Many of you are still asking about different things, so I'll try to answer the most frequent questions here: [1] How did I name him? Taz (like the Tasmanian Devil). [2] Did I check if there are more kittens under the bridge? I didn't check but Taz and I were there for good 30 min making a lot of noise. If there were any more kittens, for sure they were going to come out eventually too. Taz came along later very easily, way too easily. I don't think he was going to leave behind so easily other kitten/kittens. He must have been alone there. [3] Why did I have cat treats with me? I carry dog and cat treats with me on these hikes as part of my usual equipment. I had some very serious encounters with barking dogs, so I use the treats to bribe such beasts. But sometimes I will meet sweets cats or dogs too, and I would offer them the treats if not already used on barking dogs. [4] What is 21K? 21K is 21 kilometers (21 km). That's the distance of a half-marathon. 21 km is equal to 13 miles. [5] Did I really hike 21 km that day? No, I actually hiked around 27-28 km (around 17 miles). The river itself had the length of 21 km, but I had to reach the place where it breaks ground first, which was about 6 km. [6] Where is this, what country? It's in Europe, the Balkans. Which country exactly is not that important, I would like to hike all over Europe anyway. [7] Why did I hesitate so much? What's wrong with me? Well, keep in mind that I just hiked 27-28 km (17 miles) before little Taz decided to "attack" me with all the cuteness. I was beyond tired at that moment. I couldn't think straight, probably couldn't think at all. Yes, he was little but not a helpless few days old kitten lets say, and he looked healthy and uninjured. Yes, he was very hungry, but somehow it didn't feel like a life-and-death kind of situation. Or I wasn't reading it correctly. Again, I couldn't even think, I was very tired. [8] Why not simply take him to a shelter? Did I really consider leaving him? To be honest it didn't even cross my mind that this is an option. I think shelters over here have a real bad reputation and many people would even prefer to simply abandon their pets than take them to a shelter, in a way the pet will have the better chances out there than in a shelter. I don't know, it's a complex topic. But back then I felt like really having only two options: either I leave him, or take him with me to be my cat. [9] You staged the whole thing! That was already your cat! Not really a question, but I will answer it anyway. No, I didn't stage it. I am not that smart (or stupid) to do something like that. What you see is what happened. My camera was already on, so I simply kept filming. If all that was to happen off camera, I was probably not even going to turn it on. [10] Did I really try to run away from Taz? I was kind of running out of ideas what to do, so I eventually did try to simply run away too. But not once, I tried it three times. The first two tries Taz was surprisingly more than able to keep up with me and didn't work at all. The third time he stayed a little bit behind and if I was to keep running, I was going to be free. But I stopped myself and went back to him. That's when I finally decided he is coming with me for good. All that was before we were walking to the car (7:07). What I said that I couldn't run away from him is true both figuratively and literally I guess.
If this goes on like that, I might not be able to answer all comments. Sorry about that. And many thanks to everybody for watching and commenting, it's incredible how many people like our little story. Taz will come back, I am waiting for the right time and place. If he enjoys the hike, we'll do many more. Special thanks to @JacksonGalaxy for the million tips and @BeckyMarshallDesign for the litter box one ( th-cam.com/video/LhgynG941D8/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=BeckyMarshallDesign )
You came along at the right time! That kitten was so happy to see you and get those treats! That's a smart thing to bring those dogs snacks along on your hikes so dogs don't hurt you. Aww, that poor kitty is crying out - Don't leave me here! I'm starving and I'm all alone! I wonder where its mother went? That's crazy! So glad you took that kitty home. That would've broken my heart if you left that kitten out in the woods to starve to death. You gave it a good home. So glad to see it playing and that you love him. That's great! You're a good man!
@@--Taz-- He is either a stray or someone dumped him, no way he's feral. But he chose you, that's what cats do, and I'm willing to bet with the right training, you may have just found yourself a good hiking buddy. Beautiful coat too. But do read up on the problems with feeding dry food to male cats. There is the high potential for very serious urinary track problems. Some (not all) cats won't go to the water bowl often enough, and the best way to fix that problem is wet food. Best of luck with your new family member, this little guy seems quite sweet.
I too didn’t want or have time for a cat. Instead, I found a 4 week old kitten with a broken jaw, broken tail and a crushed vocal box in an alley. Never thought she’d survive the night. But if she did I’d take her to the vet. Four years later, as I type this she’s sitting at my feet. Follows me around the house, wherever I go. It’s a nice feeling doing something you really don’t want to do and then being rewarded for it day after day.
You’re a hero man. I remember picking up my kitten after work, blind little thing had her eyes crusted over just sitting in front of my car. I couldn’t just let her sit there, probably wouldn’t have lasted the night. Didn’t even know if could really take her in. Genuinely thought she died on the car ride home. Had to syringe feed her for weeks. I can happily say the little bandit made a full recovery and is one my biggest joys daily. May only have one eye but lord is she feisty.
This is so tru I used to not be a cat person until my cat showed up he was barely a couple weeks old I found him outside in the cold and took him in let’s just say I like cats now
I love the "I can't take care of you" then when he gets the kitty home, he buys a cat tower, a soft bed, a kitty bowl, and lots of toys! He's a good kitty dad!
