Cornfields potties Eden's kittens and then kitnaps one

- Опубліковано 24 сер 2023
- For now, Cornfields is having sleepovers in another room and joining Eden and the babies during the day when we're able to monitor his helpfulness, playfulness and enthusiasm for the kittens. Once they're bigger, and he's better able to contain his excitement, we will adjust the plan.
AUG 24, 2023: Eden gave birth early this morning to four beautiful kittens. Her fourth kitten, Erela, was born feisty and strong, but also with severe, unsurvivable craniofacial abnormalities. We wanted so badly to give her a chance to experience life, but her veterinary team let us know the kindest thing we could do for her was to help her cross the Bridge as gently as possible. Mom and the three surviving kittens are doing great. Names: Shaw (classic tabby tuxie girl), Sierra (lighter mackerel tabby tuxie girl), Snowberry (tuxie boy).
AUG 21 2023: Pregnant formerly feral mama Eden started to show signs of pre-labor, so we are officially on #KittenWatch! She has type A blood, and is accompanied by her BFF/birthing coach, Cornfields. Eden and Cornfields are from our Bramble colony, where we have catalogued 170+ cats: TinyKittens.com/bramble

JUL 15 2023: Four Bramble kittens have joined El Paso as he continues to recover from major surgery to repair his palate and remove a pellet that was lodged under his tongue.
MAY 2, 2023: After 8 days in the hospital, Scotia came home and was reunited with her kittens! She is on a variety of medications and requires daily bandage changes. The kittens will be bottle fed for the duration.
APR 28, 2023: As feared, Orinda's kittens did get ringworm from their mom, so we had to relocate them and begin intensive containment and treatment protocol. You can still watch them LIVE: • LIVE: Hoshi and her ki...
APR 25 2023: Scotia developed acute mastitis and a very high fever overnight, and her fever did not respond to the usual treatment protocol. She has been admitted to the specialty hospital for intensive care, and her kittens have moved into the incubator and are being fed every 2-4 hours.

Cornfields and Eden are so precious together. I think it fascinating to see the co-parenting. It is a side of cats rarely seen.
Cornfields seems fascinated by the kittens. He's like a reincarnation of Grandpa Mason.
Now that is great way to look at it. I never thought about it to look like that. I also miss Grampa Mason too. He was full of Grandpa love for kittens.😺❤️🙏❌⭕️
Mason 🩵
An Uncle Cornfields perhaps? Because there's only a ONE Grandpa Mason. Look forward to seeing Uncle Cornfields making his mark at TKHQ.
Corny is such a doll! He's going to have so much fun with the kittens when they're a little older and they can play with him.
Cornfields is such a loving boy, he likes to be part of the action. It’s interesting to see his behaviour and I’m not sure why some people are not comprehending that he’s closely monitored for safety. ❤
The one who really closely monitors the kitties is mama herself. You can see the concern. Which is normal for all mama kitties to have. But you can tell she doesn't feel her kitties are in real danger. If she did, her claws would be ready. I think this is an amazing relationship between these two cats. I'm not sure why some people don't get it. But maybe with more videos like this, it can bring a better understanding, hopefully.
TK does such a wonderful job on taking care of the kitties as well as educating us on proper health/behavior care.
@@cheryleann6394 Tiny Kittens is wonderful in every way.
I think it's great that the staff sit back and study and observe behavior and interactions between cats who obviously get along regardless of any given situation. It's a good way to debunk all the troublesome myths that people tend to cling to and become stressed about. 😊
Loved your comment and I think you are spot on with your thoughts and feelings. God bless friend. Sue M. Florida,USA 😺🙏😺😊❌⭕️
Agree. When you have watched cats for as long as Shelly and Co. have, they can spot troublesome behavior and intervene quickly, but otherwise let things happen.
@@hectorsmommy1717 Totally agree with you on your comment. Shelly and Company are so amazing with the ferals and know just when to intervene too when it is needed. I’ve learn so much about feral cats from a Shelly and I have to say that feral cats are just as special and important as a domesticated cat and an outside cat that will accept humans. I just love cats period.😺😊🥰❤️🙏❌⭕️
This is NOT funny. Most orange cats are male. Male cats will take newborn kittens. They are like mice to them. Not good.
So cute. Eden trusts Cornfields but she goes into protective mode when the little ones complain. She has her mama priorities straight! When the babies are a bit bigger they'll be happy to have an uncle to play with.
