After a cat owner brought home a kitten she found starving and alone, her cat adopted him as her own. The heartwarming story of Bluebelle and Arthur has captured the attention of many on social media, with a TikTok video showing the older cat grooming the rescued kitten and meowing at her owner. The video, posted by user @fleur.de.lis2, has since gone viral, receiving over 2 million views and 350,000 likes.
The video showcases the special bond between Bluebelle and Arthur, highlighting the older cat’s maternal instincts as she takes on the role of adoptive mom. Despite initial concerns about how Bluebelle would react to the new addition to the family, it is clear that she has fully embraced her role and is caring for the kitten with love and affection.
While Bluebelle’s reaction to Arthur may seem like a fairy tale, introducing a new kitten to an adult cat can be a challenging process for many pet owners. However, with patience and the right approach, most cats can learn to cohabitate peacefully.
According to Catster, key steps in introducing a new kitten to an adult cat include creating a safe space for the kitten, taking it to the vet for a checkup, and swapping bedding items to introduce the cats to each other’s scent. Once the cats are comfortable with each other’s scent, supervised face-to-face meetings can begin, starting with short sessions that gradually increase in duration.
Feeding the cats together in the same room can also help them associate positive experiences with each other’s presence. It is important for cat owners to monitor their pets for signs of stress and maintain a consistent routine throughout the introduction process. Using treats to reinforce positive interactions and staying patient can help foster a harmonious relationship between the new kitten and the adult cat.
The heartwarming story of Bluebelle and Arthur serves as a reminder of the special bond that can develop between pets, even in unexpected circumstances. The viral TikTok video has touched the hearts of many, with viewers expressing admiration for Bluebelle’s nurturing instincts and the adorable relationship between the two cats.