When a kitten scream meows like that as well as devours food like he did, it means the little guy was STARVING! He was desperate, literally clinging to you so you would take him and thank god you did. Surely saved his life as he probably wouldn't have lasted much longer. With how hard he ws purring when you found eachother, his mind was made up.. "Human.. You are mine!"
Same way my old cat adopted me. Just walked right up and started purring. Had white fur as a kitten but grew a tan cream stripe as he got older and healthier. Died during covid. That was a hell of a depressing time.
You saved his life. He was clearly abandoned and starving. He was under the bridge for shelter. He was too social and affectionate. He had human interaction before being abandoned.
When I see a kitten run towards a human expecting to be rescued, it makes me angry. It means that it has been interacting with humans as a source of food, play & protection. Then the kitten was abandoned when it was no longer convenient. People who abandon animals make me very angry.
4:00-6:00 "no, go home to bridge kitty" 10:30-14:58 "he is my cat now, I've bought him toys, a cat tower, taken him to the vet, done research, also dunno where he came from, but he's very sweet and loves people and he is now my baby"
I hope he takes this little guy on hikes so Taz can get out in nature again. Taz would need a leash & halter -collar until he got used to it (until he learned to stick around). Taz could ride in his backpack when he got tired. There is a guy who travels with his cat as he bicycles around Europe, and it makes for such compelling video. I can't imagine my cats living permanently indoors. I've always had a 'Kitty door'.
@@kindlydude We live right next to a large wild area with rattlesnakes and coyotes, so my mom won't let our cat be an outdoor cat, but she loves going out in the backyard on a stationary leash!
I wonder if that tiny little desperate mite didn't stray by accident from his Mother playing maybe she was feral/stray, and then he obviously got lost for a long time maybe a few days? Defending his tender body from foxes, much bigger wild cats, foxes, birds of prey for starters, not to mention vehicles from nearby village! Or perhaps the barely weened then tiny little kitten slipped out of someone's carrier basket by accident? Never to see his siblings again!? Sad. They make a cool interspecies pair I agree time for adventures with harness video series wild camping together? Back out on trail to explore under the mysterious bridge and from whence he came (not my theory) intrepid river he was supposed to get knotted in! Thank God he didn't fall down there when kicked!!!!Rattlesnakes and Cayote?! No wonder the tiny defenseless lone kitten was screaming and gripping onto this guy with every ounce of strength it had left in it's fragile weak body, begging him to save it! Thank you for doing the right thing man!
@@impv1se Read the pinned comment and educate yourself on what the filmer's content normally is before you make assumptions like that. He films while hiking, he had his camera on long before the encounter happened. He's also said this which I'll copy/paste below. *" No, I didn't stage it. I am not that smart (or stupid) to do something like that. What you see is what happened. My camera was already on, so I simply kept filming. If all that was to happen off camera, I was probably not even going to turn it on. "* Please do your research before saying stuff like this.
@@impv1se "I won't trust him, so I'll just assume and speculate 🤓" You prolly never have dealt with street animals. They will socialize even with strangers if they had past experiences with a human and weren't abused
To people who think this is scripted, this guy had tons of long/less edited hiking videos including this specific hike before the channel changed to a cat channel. This is not scripted.
I must say that this seems very sus also especially when we see the clip a week later and he talks about how much he weighed and that he weighs 800 grams more than a week ago… so he took the cat home and immediately weighed him…
Him telling the kitty all the bad things about the city and the cat was just like "yay i can climb and cuddle him again" and you could even hear the purring 😭😭
Good intentions of course but if you do intend on keeping him don't feed them salt laden jerky which I assume that was. They truly can't handle that amount of salt and time delay will be worth it. Wonderful effort on your part. Best to you,
@@jiffjiffernson7292 U should read the description before commenting it is written these were cat supplements sticks I also use some of them to treat my few strays I take care of & by the way even the chickens and jackdaws like them because they are tasty lol 😂
I love how it went from "No, I can't take you, go back!" To a single transition where, in only a week, you have a cat tower, a toy, and have already had a vet visit.
This Cat will give you a special kind of Cat Love not every owner gets. The way he attached so quickly to you and he was clearly starving! He somehow was separated from his Mother and on his own at too young of an age to be able to survive. The trauma he was dealing with was ALL taken away by you! You were more then just his source of food! You were his new replacement Mother to help it cope and learn what it's Mother would've taught him! You are his rescuer, his hunter, his Mother, his Provider, his Savior, HIS PERSON! You saved it from a situation it wouldn't have survived- he will show you that Same Love TENFOLD! God Bless you for saving Taz's precious life!
I LOVE THE CONTEMPLATING- “This is not good” “Well you know I am a cat person..” “I live in the city and your a country side cat, you won’t like it there” “It really matches my shirt…”
I laughed when the cat started following him and he said, "Dammit". That cat chose you. Thank you for taking care of him. You created a nice home for him.
My mom recently had a delivery show up on her back porch. He just showed up and was very friendly, and after a few weeks he came back with some injuries. She took him to the vet and wouldn't you know it she has a new house cat

