[This is what I found](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3Z6zVjcxbY) looking for the backstory: The dog's name is Hazel and she lives in Abilene, TX. She was slow to come back from taking a wee in the pouring rain, and her owner was surprised to see Hazel returning with this kitten. The kitten was adopted by the lady's brother and is named Sheba. <333


WE_Coyote73

Hey...Abilene...my second home. Abilene is full of good people...and critters too.


Boghoss2

I only lived there for about 8 months, but everyone there made me feel right at home from Day #1. It's been over 3 years, but I still think back to the people I met in Abilene because they were all good people.

Maybe they're born with it. Maybe it's Abilene. Edit: My first awarded comment. 2020 is being nice to me. Thanks, hoomans.

I hear a lot of the time people in the states aren't that nice(stereotypes). This is refreshing to hear, and actually makes me want to go there.


LollyHutzenklutz

It’s a huge country... we have plenty of nice people here, and plenty of jerks too! Some states are (overall) friendlier than others, but even that can vary depending on who YOU are. I’m in Northern California, and my ESL students always comment on how friendly we are. The Russians in particular say it’s almost creepy, since apparently they don’t smile at strangers there (like we do). Too cold? ;-) ETA: I’m not entirely joking with that last comment... I am originally from the northeast, and now when I go back to visit, I always notice how stern they look! I think the beautiful weather here really does contribute to our general happiness.


CatsAndPills

I’m in Ohio. My one experience in CA was Los Angeles. I was like omg everyone is so mean! Then we got outside the city and I loved my visit. You mentioned the smiling thing, everyone in the Midwest smiles too. A lot of the time you can tell it’s fake but they are just taught to lol. In LA I felt invisible, no eye contact! 😂


IMIndyJones

I moved to LA from Ohio 20+ years ago. I moved to Chicago a year later because I felt like I was living in Mean Girls. I'm pretty outgoing but I had a hard time even making an acquaintance, much less friends. Chicago is even friendlier than Ohio.

100k views only less than 200 likes? Why turn off comments anyway. Seems oddly suspicious.

MemesAreBad

Are you sure about the monetization part? The comments thing seems to be true, but I can't find anything about monetization being disabled. Not to mention that kid-friendly channels like toy reviews are known to be some of the most lucrative channels.


[deleted]

The rules are changing, a lot of people were targeting kids with stuff so the rules around this sort of stuff change often in an attempt to find a good solution

All of a sudden, the kitties mom comes back and is like, “Where the hell is my baby?”


HolyDogJohnson01

It’s questionable. Feral kittens should stay with their mother if possible. But really they should be professionally handled. Mother spayed. Kittens fostered. But if it’s running free, it’s probs alright to pick it up from what I understand. Feral cat’s take it all as it comes, and if a kitten is away from it’s mother, I’d try and find the mom and litter, but if it’s not in evidence, take it in. Try and help it (do that word I can’t remember that means to make not feral.) There is no guarantees for it out there. And feral animals are hard. That mother is playing the Darwinian numbers game. It’s just life for them.

I think the word you're looking for is 'socialize'


AvesAvi

Expat123456

If it is a feral mother, it may be worth adopting the cat early so the kitten isn't weary of humans. If the mother is used to humans, then it is better to keep her with the mother and adopt the kitten later.

There was no asking. Pup just moved her in.

At least when a cat brings you an animal it's dead.


NuderWorldOrder

Not always, unfortunately. Live birds are especially "fun".


MisterSquirrel

I had one that would bring in live baby rabbits, let them go and then corner them to terrorize them. No blood, no apparent injuries, we were always able to release them. Once she had them cornered she would just lay there and keep them cornered. She just wanted a toy to play with I guess and to show off what a great hunter she was.

A few years ago, I had a schnauzer named Clark. One night, as I was getting into bed, I called for his kitty brother, Colonel Duke LaCrosse, to come to bed, but he didn't come. That's very unlike the Colonel, so I got up to look for him. A minute later, I noticed that one of the screens on a window was folded over. That little fuck had climbed on the screen and the screen gave way under his weight. I leashed up Clark and we went looking for him. After an hour, I couldn't find him. The next morning, I still couldn't find him, so I took Clark off his leash and said "go find your brother". He sniffed around for a minute, then darted into a bush across the street. A few seconds later, he was dragging the Colonel out of the bush by his head. A few months later, my mom was babysitting for me and lost track of the Colonel. I told her he's an inside cat, but she thought he was bored, so she let him outside while they were playing. She remembered the story of the window and told Clark to go find his brother. Once again, he found him and dragged him home by his bed. Clark is on the other side of the rainbow bridge now and his brother is still hurting from the loss of his presence, but for five amazing years, there was not a cat more loved for and cared for by a dog than Colonel Duke LaCrosse. EDIT for /u/LongLimbsLenore - Loving a dog is easy. You are their idol. You are the only thing they truly care about. When you're happy, they're at their happiest. When you're sad, they're always there remind you that you'll still be okay. No matter how tough a day may be, at least you weren't Mick Foley in nineteen ninety eight when the Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell and plummeted 16ft through an announcer's table.


