Sometimes life plants opportunities to be kind to animals in your lap, and if you find yourself able to help, you should absolutely take it.

TikTok user @angusthegingercat (who typically shares her adorable 13-week old cat, Angus) recently took to social media to share her journey of helping save an adorable stray Tuxedo Kitten. The kitten, a little girl, is teeny tiny and in need of special care. But her reaction to getting to sleep inside fot he first time in a nice, warm blanket is incredibly precious.

The kitten, now named Nellie, is being well taken care of and seems so content in her new home. Commenters commended the sweet act and the kindness shown to little Nellie.

"Little baby is so happy! Look at those paws ! "

"Excellent! Now more time to focus on being cute. PS: i could watch this on loop all day."

"We all deserve second chances"

Taking Care of Stray Kittens

If you encounter kittens in that appear to be strays, it's important to properly assess the situation first. Make sure that first, the kitten is in fact orphaned and you're not also dealing with a stray mama cat, and connect with local animal advocacy groups if you're not sure if you can handle caring for the kitten.

With little kittens you should follow three crucial steps:

  • Assess: Make sure the kitten is orphaned and in need of assistance by watching and observing, not solely reacting at first encounter or glance.
  • Contain: Keep the kitten in a safe environment and make sure it is warm enough to maintain its body temperature.
  • Comfort: Focus on things like getting the kitten fed and taking care of its needs so it is comfortable, content, and happy.

As always, consult a veternarian right when you can as well. Experts are always our friends in these situations!