I have a very strong feeling this kitten has been dumped, the fact it trusts a human so fast and was so hungry says enough. You are a good person for taking it home and caring the kitten. I think it would forever be grateful.
The fact that someone would dump a kitten...good God, how heartless can a person be. I can't see why anyone would do that. What do they expect the cat to do?
@@ThunderTheBlackShadowKitty 3 days ago I found 2 kittens at the transfer station, they literally just ran up to me. Sadly people do that even when there's $500 fines (and yes I hope to keep them)
@@lylasaur6694 My heart can't fucking take it when people do this shit. That fine oughta be $1000! Really teach those folks a lesson about life and morality. Pets are our friends, not trash!!!
@Arynn A year ago I adopted a lone kitten two town workers found. He was sleeping under the rain on the edge of a field. He was famished but way too clean, no fleas, no worms, nothing, he was super healthy. I'm pretty sure he lived inside with his mum and that he was dumped. He was only one month old, I was so mad. I have another one who was the last one from a litter and the owner couldn't find someone to take him so she just put him in her backyard 24/7 I don't understand people.
@@ThunderTheBlackShadowKitty , we are the same species that murders unborn people, old people, promotes the LGBTQ ways of thought, environmentalism, veganism, racism, sexism, classism, and elitism, so it honestly should not shock you that there are people that abandon, and/or torture animals, let alone humans.
@@abeal49 That was my experience as well. On a walk out in the country. Stopped to pet a pony. Mama kitty and two babies watched from the side of the road, and when my dog took notice, momma and one baby dashed away, and my Rosie Cat came straight at me, right under the dog's nose, and adopted me. I was her human for her entire 21 years of earth life.
It’s like that guy who was biking across the world and found a kitty and his entire existence became that cat. He named her Nala and even wrote a book about her
@@cosmicreef5858 It's somewhere in the middle. I also consider them as people in a way but more like children. Limited capability and unable to comprehend duty or rights. While they do have rights when it pertains to us, animals in nature have no rights other than the right to protect themselves. So to us yes they are sort of like people, but also they aren't people at all. I just see them like more like children/babies personally. I talk to them like people just like I talk to children like normal people. There's nothing they love more than love and respect. Even to the point they understand us far more than we realize they do, if you talk to your cat your cat knows bits and pieces of what your saying. And at a minimum they can read the tone and warmth of your voice.