He just wants to participate. 😊 You can see how much they adore each other. He will be so fun with them when they’re older. ❤
Remember, folks, if Shelly or any of her helpers feel like Corny is going to hurt the kittens, they'll swoop in, scoop him up, and put him in a different room. You saw the quick response to him taking the kitten out of the COS. Remember also that he has been neutered, and therefore has lost the source of some if not all of any aggressive behavior he might have had. Eden seems ok with him helping, but if she shows signs of distress due to Corny's behavior, they'll relocate him. 😊
He's an adorable boy who seems to love Eden. Whether he was/is a mate, a sibling, or just a loyal best friend, they overall seem good together and he doesn't seem to have a will to purposefully hurt Eden or her babies. 💜💙
And to add to what you said, TK has chat moderators keeping an eye out on the rooms. They can contact Shelly if needed (as has been done before).
Also if Eden felt like Cornfield was a threat to her kittens he wouldn’t be allowed in the nest like he is.
He just likes poop! 😂😂
Cornfields is such a sweet boy ❤ he didn’t hurt Snowberry and he had no intention to hurt him. I think he just wanted to have a little one of his own, and to help mama Eden out ❤️
It’s obvious that Eden trusts him with her babies. It’s a beautiful relationship they have 🐈❤️🐈⬛
OM you can read a cats mind? "Toms" are known to sometimes kill offspring
I love the communication between the two adult cats. at 4:18 when Corny does something the kitten doesn't like and the kitten squeeks how mama Eden instantly goes in and says "ok ok, thats enough" with her body language and gives him a stern look and he instantly backs off. (for now)
It's also quite sweet that you can see him pause to look at Eden around 10:13 when he's picking Snowberry up. He's being very respectful towards her when it comes to the kittens.
I know right? I really love watching the 'unspoken' communication between cats. 😊👍
Its amazing. Male cats can be daddys too. He obviously knows how to "potty" them.
But he can’t feed newborns!
@@shirleybleazard8049 NOT MY POINT STRANGER. I think everyone with a brain knows that.
He loves poop!😅
@@clayrains3496 lol 😆
What a good boy to help his best girl 🐈⬛️💗
It’s not unrare for a male cat to help out either their girlfriend or just a friend that they truly do care about. He was being careful and gentle too so, he was just helping about. He is so sweet and caring towards Eden and her babies too which is so heartwarming too. God bless Eden, Cornfields, and the babies too.🙏🥰😺😺❤️😊❌⭕️❌⭕️
The cuteness never ends. Cornfields is definitely giving off Grandpa Mason and the Yurt vibes! 🐾🐾😻
She knew her baby was in safe paws with him. She was purring and making biscuits.
Awe Corny wait a couple weeks buddy. Eden doesn't seem too bothered to fuss at him at least.
I went through this so much with one of my boys who kept helping momma move them to my bed whenever he felt like she needed a break of course she didn't mind lol
I didn’t know male cats knew how to potty kittens! He’s such a well-meaning dadcat. 🥰
Being feral, kitten poop is something to eat. Unless of course he's a 'funny' uncle 😂😂
Cornfield reminds me of Grandpa Mason with his kittens and carrying them to his yurt 🛖
I don't know if I could say I have a favorite of all the kittens/cats at TK throughout the years even when there have been couples but Eden and Cornfield are at the very top of the list. Cornfields kitnapping and his reactions to "the vent people" are events that I have clear memories of. I loved watching them everyday and all the antics Cornfield would get into even though Eden did keep him in line!!😂😂 I am so happy they were adopted together in an forever inside home. It's the perfect story for what you do everyday.
That's one of the cutest things I've ever seen. "No fair! Why doez Eden getz ALL deh kiddens and I gotz none? I takez dis kidden for ME"
I hope that eventually Cornfields and Eden are adopted together! Love watching how attentive he is to the kittens and Eden!❤
That is hilarious. He really really REALLY wanted to help!
What an endearing boy, can't wait for Cornfield and Eden to live their lives as pampered house cats once him and Eden raise her final litter.
Corny just wants to protect them. Shelly mentioned how many of the Bramble males are protective of the kittens, hence his field trips at night. Don't worry Corny, Eden and the kits are under the best protection at TKHQ!
Absolutely! I wonder if he's trying to move them to the hut where Eden gave birth, since they both seem to view it as "safer" than COS?
Considering the low survival rate of feral kittens due to illness like ringworm, or lice/mites or whatever else hits them due to their low immune system, it sounds like males at Bramble have figured out they need to help the little ones out if they can. This nanny-type behaviour of Cornfield as a feral intact male is fascinating though.
@remyb8887 Cornfields has been neutered.
@@remyb8887But being feral, I'm wondering if they eat the sick ones or the ones that aren't thriving or that die.
4:15 Mama flies to the rescue!
Eden says, "Thanks but no thanks"
what a good boy and good daddy
Oh good grief people, relax. Cornfields is just being a friend to Eden and just wants to interact with the new living "things" wiggling around in there with them. They are monitored closely. Its just inquisitive interaction. ❤
Nobody is excited, except Mr Cornfields and you will have to talk to him .. he is trying to wash the stripes and color right off the kittens😅😅😅
@@pam-cl5qfHe loves kitten poop!😂
The minute one cried too loud during the attemped kit-napping Eden was all over it!
