The ongoing battle between cats and dogs have been going on since the time humans began to domesticate animals. Dogs are known as man’s best friend, while cats are known as…. let’s just say Man’s best acquaintance. Dogs pretty much show unconditional love to their humans and family. Cats pretty much do whatever the heck they want to do, whenever they want to do it!
Which brings us to today’s amazing story which takes place in Maysville, South Carolina, featuring both canines and a feline. One morning a lady looked out and saw a cat carrying a small animal by the scruff its neck. The first thing that came to her mind was, wow that kitty just caught a nice breakfast and she felt a little bad for the small creature. She kept her on the cat as it traveled with the small animal in it’s mouth and to her surprise, the cat didn’t seem like it was about to eat a snack, it seemed more motherly and gentle. She was intrigued, got a little closer and realized this was no squirrel or chipmunk it was a puppy!
Missy Grant a resident of Maysville, South Carolina had a female dog that had just given birth to a litter of puppies. Missy arrived back at her place one evening, and she quickly realized 5 of the tiny puppies had vanished into thin air! They were too young to run away she thought. Could a hawk or eagle have snatched them up? Maybe it was a neighbor who saw the puppies and decided to steal them and make a quick buck by selling them? Could they just be hiding somewhere right in front of her eyes? She didn’t know but she immediately started a search party.
She began asking neighbors if they saw her heard anything because the puppies had magically disappeared. When she got to the woman’s house who initially saw the cat carrying the small mammal by the scruff; the woman quickly realized that the cat she saw was stealing Missy’s puppies! She told Missy how she watched the cat gently pick up each puppy one by one and bring them to a random shed or trailer where she could do whatever she wanted with the puppies out of view of any spectators.
Then as they began piecing all the missing parts together, they found the cat’s owner Ryan Grant who informed Missy that their cat was recently pregnant, gave birth to kittens but tragically none of them survived. They told Missy that cat had been pretty depressed and acting strange since she lost all her babies.
The mother of the puppies, Smoochie, had simultaneously just given birth to her litter at the same time, Miss Kitty lost her babies. For some strange reason Smoochie, had no interest in her puppies and her motherly instincts just weren’t there. This does happen, although not very often, dogs and cats both sometimes have a litter and basically just have no interest in raising them or just abandon them.
So, when Miss Kitty saw that Smoochie wasn’t nurturing and taking care of her puppies, the feline’s motherly instincts which were already surfaced, had kicked into full gear. Miss Kitty would travel over to Smoochie’s property and just pick the puppies up and take them to a safe shed. Smoochie would watch and just let it happen because she had no interest and being a mom. Miss Kitty had been pregnant just a short time before the puppies were born, so she had milk to spare.
When they went to the shed where Miss Kitty was bringing the tiny canines, they saw that she had remarkably been nursing them, just as if they were her kitten! The dog Smoochie was totally fine with Miss Kitty becoming their adopted mom and basically handed over all responsibility to the motherly feline.