I foster kittens and I am always moved by people that adopt strays. My guess is that this kitten was 5.5 weeks old and likely dumped by someone. Normally at this age, they would not approach a human unless they have had interaction with humans. My previous batch to the last was 4 about 5 week old kittens and they were semi-feral. They would hide under furniture. It took a week for them to become comfortable. By the time they went to their forever homes at 9 weeks, they were as sweet as kittens get.
It actually CAN change the world...one person at a time. Someone can become inspired by the video and save more cats/kittens/dogs,... It can also inspire people to be kind.
I rescued 4 kitten and a mother 2 were mothers kitten and 2 were in the street sadly the mother died and the 3 kitten found a happy home near my house the lil sister came to the kitten I have they play and sleep together
Safe to say I've NEVER seen a kitten this determined before. He got me screaming "TAKE HIM HOME!" the whole video. Poor little guy looked scared and starved, but he trusted you. You made the right choice, he probably would've died if he got left behind!
Someone dumped him. How’s such a young kitten going to survive out there? I agree he would have died. Everything about him says “pleeease don’t leave me here all on my own”.
That’s because they have something that literally about only 1-2% of people have. A strong intuition and the cat knew he was the right choice based off that which he clearly was.
I love how’s he’s trying to rationalize. “I can’t take you, I live in the city” and then “well if I ever did get a cat or dog, it would be a cat. And look, you match my shirt”❤
The calls the kitten makes in the beginning are distress calls, note the difference between them and the squawky "feed me" sounds later. It's a great early sign that you've found an abandoned animal as opposed to a feral or local stray. He looks so happy with you!
Yeah it's how mom and babies locate each other once they begin to be mobile. I was just thinking how the kitten must have heard his voice when he was narrating for his video, otherwise he might not have come out to just a silent hiker walking around! Poor kitten I'm so glad he's safe now
As a random girl behind a screen that's inlove with animals and wants to adopt a ragdoll kitten / cat I can agree and confirm this is indeed a 10/10 cat
@@Yvonna582 cats are like having kids with 1 additional part; you have to deal with the cat's sandbox. If you're mentally prepared to take care of a cat definitely go for it. They are easier than handling a dog since they are more independent. They can be trained as good as a dog however! Good luck!
@@mistaowickkuh6249 many are toilet trainable using the litter quitter or city kitty change out adapters. Once trained they simply use by standing on the toilet 🚽 seat. The water replaces the litter. Some have even learned to flush. 👍
@@buckjohnson1119 of course I've seen some of those but I'm not comfortable with allowing my animal friend to stand on top of a water filled hole in which their heads can fit. If my cat ended up drowning that way, I can't foresee the extent of self harm I would inflict upon myself.
@@mistaowickkuh6249 Cats are VERY VERY VERYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY INDEPENDENT... Our taffy cat before it passed away, always wanted to be outside. So, one day we let him out and instantly became an outside cat... He would show up around dinner time or lunch... then leave and bring back snake or squirrel in his mouth... lol... There were other time he didn't come home at all for 2 whole weeks... lol... we thought he was gone for good, but then as I was leaving for work in the morning one summer day with sun already shinnying, there he was sitting on the concrete walkway patiently waiting to be let into the house... as soon as I opened the door, he quickly ran inside meowing LOUDER and LOUDER asking for food... lol...🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is amazing. I love the progression of "Okay, I have to help this animal" to "Oh no, I helped this animal and now it's following me" to "I can't keep you" to "Well, maybe I am going to keep you" to "Well, I bought a cat tree." I'm so happy you adopted him. :)
Taz planned this perfectly: Popped out from under the bridge? Check! Cried piteously? Check! Climbed up your leg repeatedly? Check! Turned on his purring motor? Check! Devoured your kitty foods? Oh yeah check! Matched your shirt? Check, check, check! (It was a checked shirt, grin!) You two are a match made in Heaven! Much happiness and love to you for many years to come!!! 😺😺😺
well when you think about it its just how theyve evolved really, makes sense. the cats that learned to be nice to humans and seek them out got to live long prosperous lives
A little over a year ago me and my brother were playing around when we found 3 stray kittens in pretty bad shape. So we took them in, fed them, cared for them, and eventually we gave them to good people we knew for free to take good care of and raise. One of them lives pretty close so it's always nice to see one of the cats, and think that "He might not be alive if me and my brother didn't take the time and effort to care for them and make sure they went on to live amazing life's." Also the one I still get to see is Static, and he is doing amazing! I'm so happy me and my brother found and chose the good route out, even if it wasn't the easiest way. Much love to you for taking in that kitten even when you didn't want to❤.
For those who think this is scripted/fake. I had a person in my neighborhood abandon his 6-7 month old kitten and leave. His next door neighbor told me they were kicking the cat and laughing at it trying desperately to go with them. The cat would come eat and get water at my feral feeding station, then run back to his empty house, hoping his family had returned. One morning my inside cats were extremely interested in something happening outside, and I thought maybe a bird had fallen from a nest. Nope, a coyote was stalking the abandoned kitten. He came running to me screaming, climbed me like a tree, and locked on with all claws. The coyote sat down and watched us, saw his lunch go into the house, and after a few minutes, went on his way. Mynx was named after a device used in a cardiac cath, and he is a healthy 3 year old. He is my best cat, sleeps beside me, and will not go anywhere near a door. His behavior was much like that of Taz those first days …. frantic screaming if I was out of his sight.
That's kind of how I got my Oscar (the very same Oscar who keeps tapping my arm as I write this comment demanding pets). I went to the Humane Society to adopt another kitten (my Lily). When I went into the room to see her, as soon as I walked up to the cat tree she was sleeping on, Oscar jumped onto my shoulder, laid down, and wouldn't move. He was purring so loud and when i tried to grab him, he dug his claws into my shirt. I was like, okay, I guess you're coming home with us. He is 3 now. I got him when he was 2 months old. We have 5 rescues. They are my babies. They all chose me, my wife, or my sons when we went in to the HS. Love my babies.
@@touristofsongs4946 they are my babies to me. You're entitled to your opinion, but that doesn't mean I have to care about it, which of course, I don't.
I so love the story about Taz. You never stood a chance. That cat was adopting you the minute you saw him. Please buy Taz a special treat from a US fan and let him know he is a superstar to a lot of people. Thanks!
Like they say, cats choose their owners and this is the most extreme example of that... Out in the middle of no where and a little kitten comes up to you incredibly friendly like you "already own it"
Why not, he chose you, why do you always want to make him go back to the bridge, stop being so mean & just take him with you, you just want to abandon him & look for food on his own, that's not right, are you really that mean🐾🐾🐾🐾
So, I got this video randomly recommended, without having watched anything by this creator and it's a cute video of a cat distribution system at work. Then I click on the creator's name (as I usually do) and I can see a channel filled with cat videos, of the same cat, as an adult. My heart has been warmed and my day has been officially made. Thank you.
A famous youtuber once went for a bike ride, and ended up with a kitten that he took all over the world on his bike journeys. Maybe you can make this little guy your own hiking companion.
While that would be cute its honestly significantly more dangerous. That same guy I believe hqd a video where dogs tried to attack them, and he was able to get away because of his bike. When youre hiking you may encounter various animals, and its not easy to escape them on foot. As a big scary human most animals wont mess with you, but a small cat? Thats a snack for them, and they wont care that youre there.
What I love is how he IMMEDIATELY started purring. From second one he decided you were his. Cats are great at picking up on “Vibes” from body language/smell, so that’s a good sign for you.
Having seen a bit more videos on cat behavior follow "Flatbush Cats" this cat did not just purr because it got good vibes. Cats cannot sense if someone is a good person. But Cats are very observant to the way people speak and move. So lets analyze the cat in the video: 1. Cat is very young 2. Cat is very hungry 3. Cat is very used to human contact This one was probably bought from another person or gotten from a shelter and soon after abandoned. It was probably fed for a few weeks or months by their new owners which is where it learned that the food came primarily from humans. Which is why it begged the TH-camr for food when they met and devoured it shortly after. It didnt know how to even hunt cause its a housecat. And all the above means it is already very used to human contact so spotting a human it immediately goes up to them cause "Hey I know that thing" probably still not understanding that it was abandoned cause its too young.
@@GikamesShadowthis breaks my heart and makes me angry thinking someone would abandon a sweet baby like that… I don’t even want to acknowledge that possibility
Poor kitten is trying to nurse. I can't believe how fast the kitten is eating the jerky - he was truly starving! He's a beautiful kitten and I'm so glad that you didn't run away but gave him a home. It would have haunted you for years if you'd left him there.
My dog that is 4 times the size of that kitten can't even eat beef jerky as fast as that. I abandoned a stray kitten up in the forest when it showed up to my house because I didn't think I'd be able to care for another one & it's haunted me ever since.
@@danihi1 What shelter? We live in the country. My mother drove me to the forest with the kitten. I'm pretty sure she would have brought it to a shelter if there was one

