I wish they could be babies for 2 or 3 years and live at least twice as long as they do. Earl just knows what he likes, he's my kind of kitten, I always like the ones with big personality. My youngest always wants food. I've had fun since he was about 6 weeks old, he's been well fed, but he acts like he was hungry at one point in is life. He's my little Hobbit.

I was a neonatal rescue mom and I had a litter of 5 I got at about a week old. Every 3 to 4 hrs I was up feeding them Since it was cold I always wore a nubby fuzzy sweater. I noticed that when I started weaning them several took to sucking on my sweater. I confess, I found this adorable & let them do it, figuring they would grow out of it once they found "big boy food" well 4 did, but the one continued sucking. I decided to keep her since i had just lost my beloved boy several months earlier. I named her Tazzy , short for Tasmania (guess why?) She continued sucking on me and if i offered her a bottle she refused it & went back to my sweater. Well Tazzy is a year and a half now, still sucking on my sweater at night when we go to bed. I continued rescue and she helped with the new babies, licking them & cuddling. Such a big help. Much better than a stuffed toy. One of the new babies (the runt) wasn't keeping pace with the rest of them so i decided she needed a little more time before adoption. Ii let her sleep with Tazzy & me at bedtime and wouldn't you know it ANOTHER SWEATER SUCKER!! Well i decided to keep her too. She is about 8 mos.old now & still sucking on my sweater. One day when i was at Walmart I saw a nubby blanket almost like my sweater. Of course I bought it for my girls. They love it! So every night I go to sleep to the sound of purring and sucking & making biscuits. I used to have insomnia really bad, but listening to the duo of purring lulls me right to sleep. I refer to my purchase as the Mommy blanket lol!! Now we're all happy Just wondering how old they will be before they stop. Never I hope, my sleep depends on it Love your little man They are all adorable. 😻

She noticed the big hutch I have in my dining room and that became her perch. She kept getting up there, I kept getting her down. I was exhausted so decided if she could get up there she could get down, and she does, no problem. I put a little bed up there for her and she sits up there most of the day, looking down on us as the peasants we are. There is never a dull moment with her and we are so happy we have her.

[@KenjiMapes]

@@HaunaMyKiki Oh totally I had a black domestic short hair named Chip & a mixed color Norwegian Forest Cat (white/gray/tan) named Calvin who were incredibly sweet & affectionate. My Ex-GF Said they’d be waiting at the door for me to come home from work & they were my little thermal blankets at night. I lost them both last year after 16 & 13 years respectively & it really floored me. They were naughty at times & they knew they were cute. I miss them so much. I haven’t adopted new furry pals yet as I am still grieving but thinking about them just warms my heart even their naughty incidents. One of my first lessons as a nee Cat Dad was not leaving treat bags outside of a cupboard. I came home one day & found the treat bags knocked off the top of the refrigerator & they were completely shredded & emptied. I know Chip the Ninja Cat knocked it down to his waiting brother at the bottom where they had a treat party. Cats & dogs are incredible furry pals & one of the greatest gifts that you can bestow upon yourself or your family. What’s better than a wet nose, fuzzy face & wagging tail at the end of a stressful & tough day? 🐱 + 🐶 RULE! By the way, since my first cat Chip was a black kitty, I have a soft spot for black kitties even though I adore all cats but also think gray cats are super cool. I think those who adopt special needs cats are amazing too. Some animals might have special needs like the Misfit Toys, but they will love you just as much. Thank you to all the amazing pet parents out there providing loving forever homes & lots of kudos & thanks to all the amazing people out there working with & advocating for cats & dogs a you all rock!

Omg, what a relief to see someone bottle feeding a kitten horizontally and not up like a human baby… great job! I can tell that you know what you’re doing! :D

[@ponggaaa4854]

I don't have cats, but why can't you feed them horizontally? Something about not going down properly?

[@VelvetCorgi]

@@ponggaaa4854 The proper way to bottle feed a kitten is with the kitten lying down or being horizontal. This is because when kittens naturally drink milk from the queen (mother cat) they are lying on their bellies. Human babies drink milk upright, cradled to the mother’s chest. Many people mean well and bottle feed kittens the way that seems natural to them, which is upright like a human baby. The problem is that this bends the kitten’s neck in an unnatural way, increasing the risk of choking or breathing the milk in. Most of the time it turns out fine, but it is a common misunderstanding made by people, especially if they are inexperienced with neonatal kitten care. I want to emphasize: doing this does NOT mean that you are being negligent or abusing the baby, just that there are better techniques out there for bottle feeding kittens. Hope that explanation helps! 😃

They want to be held and feel warmth and loved. It’s the nursing that he wants! Not the bottle itself so to speak. hold him and give him a bottle! There’s still babies so beautiful. i’m so happy to see them being loved and cared for 😻😻😻❤️💖💕

[@barbarahopper3813]

What a cutie Earl is. Hey must have found so sense of security in the bottle. He's so cute I'd end up bottle feeding him until he was a senior

[@dede4004]

True, there's really nothing wrong with it. If the bottle gave him more of a sense of security, I think it would be worth it. Too often, we try to force animals AND children to grow up faster than they might be ready for. Some need a little more time to stay "baby". IT'S just something in them. And, then when they're grown, we wish as COULD see that "little one" again. We're always in too much of a hurry, I think. But, then again, maybe that's just me.......

[@bethanysandburg1623]

My grandma told me about a kitten she had as a girl that she bottle feed every day and just never stopped. It just became a treat and bonding time for them

@UCIcyiln1Ex6WU96AXX2vtCQ What they do is reply to a bunch of female users on these videos with either the exact same message or generic greetings. Like in this case he's replied to 12 in total, but I've seen some of them respond to 30+ on one video, then do it again later that day if The Dodo uploads again. Then if people respond to them they'll follow pretty much the same pattern of messages, and at some point they'll ask for the user to contact them on something like WhatsApp. After that I don't know the exact details, but I've seen others say they did contact them and it's complete different people offering something or trying to pawn something off on them.
