An Instagram video shows a cat showering with baby after a night away and in love
In the clip, a devoted cat patiently waits outside her sister’s nursery door all night. When the morning arrives, the owner opens the door and the enthusiastic cat makes a beeline for the baby’s crib. Without hesitation, the cat begins to lick the baby affectionately, as if to say, “I missed you.” User @the_heatermees captioned the video. “He loves his wimp.”
Instagram users quickly showered with love on the heartwarming clip. “This is one of the sweetest things I’ve ever seen,” commented one commenter, and another predicted that “they’ll be best friends for life.” Many viewers shared their own experiences of similar bonds between pets and babies. “My cat did this to all three of my babies. They slept in the crib with them every night,” recalled one user.
The relationship between a cat and a baby is incredibly nurturing. Once you get used to the new baby in the house, cats often form a protective and loving bond. This can manifest in a variety of ways, such as maintaining a meticulous clock, gently tweaking it, or kissing it as you can see in this video. Cat licking behavior is usually a sign of love and a way to mark and enhance your baby with scent.