This is the funniest video of a kitten choosing a human I have ever seen. You were a goner from the first meow, it just took you awhile to accept that you were chosen and your fate was sealed. Great video, really made my day.
Same thing happened to me. Me and my friend hiked a hill and found 3 kittens abandoned, at first I couldn’t decide which one to pick but I ended up picking all 3 kittens. Now I have them lying here next to me and I can talk my daily troubles to them and they would just stare 😂
My cat found me in much the same way. I didn't have to hike to a bridge, though - the kitten was at my apartment building's entrance, screaming at the top of its lungs, in freezing cold autumn rain. Me and my wife heard him, and, as we opened the entrance into the building, he jumped straight into the hood of my wife's jacket and stayed there, purring. He was also about 2 months old, but quite a bit more underweight. It's heartwarming seeing someone else go through such a similar story. I hope Taz grows up to bring you much more joy and love!
@auschwitzsoccerref.8582 My third cat was found just like this on was, except I was in a car, and the kitten was in the road. When I drove by, he went into a drainage ditch. I stopped the car and walked back. The kitten came running out to meet me, just like this one did. Are you sooooo jaded that all people are evil and only out to get to you any way that they can? You seriously need to find a hobby. I take my 3 cats for walks all of the time, and they do not act like this kitten. After I had the "new" kitten for a week, he was not so clingy, and enjoyed the walks just like the other two.
This little chap knows well how to promote himself , hey! Body language, Crying, purring, talking, etc etc etc he knows the whole book. Yet absolutely starving
Thanks. It was worth it to make the effort to care for the little guy. Taz is a very good cat now. It is almost like if you are good to the cat, the cat will be a good one too. It's amazing how that works.
I love how most dog owners are like "Yeah my dog is this breed, we got him from a reputed breeder 😌" and cat owners are just like "So I was on this hiking trail, found this sucker by pure random chance, and.... we've been friends since!"
Right! My cat literally wandered onto my mom's boyfriends property as a kitten and almost got eaten by his dog. Then my mom saved him and brought him home to our place to try and find a home for him and he was just like nah I live here now. 3+ years laters he's a great cat, totally chose us lol
It was the same for me. My cat Oreo was still young enough to be on milk and she was covered from head to toe in mud and fleas (and looked like a piece of rubber in the road) when I found her on the back roads. Unfortunately she passed away 3-30-20. Hopefully you can be with your little one for far longer than I was able to be with Oreo (black and white domestic shorthair tuxedo cat). It took a huge toll on me emotionally when she passed away (passed away in my arms 😢).
I have 4 rescues at home. A black cat who is now 10 but we found her at about 8 weeks old in a storm so her name is Stormy and triplet Russian Blues who I adopted from a woman giving them away at 6 weeks old. The plan was to find homes for all 3 of them but they were always together snuggling, playing, and sleeping. We assumed they would drift apart and even not like each other as they grew up but that wasn’t the case so the adoptions were cancelled and they are with me as well and are now 5 years old and their names are Smokey, Phoenix, and Ash who is nicknamed “the Pink Demon” because she has a neon pink collar and she is very loud. The triplets like to be on your lap or nugget with each other or with you when it’s bedtime.
The ultimate hiking reward! We've spent 7 years rescuing strays! Congrats on completing the 21K hike, but more importantly, welcome to the furry family! That little ball of fluff has no idea how lucky they are to have found a hero like you. We've experienced our fair share of unexpected rescues, but this one takes the cake. Or should we say, the trail mix? Your hike may have been 21K, but the journey with your new companion will be a lifetime of love, laughter, and adventure. Cheers to many more miles and snuggles!
I love that you can tell this kitten how you cannot look after him, and he won't like living in the "big ugly city", and many other things to try and dissuade him, but he is clearly telling you "There's NO WAY you are leaving without me!" 🤣 I would guess he may have been abandoned as he's so sociable and already knew how to use the litterbox, and I doubt he would have survived for long in the wilderness on his own. So huge thanks to YOU for saving this little guy! 🙏 🙏 🙏
Poor little thing - he was screaming a long time to get that hoarse. When the hiker asks, "Where's your Momma?" I'm thinking she's in the river - or at least his brothers and sisters are. It looks so chunky and healthy at the end of the video.
I can tell you from personal experience that cat's that choose and then bond with a person a young age are some of the best companions; as they grow they'll learn your mannerisms and develop their own unique personality based around on how you've raised them. My own cat was found in the dumpster of a restaurant I had worked at, and now nearly 10 years on he's still the best boy ever.
100% true! my best friend of 19 years was a stray kitten when i found him :3 we were inseparable, and could read each other's body language and emotions. there is nothing quite like the bond that forms between a companion animal & parent who raised them!
@@bookscorpion19 years? He must have had a wonderful life with you. I have two cats. A Birman I rescued who has epilepsy (like me 😊) and a horrible girl cat, who hates everyone and everything, who I found alone in a terrible stinking pet shop. I normally wouldn’t buy from a pet store, but I HAD to get her out of there. I then called RSPCA! I didn’t want any other animals to suffer in that place. Hustle, my girl, is Ill mannered, bad tempered, and unfriendly, but adores me. Mickey, my boy, is the sweetest, kindest, most adorable kitty. Both are 14. I adore them. ❤
Taz is precious and you two evidently were meant to be together. Believe me, I have two cats and a dog, Taz will be a blessing for you. Thank you for saving Taz!!!
Many years ago my dad went hiking in the middle of nowhere with my brother, and they found a tiny kitten deliberately tied to a tree!! 🤬 It is a miracle she was found, this sweet tortie baby, she turned into a very grumpy girl but was very well loved and taken care of for the rest of her long life ❤
@@--Taz-- This little kitty had the best kitty conversation with you about how this would be such a wonderful union/companionship that I've ever heard!! He was just the sweetest little kitten and you have a wonderful heart!! A beautiful Thanksgiving story to watch today in America. Thank you for sharing!!
Many of you are still asking about different things, so I'll try to answer the most frequent questions here:
[1] How did I name him?
Taz (like the Tasmanian Devil).
[2] Did I check if there are more kittens under the bridge?
I didn't check but Taz and I were there for good 30 min making a lot of noise. If there were any more kittens, for sure they were going to come out eventually too. Taz came along later very easily, way too easily. I don't think he was going to leave behind so easily other kitten/kittens. He must have been alone there.
[3] Why did I have cat treats with me?
I carry dog and cat treats with me on these hikes as part of my usual equipment. I had some very serious encounters with barking dogs, so I use the treats to bribe such beasts. But sometimes I will meet sweets cats or dogs too, and I would offer them the treats if not already used on barking dogs.
[4] What is 21K?
21K is 21 kilometers (21 km). That's the distance of a half-marathon. 21 km is equal to 13 miles.
[5] Did I really hike 21 km that day?
No, I actually hiked around 27-28 km (around 17 miles). The river itself had the length of 21 km, but I had to reach the place where it breaks ground first, which was about 6 km.
[6] Where is this, what country?
It's in Europe, the Balkans. Which country exactly is not that important, I would like to hike all over Europe anyway.
[7] Why did I hesitate so much? What's wrong with me?
Well, keep in mind that I just hiked 27-28 km (17 miles) before little Taz decided to "attack" me with all the cuteness. I was beyond tired at that moment. I couldn't think straight, probably couldn't think at all. Yes, he was little but not a helpless few days old kitten lets say, and he looked healthy and uninjured. Yes, he was very hungry, but somehow it didn't feel like a life-and-death kind of situation. Or I wasn't reading it correctly. Again, I couldn't even think, I was very tired.
[8] Why not simply take him to a shelter? Did I really consider leaving him?
To be honest it didn't even cross my mind that this is an option. I think shelters over here have a real bad reputation and many people would even prefer to simply abandon their pets than take them to a shelter, in a way the pet will have the better chances out there than in a shelter. I don't know, it's a complex topic. But back then I felt like really having only two options: either I leave him, or take him with me to be my cat.
[9] You staged the whole thing! That was already your cat!
Not really a question, but I will answer it anyway. No, I didn't stage it. I am not that smart (or stupid) to do something like that. What you see is what happened. My camera was already on, so I simply kept filming. If all that was to happen off camera, I was probably not even going to turn it on.
[10] Did I really try to run away from Taz?
I was kind of running out of ideas what to do, so I eventually did try to simply run away too. But not once, I tried it three times. The first two tries Taz was surprisingly more than able to keep up with me and didn't work at all. The third time he stayed a little bit behind and if I was to keep running, I was going to be free. But I stopped myself and went back to him. That's when I finally decided he is coming with me for good. All that was before we were walking to the car (7:07). What I said that I couldn't run away from him is true both figuratively and literally I guess.
If this goes on like that, I might not be able to answer all comments. Sorry about that.
And many thanks to everybody for watching and commenting, it's incredible how many people like our little story.
Taz will come back, I am waiting for the right time and place. If he enjoys the hike, we'll do many more.
Special thanks to @JacksonGalaxy for the million tips and
@BeckyMarshallDesign for the litter box one ( th-cam.com/video/LhgynG941D8/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=BeckyMarshallDesign )
You came along at the right time! That kitten was so happy to see you and get those treats! That's a smart thing to bring those dogs snacks along on your hikes so dogs don't hurt you. Aww, that poor kitty is crying out - Don't leave me here! I'm starving and I'm all alone! I wonder where its mother went? That's crazy! So glad you took that kitty home. That would've broken my heart if you left that kitten out in the woods to starve to death. You gave it a good home. So glad to see it playing and that you love him. That's great! You're a good man!
@@--Taz-- He is either a stray or someone dumped him, no way he's feral. But he chose you, that's what cats do, and I'm willing to bet with the right training, you may have just found yourself a good hiking buddy. Beautiful coat too. But do read up on the problems with feeding dry food to male cats. There is the high potential for very serious urinary track problems. Some (not all) cats won't go to the water bowl often enough, and the best way to fix that problem is wet food. Best of luck with your new family member, this little guy seems quite sweet.
For a cat you really did not want, you sure bought a lot of toys for it

