At the beginning of April, a married couple from Washington, the capital of the United States, saved the life of an abandoned pregnant cat. The account was shared by Daniel Joy on Tik Tok.
According to the video’s author, she and her husband were walking through their neighborhood when they found a poorly cared for and pregnant kitten in the neighbor’s yard. Seeing the condition of the animal, they decided to take it home.

The attitude saved both the cat’s and the kittens’ lives and gave hope to the feline family. On the same day, the mother cat went into labour. “At 2.20am she woke me up and delivered her first baby in my bed”Danielle said on her profile.

The cat, named Minnie, has given birth to nine kittens. The work lasted for five hours, but only 6 cats survived due to the physical conditions of the mother, who was left on the street with poor health. Despite the rescue, the couple didn’t have much time to better feed her, which would allow for a calmer birth.

Despite the three losses, all survivors and mothers are currently being neutered. Children will never know the hard life of stray animals and need not worry anymore, you have gained a comfortable home and responsible parents.

The pups find homes, and the parents of a friend of the woman Minnie rescued adopt them. This way, Gabrielle can visit her whenever she wants and miss her. The video shared on Tik Tok has more than 4 million views, 730 thousand likes and more than eight thousand comments.
One netizen commented, “The fact that she was born in your bed means that she felt safe next to you.”
“For scenes like this I pay for the internet,” he said again, “I cry and the cats aren’t even mine.”
“Lonely females have a hard life. A third added.

There are many reasons that may lead to complications at birth. And although it is “instinct and nature” for animals to give birth naturally, beware, if there is any difficulty, take your pet to the vet.

Some tips to see if there is a need are:
- If you exceed ten minutes of intense work, and do not expel the puppy that can be seen in the vulva of the female.
- Avoid gently pulling on the fetus, as this may cause pain.
- The female is depressed, lethargic, or has a fever (rectal temperature greater than 103°F or 39.4°C).

But of course, if you no longer want pets, neutering can prevent future complications and ensure your pet’s safety and health.
