little kitten mews šŸ„° They grow out of those way too fast.


bootycakes420

Unless they stay forever baby! I have one almost a year old that stayed itty bitty with little mews and I would die for her


GTA6_1

Mine is almost a year and she's 6.5lbs and never meows. We got her as a stray with no mom present at around 4-5 weeks, so she may not have ever heard a cat meow. She's been a spoiled princess her entire life so why grow up now right?


token_internet_girl

I had a massive 20lb maine coon cat named Meatwad who did not meow until he was almost 2 years old. He was only prompted into meowing at all when we did a cross country move, where he promptly started howling in the car every day because he hated it so much. The move was pretty traumatizing for him and he spent about another week howling under the bed. Somehow he messed up his voice permanently doing so. After that and until his death at 13 years old, he would occasionally let out something vaguely resembling a bullfrog croak anytime he'd "meow"


GTA6_1

Aww poor guy! Its hit or miss if they mind the car or not. We have one who hates the car and trieds to bite his way out of the carrier until the car stops. and one who wants to lay on the dash and watch the world fly by. She's fine for an hour and a half in the car but that's the longest trip I've taken her on. I'm sure she'd be fine on a road trip with stops.


bootycakes420

They only meow when they need something! So your spoiling has given her everything she wants without her telling you ā¤ļø I have 4 cats that won't shut up if you ever want to see what you're missing

-Clarity-

My Beth is almost 7 and she weighs exactly 6.8lbs never more never less. She was completely silent the first month we had her now she never shuts up. I wouldn't have it any other way


ergaster8213

My little baby is 8 and I don't know why she's so tiny but she is. She's at most 4 pounds and I almost die of cuteness overload when she runs at me with her tiny legs.


Lordborgman

I have a 1.5 year old, he does not meow. He makes little meep noises.


bootycakes420

My 3yo cat mostly chirps and likes to sit on shoulders. I am constantly reminding him he's not, in fact, a bird


Chris__P_Bacon

I've got one that's 10 years old that still meows like she did when I got her at 12 weeks. It's not quite as high pitched, but it's definitely a kitten meow.


carolina8383

My tiny girlie is a year old and a few weeks. She has a baby meow, but every once in a while a big kitty mrow comes out. Itā€™s always funny when she has a big meow.Ā 


Dhammapaderp

One of my girls is 8 this year. Her and her brother still "meow" just like they did when I found them as kittens, which sounds like an exaggerated whispered '*mau*' Her brother is at a family member's house and they are fat but kinda stocky, lazy, skittish whisperers. When they get louder its like a 1950s actress gasping audibly.


Ophelyn

I have a boy kitty who is about a year old and he's 8lbs with the tiniest most adorable trilling mews ever. He's my forever baby! He also still suckles.


KaiserGustafson

I had a cat like that, a rescue who looked like a siamese who stayed absolutely TINY. Alas, she had health complications and passed, but I'm glad we kept her happy for the few years we did.


BriarcliffInmate

Yep, we have one of those. He grew a little bit but he's still small for an adult male cat, and he's adorable.


GreatQuestionBarbara

My cat is a bit smaller than his older brother, and has a higher pitched meow for it. It's really easy to distinguish who is yelling at me.


Meshugugget

One of my cats, who is a big ol' chonk, still has the tiniest little squeak of a meow. I don't know why she's that way. She only meows if she got trapped somewhere or if someone touches her anywhere but her chin. Squeaks of outrage come out of her if you do any petting in unauthorized locations.


BriarcliffInmate

Haha we've got two, a tiny one who never shuts up and a chonk who only meows when she really, really wants something.


ILLESSDEE

My boy never did hehe - https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cv6Qk1eLoZG/?igsh=ZzljbzNnZnVtaHk=


supershinythings

My neighborā€™s cat is about 1.5 years old and he still has the highest mew mew mew pitch Iā€™ve ever heard in an adult cat. Most grow out of them but for some reason he still sounds like a tiny little kitten.


icoominyou

I got my baby when she was 6months old and now shes 11 months old. Shes still a baby but sometimes I look at her and go wow she grown a lot. Cant wait to see how she looks in a year!!


Apart-Salamander-752

Even if you donā€™t want anything to do with a cat, it would be impossible to say no to that little face.