"Cat adopts stray human, provides higher quality of life..."
Thats the Jungle book
i love this
@@ALUMINIUMOXIDDE Yes, with the ferocious kitty jumping out on the trail. Thank God no lives were lost, and they all lived happily ever after.
I too didn’t want or have time for a cat. Instead, I found a 4 week old kitten with a broken jaw, broken tail and a crushed vocal box in an alley. Never thought she’d survive the night. But if she did I’d take her to the vet. Four years later, as I type this she’s sitting at my feet. Follows me around the house, wherever I go. It’s a nice feeling doing something you really don’t want to do and then being rewarded for it day after day.
You’re a hero man. I remember picking up my kitten after work, blind little thing had her eyes crusted over just sitting in front of my car. I couldn’t just let her sit there, probably wouldn’t have lasted the night. Didn’t even know if could really take her in. Genuinely thought she died on the car ride home. Had to syringe feed her for weeks.
I can happily say the little bandit made a full recovery and is one my biggest joys daily. May only have one eye but lord is she feisty.
@ Jeff I love a happy ending. God Bless you!

Yep. 100%.
This is so tru I used to not be a cat person until my cat showed up he was barely a couple weeks old I found him outside in the cold and took him in let’s just say I like cats now
my cat literally just randomly showed up at my door at 6am and now i have two cats because i adopted one and kept the 6am door cat
I can attest to that.
I love the "I can't take care of you" then when he gets the kitty home, he buys a cat tower, a soft bed, a kitty bowl, and lots of toys! He's a good kitty dad!
It's a huge responsibility. It's not enough just to take him home, you have to put the effort after that so he turns out a good cat.
@@--Taz-- the love a kitty will give in return is well worth the effort.
🤣🤣🤣
He's a big softie.
Broke out laughing at this part ~ the man is now hopelessly doomed, lol! 😂
When a kitten scream meows like that as well as devours food like he did, it means the little guy was STARVING! He was desperate, literally clinging to you so you would take him and thank god you did. Surely saved his life as he probably wouldn't have lasted much longer. With how hard he ws purring when you found eachother, his mind was made up.. "Human.. You are mine!"
I mean....he was PRETTY FAST ,not like he REALLY was out of energy, its more like he lost ,maybe his human or his cat mama
The fact it started purring almost immediately was so charming
more like an indicator of a totally fake 'rescue."
Same way my old cat adopted me. Just walked right up and started purring. Had white fur as a kitten but grew a tan cream stripe as he got older and healthier. Died during covid. That was a hell of a depressing time.
@@helicocktorSorry for your loss

You saved his life. He was clearly abandoned and starving. He was under the bridge for shelter. He was too social and affectionate. He had human interaction before being abandoned.
Poor kitty was waiting for someone to help him he was all alone and vulnerable 😭 😿
@@Channel24377 Yes, I'm so glad the man helped it 🥰
When I see a kitten run towards a human expecting to be rescued, it makes me angry. It means that it has been interacting with humans as a source of food, play & protection. Then the kitten was abandoned when it was no longer convenient. People who abandon animals make me very angry.
@Lisa G it was said cats has a better chance of being adopted out in the streets, than from a shelter. especially iifif

This should be titled "man slowly realizing he now has a cat". Love it!
I was slow indeed but I blame the hike for that
He is slowly realising the cat has him.
Beautiful hike! Dangerously adorable little creature claimed him as his owner 😄. Lovely vid!
“Man coming to terms with being a mom now”
True
4:00-6:00 "no, go home to bridge kitty"
10:30-14:58 "he is my cat now, I've bought him toys, a cat tower, taken him to the vet, done research, also dunno where he came from, but he's very sweet and loves people and he is now my baby"
THIS IS SO CUTEE
I hope he takes this little guy on hikes so Taz can get out in nature again. Taz would need a leash & halter -collar until he got used to it (until he learned to stick around). Taz could ride in his backpack when he got tired. There is a guy who travels with his cat as he bicycles around Europe, and it makes for such compelling video. I can't imagine my cats living permanently indoors. I've always had a 'Kitty door'.
@@kindlydude We live right next to a large wild area with rattlesnakes and coyotes, so my mom won't let our cat be an outdoor cat, but she loves going out in the backyard on a stationary leash!
I wonder if that tiny little desperate mite didn't stray by accident from his Mother playing maybe she was feral/stray, and then he obviously got lost for a long time maybe a few days? Defending his tender body from foxes, much bigger wild cats, foxes, birds of prey for starters, not to mention vehicles from nearby village! Or perhaps the barely weened then tiny little kitten slipped out of someone's carrier basket by accident? Never to see his siblings again!? Sad. They make a cool interspecies pair I agree time for adventures with harness video series wild camping together? Back out on trail to explore under the mysterious bridge and from whence he came (not my theory) intrepid river he was supposed to get knotted in! Thank God he didn't fall down there when kicked!!!!Rattlesnakes and Cayote?! No wonder the tiny defenseless lone kitten was screaming and gripping onto this guy with every ounce of strength it had left in it's fragile weak body, begging him to save it! Thank you for doing the right thing man!
@@maroonsunshinelaura are you ok…?

You were more then just his source of food! You were his new replacement Mother to help it cope and learn what it's Mother would've taught him!

So to us yes they are sort of like people, but also they aren't people at all. I just see them like more like children/babies personally. I talk to them like people just like I talk to children like normal people. There's nothing they love more than love and respect.

Saving that one beautiful little cat will not change the world, but it will change that beautiful little cat's world forever. Thank you.
I foster kittens and I am always moved by people that adopt strays. My guess is that this kitten was 5.5 weeks old and likely dumped by someone. Normally at this age, they would not approach a human unless they have had interaction with humans. My previous batch to the last was 4 about 5 week old kittens and they were semi-feral. They would hide under furniture. It took a week for them to become comfortable. By the time they went to their forever homes at 9 weeks, they were as sweet as kittens get.
It looks like the kitten changed the man's world as much as the man changed the kitten's.
It actually CAN change the world...one person at a time. Someone can become inspired by the video and save more cats/kittens/dogs,...

Congratulations, you have been selected by the Cat Distribution System. 🎉
Safe to say I've NEVER seen a kitten this determined before. He got me screaming "TAKE HIM HOME!" the whole video. Poor little guy looked scared and starved, but he trusted you. You made the right choice, he probably would've died if he got left behind!
Same. I was saying to take baby home, too!
Someone dumped him. How’s such a young kitten going to survive out there? I agree he would have died. Everything about him says “pleeease don’t leave me here all on my own”.
@@cazbiz9332
Especially with the way he starts chasing after the guy and isn’t scared of him in the slightest.
That’s because they have something that literally about only 1-2% of people have. A strong intuition and the cat knew he was the right choice based off that which he clearly was.
@@S1RLANC3 1% is still 80 million people.
I love how’s he’s trying to rationalize. “I can’t take you, I live in the city” and then “well if I ever did get a cat or dog, it would be a cat. And look, you match my shirt”❤
Ha Ha That's what I said.! The kitten matches his shirt. How about when he changes it.
@@veronicaaccouche1478 maybe kitty turns into a Chameleon & changes color, or cat daddy always wears matching colors!
@@elisemiller13 I love it. A personal twin set, shapeshifter.
The calls the kitten makes in the beginning are distress calls, note the difference between them and the squawky "feed me" sounds later. It's a great early sign that you've found an abandoned animal as opposed to a feral or local stray. He looks so happy with you!
Yeah it's how mom and babies locate each other once they begin to be mobile. I was just thinking how the kitten must have heard his voice when he was narrating for his video, otherwise he might not have come out to just a silent hiker walking around! Poor kitten I'm so glad he's safe now

