing that something might happen again.
Therefore, K chose to stay under the car because he felt that few people would bother him there, and thought it would be a safe place to stay.
Having decided to adopt K, everyone gradually began the "trapping" process. Catching K went more smoothly than expected. The car owner took K and the kitten to a veterinary hospital for a checkup. "The kitten was very well protected by its mother, and all its indicators were normal; it's a healthy kitten!"
The kitten's checkup report showed everything was normal, but further testing revealed that K had a very serious case of cystitis. Cystitis is actually a relatively common disease in male cats, while it's very rare in female cats. So, what caused K to develop cystitis?
The reason K stayed by the kitten's side constantly was because she was afraid something might happen to her only kitten. She didn't even dare to go to the toilet, fearing that if she turned around to go, she wouldn't see her kitten when she came back. Holding her urine for so long naturally led to her developing cystitis.
The greatness of maternal love transcends species. Whether human or animal, mothers are willing to sacrifice themselves and risk their lives to protect their children. When a child's safety is threatened, a mother's latent strength is immense, all stemming from the greatness of maternal love. This love is innate and deserves our respect!
Finally, a friendly reminder: the weather is getting colder lately, and many stray cats and dogs like to hide under cars to escape the cold. If you own a car, please tap on the hood or honk the horn before starting your vehicle to check for stray cats or dogs underneath. They'll usually run away when they hear you honking or tapping on the hood. This small action of yours could save a lovely life!