I also see that he was being temporarily removed...😹😹
I think TK should do an animal behavior study. Do male cats instinctively know this should be done or did he see her do it? There is so much to learn from these two and other precious kittehs/moms/doulas/assistants behaviors. What a fun job that would be. She also moves out of the way to show him the kittehs and blocks him when needed. But she doesn’t hiss or get upset. I absolutely love these 2 and they love each other so much.
I have anecdotal personal experience that says male cats know it instinctively. But it's just my own experience.
Eden is such a sweet mama. She was definitely responding whenever the babies were in distress. The only reason he got away with that yoink was because Snowberry was so quiet.
That was too cute what a personality he even stopped at the milkbar briefly😆
That's gross. He has no business at the milkbar. He is a bit opportunistic when it comes to that and kitten butts.
❤❤❤ such a good daddy and partner. So precious,even cleaning her.😊😊
Loving this cat partnership! Logical precaution to maintain observation with Cornfields. Kittens can mount their revenge when they get bigger!
The 1st litter of stray kittens I fostered....the Dadcat would come and sit on my patio ...wanting 2 see them....😁
This was so interesting! He seems to be pretty experienced in helping Eden with her babies. So nice that in this situation there are volunteers near to step in when he's a little too helpful. Looking forward to watching his interaction with them as they get bigger and are more fun to play with.
Mmmm ..... ! Friday evening Cornfields think it is time to take Snowberry on a boy's night out! Aaaw buddy you will have to wait a few more weeks!
Corndog you are adorable! 😉
...and with this motion picture, Aura just won the Oscar for best cinematography 🎉🎬 great angles 👏
He is going to be so much fun to watch as they grow!!!
What a sweetheart! I wonder if he has helped Eden with previous litters
I've wondered that too. She's so comfortable with him participating and gently lets him know when its a bit too much. She didn't even seem to mind him stealing one 😂
I disagree I find his behavior is strange and momma is trying to shield her babies. Obsessed with their butts.
@@magicmarker7047 If you watch the stream enough times, you'll see him potty the babies. And the title of this video indicates that.
@@nycfeatmy understanding is that they cannot eliminate urine or faeces without stimulation, and in fact orphan kittens need a rescuer to assist them. I think the person posting may not have much experience with cats.
@@magicmarker7047He is pottying them, the way their Mama does.
I must admit this made me clutch my pearls because these babies are so fragile at this stage...I know he means well but I so enjoyed Eden's reactions and how sweet she was protecting her littles yet gentle with Corny.
Corny is a sweetheart and I'm praying Eden and Cornfields will live together for the rest of their lives.
It will be interesting to watch Corny and the kittens as they grow ...
This gal has been blessed with many kitties in her 72 years and I've learned and continue to learn so much from TK, Shelly and the Tiny Kittens Village of wonderful people.
So glad I found TK !❤
He’s determined to get all the little bottoms cleaned! So cute. ❤
Aww 🥰 He reminds me of Wesley co-parent Buttercup’s litter!
That’s what friends are for. Just giving his friend a little break and helping out with potty duties. He even tries to nurse.
I grew up with cats and I never seen a male cat so lovey towards kittens & momma cat.
Reminded me of the time Felicity started hiding her kittens. Shelly came in one day while F. was preparing to jump over the wall with a kitten in her mouth. F dropped it immediately, and as Shelly was telling her to leave kittens in the next, I swear, F. looked at her like "Kitten? What kitten? I wasn't moving anyone."
Oh so cute!!!! ❤❤❤😊😊😊
Looked to me like he thought mama could use a break so he decided to babysit for a while. I’m sure if staff weren’t quite as on the ball and the kitten got upset, mama would be straight out there to bring it back to the nest. Such a cute pair and I hope they can find a home together when the time comes.
This might be an issue out there in the wild, but they are in a nice warm place with many eyes watching.
It’s fascinating.
The kidnapping part is so cute! He wants one of his own
I wouldn't trust him taking one away.
2:45 the head butts 🥰
Eden let’s Mr. Cornfield know when enough is enough… he’s just so fascinated with the new arrivals & luvs his Eden 🩷
Cornfield: "Oh hai kits, I'm your Uncle Corny. I better potty you while your Mom's away."
Very grateful that corny gets supervised
He finally succeeded. He’s been trying to steal a kitten for himself from the beginning. 😂
Prople need to look at this a bit more like a five year old child and their newborn siblings. The five year old is enthusiatic, wants to help, wants to play, like the babies... sometimes a little misguided because the 5 year old doesn't kniw how fragile the babies are, but ultimately loving.