As a man who has been with cats even before I was able to talk I can confirm, this is a 10/10 cat. Even has the creaky meow.
As a random girl behind a screen that's inlove with animals and wants to adopt a ragdoll kitten / cat I can agree and confirm this is indeed a 10/10 cat
@@Yvonna582 cats are like having kids with 1 additional part; you have to deal with the cat's sandbox. If you're mentally prepared to take care of a cat definitely go for it. They are easier than handling a dog since they are more independent. They can be trained as good as a dog however! Good luck!
@@mistaowickkuh6249 many are toilet trainable using the litter quitter or city kitty change out adapters. Once trained they simply use by standing on the toilet 🚽 seat. The water replaces the litter. Some have even learned to flush. 👍
@@buckjohnson1119 of course I've seen some of those but I'm not comfortable with allowing my animal friend to stand on top of a water filled hole in which their heads can fit. If my cat ended up drowning that way, I can't foresee the extent of self harm I would inflict upon myself.
@@mistaowickkuh6249 Cats are VERY VERY VERYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY INDEPENDENT... Our taffy cat before it passed away, always wanted to be outside. So, one day we let him out and instantly became an outside cat... He would show up around dinner time or lunch... then leave and bring back snake or squirrel in his mouth... lol... There were other time he didn't come home at all for 2 whole weeks... lol... we thought he was gone for good, but then as I was leaving for work in the morning one summer day with sun already shinnying, there he was sitting on the concrete walkway patiently waiting to be let into the house... as soon as I opened the door, he quickly ran inside meowing LOUDER and LOUDER asking for food... lol...🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love the part at 7:07 with "This is not good! This is not good!" Like it's some kind of dangerous tiger following you and not a 2 pound kitten.
sometimes kittens also believe they are a tiger with the way they act
because it is a dangerous tiger, look out for em tigers!!!!!! they may get you!!!!
"i triet to run away from it"
The fear of responsibility in owning a cat outweighs the fear of confronting a large predator
2 pounds is way too much for that kitty, lol
This is amazing. I love the progression of "Okay, I have to help this animal" to "Oh no, I helped this animal and now it's following me" to "I can't keep you" to "Well, maybe I am going to keep you" to "Well, I bought a cat tree." I'm so happy you adopted him. :)

A little over a year ago me and my brother were playing around when we found 3 stray kittens in pretty bad shape. So we took them in, fed them, cared for them, and eventually we gave them to good people we knew for free to take good care of and raise. One of them lives pretty close so it's always nice to see one of the cats, and think that "He might not be alive if me and my brother didn't take the time and effort to care for them and make sure they went on to live amazing life's." Also the one I still get to see is Static, and he is doing amazing! I'm so happy me and my brother found and chose the good route out, even if it wasn't the easiest way. Much love to you for taking in that kitten even when you didn't want to❤.
The jump to playing with him at home is HILARIOUS
LOL, loved the switch. Shows how far "conclusive decisions" have gone 😂
For those who think this is scripted/fake. I had a person in my neighborhood abandon his 6-7 month old kitten and leave. His next door neighbor told me they were kicking the cat and laughing at it trying desperately to go with them. The cat would come eat and get water at my feral feeding station, then run back to his empty house, hoping his family had returned. One morning my inside cats were extremely interested in something happening outside, and I thought maybe a bird had fallen from a nest. Nope, a coyote was stalking the abandoned kitten. He came running to me screaming, climbed me like a tree, and locked on with all claws. The coyote sat down and watched us, saw his lunch go into the house, and after a few minutes, went on his way. Mynx was named after a device used in a cardiac cath, and he is a healthy 3 year old. He is my best cat, sleeps beside me, and will not go anywhere near a door. His behavior was much like that of Taz those first days …. frantic screaming if I was out of his sight.
What kind of sociopathic freak kicks and laughs at a kitten?
Glad the cat found a home
Is Mynx ok after 4 months?
@@bwktlcn Yeah, good question @wowserz_177. Is Mynx doing okay?
@@concept5631that cat might be old
Love that you adopted him. I’ve never seen a cat purr so much and climb up someone’s lap. He was determined.
That's kind of how I got my Oscar (the very same Oscar who keeps tapping my arm as I write this comment demanding pets). I went to the Humane Society to adopt another kitten (my Lily). When I went into the room to see her, as soon as I walked up to the cat tree she was sleeping on, Oscar jumped onto my shoulder, laid down, and wouldn't move. He was purring so loud and when i tried to grab him, he dug his claws into my shirt. I was like, okay, I guess you're coming home with us. He is 3 now. I got him when he was 2 months old. We have 5 rescues. They are my babies. They all chose me, my wife, or my sons when we went in to the HS. Love my babies.
Love at first sight ❤

So, I got this video randomly recommended, without having watched anything by this creator and it's a cute video of a cat distribution system at work. Then I click on the creator's name (as I usually do) and I can see a channel filled with cat videos, of the same cat, as an adult. My heart has been warmed and my day has been officially made. Thank you.
A famous youtuber once went for a bike ride, and ended up with a kitten that he took all over the world on his bike journeys. Maybe you can make this little guy your own hiking companion.
do you know the name of the youtuber?
@@taza257 the channel is 1bike1world the TH-camr's name is Dean and the cat's name is Nala! She even has her own book now lol
@@Tericlaws thanks
I saw that omg
While that would be cute its honestly significantly more dangerous. That same guy I believe hqd a video where dogs tried to attack them, and he was able to get away because of his bike. When youre hiking you may encounter various animals, and its not easy to escape them on foot. As a big scary human most animals wont mess with you, but a small cat? Thats a snack for them, and they wont care that youre there.
What I love is how he IMMEDIATELY started purring.
From second one he decided you were his.
Cats are great at picking up on “Vibes” from body language/smell, so that’s a good sign for you.
They are much more intelligent than people give them credit for. They can sense when someone is a trustworthy person.
What if you're kind but haven't showered in weeks
In Soviet Russia- cat choose YOUUUU!
I know he isn’t Russian 😂
Having seen a bit more videos on cat behavior follow "Flatbush Cats" this cat did not just purr because it got good vibes.
Cats cannot sense if someone is a good person. But Cats are very observant to the way people speak and move.
So lets analyze the cat in the video:
1. Cat is very young
2. Cat is very hungry
3. Cat is very used to human contact
This one was probably bought from another person or gotten from a shelter and soon after abandoned. It was probably fed for a few weeks or months by their new owners which is where it learned that the food came primarily from humans. Which is why it begged the TH-camr for food when they met and devoured it shortly after. It didnt know how to even hunt cause its a housecat. And all the above means it is already very used to human contact so spotting a human it immediately goes up to them cause "Hey I know that thing" probably still not understanding that it was abandoned cause its too young.
@@GikamesShadowthis breaks my heart and makes me angry thinking someone would abandon a sweet baby like that… I don’t even want to acknowledge that possibility
Poor kitten is trying to nurse. I can't believe how fast the kitten is eating the jerky - he was truly starving! He's a beautiful kitten and I'm so glad that you didn't run away but gave him a home. It would have haunted you for years if you'd left him there.
My dog that is 4 times the size of that kitten can't even eat beef jerky as fast as that. I abandoned a stray kitten up in the forest when it showed up to my house because I didn't think I'd be able to care for another one & it's haunted me ever since.
@@carpathiankenyou abandoned a kitten in a forest? Why didn’t you just bring it to a shelter? You basically brought him to his death bed.
@@danihi1 What shelter? We live in the country. My mother drove me to the forest with the kitten. I'm pretty sure she would have brought it to a shelter if there was one