AnotherPersonsReddit

I'm allergic as all get out to cats. It'd be hard but I'd have to say no. I just hope my kids aren't around when it happens.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Environmental_Sun822

Our veterinarian also has severe cat allergies as well and she says the same thing.


AnotherPersonsReddit

More power to ya, I need sleep and sleep apnea isn't worth a cat.


acloudcuckoolander

That's completely fair.


jennand_juice

Ohhh I didnā€™t know this. I thought I was forever doomed to not be able to own a kitty. So glad I read this! Ty


[deleted]

Look up Purina Liveclear, its a very special and not that much more expensive cat food thats helped IMMENSLY. It's regular cat food but made with eggs from chickens that were raised around farm cats. The chickens create natural anti-allergans in their eggs when around cats to help their chicks, they bind to the allergens in cat saliva and heavily reduce cat allergys in humans when you feed them liveclear cat food.


Jinxzy

It depends greatly on how severe your allergy is, as well as amount of exposure. When we adopted our cat I was inside the shelter for like 10 minutes and I basically couldn't breathe and had to walk outside. But in the house with our single cat, I only got a bit sneezy/runny nose if I had direct exposure to it. I got a prescription nosespray from my doctor that I was meant to use every day, and I could keep the allergy at bay almost entirely with a half-dose once a week. And after ~4-6 months my body seems to have exposure-therapied out of it because I don't even need it anymore. Allergies are fucky though because it *can* just as well go the other way and you become *more* allergic from exposure... Not much rhyme or reason to it, sadly.


Wastawiii

My brother is allergic to cats, but there is one cat that does not cause him any allergies. BTW, they are farm cats.Ā 


GrimGearheart

Just so you know, I was very allergic to cats, but someone told me it might just go away once you're acclimated to the cat. So I got one, and sure enough, my allergies eventually went away. Didn't take long either. I'm sure for some it's more serious, but there's a chance!


AnotherPersonsReddit

I had a cat for the first 10 years of my marriage. The cat was with my wife before I was so I kinda didn't have a choice. After the cat passed, and we moved, my symptoms got a lot better.


pointlessly_pedantic

I worked on a farm once with my cousin and uncle. Uncle's cat had babies. I became really attached to one of the runts. Mom's allergic but says I can keep her if she stays in the basement with me. My cousin drives back home with us and leaves his favorite chunky boy of a kitten with me to keep my favorite kitten company. When my mom picks up chunky boy from being neutered, he recognizes her as his savior and follows her around ALL day every day. And to the misfortune of her allergy, she fell in love with the robust lil cottonball. We had to set boundaries and my mom still had trouble with her allergies, but she fell so in love with them that she couldn't say no lol. It was a rough time for her but she still cries whenever they come up in conversation. RIP to the skinny little fuck and the fat little fuck. Stinky little hairball gremlins.


HermaeusMajora

I'm mildly allergic. If cat dander gets in my eyes they get bloodshot and puffy and ich like no tomorrow. It's terrible but it's nowhere near as bad as never having any kitties around.


nefD

ah, good to see the Cat Distribution System still working as intended


shoe_owner

I am 99% certain that if we saw the minute or so of footage preceding this clip, it would be this guy's wife or girlfriend setting their kitten down, then getting out of frame so he could record their distressed little cat running towards him for comfort.


StupendousMalice

That is... almost certainly exactly what happened here.


TheThunderbird

Either that, or this guy doesn't particularly like cats or want anything to do with them, and is therefore a cat magnet... like me.


PinchingNutsack

YOU SHUT YOUR WHORE MOUTH!!!! \*cries in jealousy*


TheThunderbird

My wife loves cats. She says they can sense her desperation. They won't go near her.


DustBunnicula

Yup. I canā€™t stand it, when people use animals for views like this.


WibaTalks

But wait there is more. People used to just few years ago throw their animals in oil buckets just to pretend they are saving random animals. Humanity, what a beautiful creation.


TerribleDanger

Youā€™re probably right, but this is exactly how I got my first cat. A stray had kittens and they ran around the neighborhood pretty feral. But one day one of them just came running up to me and climbed up my leg so I took her home. Had her for 17 years.


Affectionate_Star_43

A shelter took in a "feral" litter of cats by me.Ā  I've had my boy for 3 years now!


