In addition to competition, do stray cats have other emotions? Of course there is, such as maternal love. I have seen too many stories of cat mothers actively begging humans for food for their children, and even giving kittens to humans.
I never thought that there would be reciprocal feeding between cats. A hungry stray cat would give up the food that was about to reach his mouth for the sake of his mother cat.
The little stray cat who refuses to eat and gives food to its mother
Uncle Luo is usually a cat lover. He often feeds stray cats nearby, and also takes familiar stray cats home, takes them to be neutered and looks for adopters.
That day, as usual, the uncle drove to various cat feeding spots to feed the cats. Suddenly he found a little stray cat that he had never seen before on the roadside. It looked like it was only two or three months old.
After seeing the stranger approaching it, the kitten looked frightened and fled into the grass in a panic.
Worried that the kitten was hungry, the uncle took clean water and cat food from the car and placed them on the roadside. Then he returned to the car and quietly observed the kitten, waiting for the kitten to appear.
It was probably the aroma of the can that attracted the hungry cat. It cautiously emerged from the grass and tiptoed close to the rice bowl.
I thought that the cat would happily eat the hard-earned food. Unexpectedly, the little guy just sniffed it gently with his nose and turned around and left. During
, the kitten looked back many times and seemed very reluctant to give up. It seemed that the cat was very eager for food. In this case, why would the cat give up this delicious food that is easily available?
The uncle guessed that the kitten might have chosen to leave because it was afraid of humans, and might come back soon. Therefore, he did not take away the cat food, and started the car to drive home. When he was about to leave, a familiar figure came into view. The kitten came back, and behind it, there was another cat. Judging from the shape and color, it must be the mother cat!
Little stray cat: Mom, do you think I am awesome? Found so many goodies.
It turns out that the kitten doesn’t eat cat food because it is always thinking about its mother cat and wants to share this hard-won delicacy with her mother.
When the mother cat is around, the kitten feels at ease and eats the cat food without restraint. On the contrary, the mother cat is always vigilant and looks around while eating. After devouring a few mouthfuls, it simply stops eating and stays by the kitten's side, watching it fill its stomach.
The next day, the kitten brought the father cat.
The next day, the uncle placed food near the place where the little stray cats were fed yesterday, and waited in the car for a while. The two cats arrived as scheduled.
The mother cat is obviously much more relaxed than yesterday, and begins to eat with the kitten, but her eyes will look behind her from time to time, as if she is waiting for something.
A figure walked slowly from a distance, and there was another cat. Looking at the pattern and color, it looked like it was carved out of the same mold as the kitten. It was obviously the father cat.
The father cat was so greedy that he licked his tongue. Even though he was very hungry and wanted to eat, the father cat still stayed by the mother cat and the kittens. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore, so he joined them and feasted together.
A whole plate of canned cats was eaten cleanly, but when the uncle approached this family of cats, they ran away vigilantly.
The uncle understands that it is very difficult to gain the trust of these cats. It is the rainy season now, and he is worried that the cats will be wetted by the rain. The uncle went home and used wooden boards to make a cat nest that can be protected from wind and rain.
The day after the cat feeding point was established, the mother cat came to the door with her kittens. The sense of smell and perception of cats are indeed very powerful. After the uncle gets familiar with the three stray cats, he will take them home, neuter them and find their owners. I hope the uncle will collect these three cats as soon as possible.
The little stray cat is only two months old and cannot eat enough every day. When it comes to food, it does not think of it alone, but of its own mother. All things have spirits. Cats also have touching emotions, such as maternal love, friendship, and family affection. I hope everyone can treat every small animal with affection and justice.
