Cat Wants to Sleep Next to Newborn in Heartwarming Video – CatTime
Trying to keep a nursery off-limits is basically impossible when the resident feline decides he’s the primary caregiver. Chase is a massive star over at @dontstopmeowing, and he’s taking his big brother duties way too seriously. This video captures the cat perched on a nightstand before he executes a very deliberate move into the baby’s bassinet. The cat is just trying to get close to the newborn baby. He walks so gently, and he doesn’t even care about the house rules. Chase just wants to sniff his new human sibling and take a long nap right next to her.
Cat wants to sleep in baby’s bassinet in cute video
The video shows the cat walking right up to the baby’s face for a quick sniff. Satisfied with the inspection, he just flops down along the length of the infant. The mom is filming, and she can’t stop giggling at what’s going on. Chase just looks at the camera like he’s the one being weird.
His tail is swishing because he is genuinely happy. But the owner has to remind him that this isn’t his bed, which leads him to let out this tiny, whiney meow when she tries to physically move him. Chase really does not want to go.
Mom says he can’t just sit in there, but Chase is persistent. He is a very determined cat. One viewer even noted that his meow was super quiet, like he was trying not to wake the baby up. Mom eventually has to let things be as they are for the moment. The clip cuts to later, and Chase is fast asleep in the bassinet with one arm draped over the infant’s belly. It’s the sweetest thing ever caught on video.
“It’s his baby now,” the caption says, and the internet is obsessed. Over 80,000 people have liked the post already. People in the comments are calling him the protector of the house. Someone even mentioned the scene needs to be a painting. He is just babysitting for Fifi and Kareem, who know a thing or two about raising gentle, sensitive cats, and Chase seems to have it under control.