Sweet adorable kitties
Aww, he started off very gentle, but got a little too fixated on cleaning the babies! I have an older orange gentleman who desperately wants to clean our younger cat, but he gets too into it and licks aggressively and nips. She lets him know when it's too much, but some days it's like he is obsessed, just like this. Then he gets a time out.
very slick Corny didn't realize till I only saw two and then saw the snuggler come in
Lol, Cornfields.. you silly boy! Watching this live, I could not believe what I was seeing 😂! “Eden, I’m just gonna borrow this one for a little bit!” 😂
Of my time watching TK, Cornfields has to be one of the funniest cats I’ve seen on here. He’s up there with Chapel and Cupcake. Cupcake tried to steal kittens from the CoS too, and Chapel just tried to steal the fuudz!
Eden didn't seem worried at all when he kitnapped the tuxie.
I adore Corn. Hes the absolute cutest 😊😊 You can see they have the bestest friendship. I love this ❤❤
Mama protects when he gets out of hand MOM gets in between them
Bless your heart, Uncle Cornfields!
Eden is able to protect her kittens if she sees a threat from Corn, as she did in the video, showing with her eyes that you should not lick and bite so aggressively)
Eden is capable of stopping Cornfields if she wants to.
He was in with her when she was having them trying to take one as a newly born kitten. He seemed to be interested mostly in the baby Erela.
Clowder kitten raising.
hilarious look on his face when he finally nabbed one
Unusual behavior for a male cat! What a dolly he is! I'd watch that he doesn't "wash" their little behind until they get sore though! Ouch! I've had more than one kitten that's had to be separated from the litter once in a while, for something similar! 😂
That is interesting, I did not know that could happen, thank you for that information. I have only ever adopted older, desexed cats or kittens.
I had one litter with 4 of 5 being buttsuckers. Each one had to have his/her own enclosure. most grew out of it by the time they were weaned but one kept doing it so he had to stay separate and even needed to be adopted into a home with adult cats who wouldn't put up with it. They had plenty of supervised playtime together and he was in a crate that was right next to the kitten enclosure so they could still interact, just with bars between them.
It looks like he kitnapped Snowberry for some boy time! 😂
It's extra funny that he took the only male kitten. Like he decided Snowberry needed some man time😂
This so reminds me of Chlomona without the kitnapping part. We have to remember that in their natural environment moving kits is very normal.
Thank you, I was looking to see if anyone remembered Chlomona. I certainly do! I feel so lucky that I was able to witness those amazing moments with those two. I fell in love with Chloe!!! ❤ Sorry, I've lost track. Do we have an update on Chloe and Ramona?
Beautiful babies!!😻😻😻😻😻
Wonderful so cute 🥰
Lovely family ❤😊
He seems to be a good boy.
dis one mine!
I wonder how many times he's done this with her kittens before?
Fascinating behavior.
He certainly takes his job seriously!
Corny: I’m alleviating your motherly pressures!
Eden: BRING. BACK. MY. KITTEN.
Corny: But, no! I’m ALLEVIATING your-
Eden: BRINGBACKMYKITTEN!!!!!
Love this!
Cornfield I love you! 💕
Kitnaps , I love it
Gives new meaning to trying to score brownie points. 😂
Well that little stinkpot...
LOL. He tried to kitnap that babe!
'Okay, you do it, I'm tired, I'm just gonna nap right... here......' 😺
Good job carnfields ❤
This is so amazing to see! Im also confused b/c when she goes/went into heat in the wild wouldn't Cornfeilds want to mate w/her? Anyway LOVR their friendship🤗🤗🤗
In hindsight, of course Shaw was the one being so noisy! Her woes at tube feeding time rival Ivan and she's not even four weeks old yet, lol. Based on Corny's extended visit today (with unsupervised time), he does seem to have decided he's an expert potty-er!
She’s like,..Dude, stop helping….Your not helping!❗️
He grooming them so well, he got Mama grooming herself
Luv Dis ❤️ ❤
Corny is bored and wants to help.
And Eden says my babies
Is Cornfields the father? Or he has been a helper on the previous litters too, very interesting hope he knows what he’s doing they seemed to be happy together. 🥰❤️🙏🏼
There's a slight chance he's the father of one, but it's very slim. The volunteers have said they saw Eden with several boyfriends before taking her in (tuxies and tabbies, like the babies) but she seems to have a platonic relationship with Cornfields.
Eden seems to treat Cornfields like a younger brother
This amazing. I am not familiar with Grandpa Mason that someone else posted. But in any event, this is such an educational scenario.
How cute
I don't think Cornfield would harm the babies but it does stress moma a bit maybe he needs a field trip until they are a tad bit older?
🐱: I cant get anything done with you here. Im taking Liquorice...*yoink
Mama: UM uh oh...ok.
Wow! That was stealthy, Cornfields! A scoop and run!