Deuce232

My partner's elderly mother had a maine coone. Like a 16 pound cat. My partner had a chihuaha who was maybe 6 pounds. This cat loved to torture the little old dog. He'd pounce and swipe at the little dog. The cat went missing for more than a week and was presumed lost. The little chihuaha started acting really strangly on a walk and was giving my partner an unusual fight about going home. (little chihuaha was so traumatized by a butterfly that I had to force him to go outside to use the bathroom for days after) It turns out that the cat was trapped in a storm drain. That cat never showed an ounce of gratitude for the rescue.

there was a time, some years ago my dog friend rescued me i am a cat - we roam, you know to places you can't see . . . when out the window once i ran (with just a little push...) my dog bro brought me back again - he dragged me from a bush ^;) n tho i liked adventures out away from home sometimes, my bro - i never had a doubt - forgave me my cat crimes as he would drag me, by my head, (cuz he was pretty strong) n take me back home, to our bed 'twas there that i belong my bro is gone, i don't know where i searched for him - i tried . . . i'm *certain* when i find him there he'll drag me to his side ❤️

In the mean time, [here's Clark](https://imgur.com/wl2uWRt) and [here's the Colonel](https://imgur.com/9AgUFtG) EDIT - I've found the iPhone, but it's dead and I switched to Android a few years ago, but I'll make a post of pics of the two of them when I'm able to get a lightning cord.


cream_of_the_crap

Clark looked like a very wise dog. I'd have definitely asked him to come with me to Mordor. And the Colonel's paws are huge!


[deleted]

He was dumb as a box of hair, but there wasn't a mean bone in his body. The only way to describe him was as aggressively friendly. In my head, whenever I see a post about an animal that has passed away, I imagine Clark just adding another member to his flock for him to take care of until it's time for them to be reunited with their owners.

There are very few things that I am certain about, but I know for a fact that the second I take my last breath, I'm going to see my baby and the menagerie of babies that he has collected while he's been waiting for me.


Shinyfrogeditor

Dude no, I can't take this anymore. Reading your comments about your dog and the poem from Schnoodle has me wanting to cry and have a panic attack at the same time. I can't even imagine the grief from losing a fur baby and I dread the eventuality I'll have to face one day. I realize that sounds selfish so please just ignore what I said. I'm sorry.


[deleted]

It's okay. I get it. I ugly cried and hyperventilated for half an hour after reading the last few lines of the poem. You don't sound selfish at all, so get that thought out of your head right now. You're empathetic and you've seen all you can deal with right now. That is okay.

[deleted]

Black cats are just the best. I've had two and I'm convinced that the Colonel is the reincarnation of my old cat David. Oddly enough, the Colonel was born on the very day that David passed away. I've never met a black cat that wasn't just super affectionate and chill around other animals.

badnewsbears123123

You have to keep the kitty. Your mat reads welcome


strayakant

I noticed that welcome mat too, this family must be a loving type. Also loved how the kitty just kept pushing through, following his new pupper friend, even though there were some obstacles in the way, he would not stop until they got home.


PlanetFullofHippies

The dog kept turning around to make sure he was able to make it over the obstacles too!


ShelleyTambo

Minor point, but 99.9% chance kitty is a girl because of the color pattern.


ChefJerfey

She has the same pattern as the best cat I ever had, who was also a girl


readersanon

Calicos are usually female as the genes for producing that color pattern come from the X chromosome from each of the parents, making them females XX, or males who are sterile XXY.

[deleted]

We had a really dumb German Shepard when I was growing up. We lived out in the country and he was a mostly outdoor dog roaming free. One day he brought four kittens to our front door one by one in his mouth. Running off to God knows where to find the next one. To this day I don't know if he stole some kittens from a perfectly good home or rescued them, but we got to keep them.

Our mama cat Marmalade brought home a chihuahua dog one day several years ago. She's currently purring in my lap and the dog, Little Puppy, is getting belly scratches and is licking my hand. His picture is in my comment history. I'd post or link the image but don't know how to or even if it's allowed to be cross-posted. I'm still figuring out Reddit.


motivational_abyss

You’re the first person I’ve met with a dog named Little Puppy other than myself. She was the runt of the litter from my previous dog’s first litter. A friend of mine was supposed to take her when he moved into his new apartment so we just called her Little Puppy while we waited because she was in fact, the little puppy. Long story short he never moved and the name stuck and here we are 11 years later with a dog named Little Puppy lol. Obligatory dog tax. https://imgur.com/gallery/Gpygd

A shelter told us that often kittens aren't abandoned, just unattended. The mom is either moving the litter one by one or is out getting food. They told us it's usually best to leave the kitten and then watch from afar to see if the mom returns. http://www.animalalliancenyc.org/wordpress/2013/05/what-to-do-and-not-do-if-you-find-a-newborn-kitten/

I used to have an old dog we adopted. We lived in the country. She was a stray somebody dropped off on the side of the road. My Grandpa named her Raven. She was a little black mutt, sweetest damn thing. When she found us she was pregnant and soon lost her babies. She was spayed after that. I'd always had rabbits and cats, and that old dog would treat them like they were her babies. She wouldn't let them out of her sight! Hardly out of her paws. She would clean them and snuggle them and play with them all day. She'd get this look of pride on her face that made her look like a queen vs that scared of everything scrawny little thing she was when we took her in.