Dolenjir1

100%. But a dramatization of facts doesn't undo the fact. I had a random kitten once get inside my house and declare it her new residence. We named her Esmeralda and lived happily ever after. Until of course her untimely demise. The curse of every pet owner


Complete-Painter-518

We got sherloc over here


Substantial_Trip5674

Glass half empty type, though I'm sure it happens. Just a cynical assumption to jump to. "What animal just runs up to you like that?" Baby ones. Being around children quite a bit, it's no longer surprising when a random child / friend on my partner's son grabs my hand not realizing I'm not their dad.


richgayaunt

The kitten is socialized so some human along the way did that. It's not a negative view, just a view exactly as realistic as a (socialized) child reaching for a human adult.


Yelebear

Also the kitten is a little too clean to be a stray


Interesting-Visual86

Realistic is how it's spelled not cynical


ExtrudedPlasticDngus

*Sherlock


SadBoiCri

Nah he's the Great Value version: Sherloc


[deleted]

Yeah, that's a sad trend. Some people hurt their pets and pose as if it's some poor animal they rescued. This one clearly also looks very well taken care of, which means the cat may have run away, has a mamma cat which may miss it or it's indeed their pet that they pose as a street animal. It's a sad world, my friend.


ThePhilosophistt

r/rimjob_steve


lordofly

What are you guys crying about. Nobody is claiming anything. "You're now a cat owner" doesn't claim anything except the obvious. Now if someone had then shot the poor animal you might have reason to bitch and moan.


[deleted]

So is the cat distribution not a real thing then ?


M37h3w3

Oh it's a real thing. I've had six cats. Only ever got one from a shelter.


ScullyIsTired

One of my four cats was given to me by an old lady outside of a grocery store. CDS volunteer.


CantHandleTheThrow

All three of my cats were strays. Not one of them ran up to me in the middle of a paved pathway and climbed my leg.


[deleted]

VVen0m

True. I'd be just standing there in the middle of the street crying for like half an hour before actually taking the little guy home.


GottaUseEmAll

That's a very healthy and well cared for, very young, kitten that sees humans as safe people. I'd say finding their owner and home should be the goal here, not being a sudden cat owner.


Krystamii

Or could be like where I live and have tons of cats everywhere, many cat owners to feed all the strays and love them, but the city won't do anything except catch and release them where they were found. Like, we even asked our landlord for permission to be a part of the program cause there are so many cats on our property that aren't ours but they said no. So like, we can't get in trouble for all the cats and can't do anything but manually take them to shelters and pay to make sure they get a home. So it's kind of easier just to care for the neighborhood kittens. I used to take cats in and care for them but I literally had 15 cats inside my home, not including the outdoor cats. It's kind of ridiculous, me and my partner drove through a nearby trailer park and counted well over 30 cats just walking around. As of right now I personally have four cats, but take care of a good amount more outside. One cat I could never get near had five kittens, we only seen four initially until we found the fifth in my dad's vehicle crying, that one became my kitty cat while the other four stayed with the mom (he wanted to go with us and didn't wanna be outside) but two of the kittens outside eventually went missing, I assume someone picked them up because they were ridiculously elegant looking. (The kitten I got was the odd one out, orange and floofy, the other four were white floofy one, a striped short haired one and two long haired black ones) The two black kittens are still with their mom, I can't get near them at all but always feed them as well as with four other strays I know about. Two grey&white kitties that look like clones and two orange kitties one deep orange and the other near blonde. Occasionally other cats stop by. There was an apartment complex that got shutdown a few blocks away and they found around 30 cats in one person's room. So many cats. I can believe running into a random neighborhood kittens and recording it.

I hate how majority of these kitten videos running up to people seem to be people just planting the cat and waiting for it to run back to them. Same with the ones that are dirty or injured. Can't help but to distrust them.

Chrspy26

My family's first cat when I was growing up did this when she arrived in our home, as did the cat my wife and I adopted at the kill-shelter we found her at (during a Feline AIDS epidemic no less). The first one picked me as the favorite one until I moved away and left her behind to live with my sister, and the one my wife and I raise now strongly prefers me over my wife or my kid. I don't think I could pass up on a kitten that does this to me.