Love how he was deciding if he were gonna take it home even though he doesn’t have a choice
This is the funniest video of a kitten choosing a human I have ever seen. You were a goner from the first meow, it just took you awhile to accept that you were chosen and your fate was sealed. Great video, really made my day.
Fully!
Same thing happened to me. Me and my friend hiked a hill and found 3 kittens abandoned, at first I couldn’t decide which one to pick but I ended up picking all 3 kittens. Now I have them lying here next to me and I can talk my daily troubles to them and they would just stare 😂
Aaaa that's adorable! Threes a crowd ahaha
what a Wonderful guy
Ohhhh that’s sweet thanks for taking care of them ☺️
aww how lovely
Wow. So wonderful of you.
My cat found me in much the same way. I didn't have to hike to a bridge, though - the kitten was at my apartment building's entrance, screaming at the top of its lungs, in freezing cold autumn rain. Me and my wife heard him, and, as we opened the entrance into the building, he jumped straight into the hood of my wife's jacket and stayed there, purring. He was also about 2 months old, but quite a bit more underweight.
It's heartwarming seeing someone else go through such a similar story. I hope Taz grows up to bring you much more joy and love!
You and your wife are lovely people 💕
@Auschwitz Soccer Ref. wtf are you talking about? stray kittens act like this lmfao
@auschwitzsoccerref.8582 My third cat was found just like this on was, except I was in a car, and the kitten was in the road. When I drove by, he went into a drainage ditch. I stopped the car and walked back. The kitten came running out to meet me, just like this one did. Are you sooooo jaded that all people are evil and only out to get to you any way that they can? You seriously need to find a hobby. I take my 3 cats for walks all of the time, and they do not act like this kitten. After I had the "new" kitten for a week, he was not so clingy, and enjoyed the walks just like the other two.

I love how most dog owners are like "Yeah my dog is this breed, we got him from a reputed breeder 😌" and cat owners are just like "So I was on this hiking trail, found this sucker by pure random chance, and.... we've been friends since!"
Very true
Right! My cat literally wandered onto my mom's boyfriends property as a kitten and almost got eaten by his dog. Then my mom saved him and brought him home to our place to try and find a home for him and he was just like nah I live here now. 3+ years laters he's a great cat, totally chose us lol
Is the same for one of my cats
Yup, that's how I got my cat too, 😆
it's a fact. I got the same issue. But she "jumb" in my sister arm in the street.
I rescued my baby girl from the streets as well. But deep down inside I feel she’s the one that saved me. My kitten is my everything.
Cats choose us man
It was the same for me. My cat Oreo was still young enough to be on milk and she was covered from head to toe in mud and fleas (and looked like a piece of rubber in the road) when I found her on the back roads. Unfortunately she passed away 3-30-20. Hopefully you can be with your little one for far longer than I was able to be with Oreo (black and white domestic shorthair tuxedo cat). It took a huge toll on me emotionally when she passed away (passed away in my arms 😢).
I have 4 rescues at home. A black cat who is now 10 but we found her at about 8 weeks old in a storm so her name is Stormy and triplet Russian Blues who I adopted from a woman giving them away at 6 weeks old. The plan was to find homes for all 3 of them but they were always together snuggling, playing, and sleeping. We assumed they would drift apart and even not like each other as they grew up but that wasn’t the case so the adoptions were cancelled and they are with me as well and are now 5 years old and their names are Smokey, Phoenix, and Ash who is nicknamed “the Pink Demon” because she has a neon pink collar and she is very loud. The triplets like to be on your lap or nugget with each other or with you when it’s bedtime.

That little ball of fluff has no idea how lucky they are to have found a hero like you. We've experienced our fair share of unexpected rescues, but this one takes the cake.

“He really tricked me back then.” Yeah, that’s what they do. Kittens are very smooth operators.

So sweet the way he was climbing you … the cat always chooses you
The cat chooses the masteR.
those who study cat lore know this
The wand chooses the wizard and the cat chooses the servant.
I love that you can tell this kitten how you cannot look after him, and he won't like living in the "big ugly city", and many other things to try and dissuade him, but he is clearly telling you "There's NO WAY you are leaving without me!" 🤣
I would guess he may have been abandoned as he's so sociable and already knew how to use the litterbox, and I doubt he would have survived for long in the wilderness on his own. So huge thanks to YOU for saving this little guy! 🙏 🙏 🙏
Kitty:
🎤"And I am telling you, I'm not going ..."
Nah that little mf would turn into a killing machine out there 😂

I love how much the lil’ guy is purring, and really loudly too. Clearly he’s happy and grateful that you came along!
Poor little thing - he was screaming a long time to get that hoarse. When the hiker asks, "Where's your Momma?" I'm thinking she's in the river - or at least his brothers and sisters are. It looks so chunky and healthy at the end of the video.
I can tell you from personal experience that cat's that choose and then bond with a person a young age are some of the best companions; as they grow they'll learn your mannerisms and develop their own unique personality based around on how you've raised them. My own cat was found in the dumpster of a restaurant I had worked at, and now nearly 10 years on he's still the best boy ever.
I hope nobody dumped him there, that'd be so evil
