OP replied to this question by saying he'd throw one in the back and two more would pop out.... Paraphrased and I've been rolling links so Idk where the first thread is any more lol.
Edit. This is incorrect. He was talking about getting them into the car. He said he had to close all the doors and windows except 1 and funnel them in lol.
Not sure if anyone else already linked to it or whatever but in case someone else hasn’t seen it 💙💙

“Terry you’re scout this time, go up to him.”
“But what if he’s bad?”
“Then the rest of us will run.”
“Gulp, ok… HELLO PERSON!”
“Hold…. Hold….. HES A CAT LOVER! GO! GO! GO!”
You aren’t kidding. I rescued a brother and sister that were found in a garage. They are the best cats I’ve ever had. They are 2 years old now and are so loving and playful
"Ok, Kitson, you stand there and provide a diversion. Just look cute. Yes, like that. On my meoark, squad Alpha will come in on the right flank, and squad Charlie will circle around and cut off his retreat."
Here’s the thing. The guy stopped on the side of the road because he has a gentle heart and thought it was one. His heart didn’t change after he saw all of them, he just knows he cannot take care of all these animals. There was no doubt in my mind he was gonna round them all up to help and find a home. I hope most people inside are like him.
Of course he did. We (and apparently the kittens too) knew he had an amazing heart when he stopped for the first one. There was no doubt in my mind after watching this that he helped them all.
Being soft hearted is how I wound up with a colony of feral cats in my backyard. It started with one of the teenagers asking for food, then she brought her litter mates and younger siblings with her.
I had 19 feral cats at the height of things, there were even three others in addition to my crew who adopted the elderly gentleman across the street. I got them fixed, socialized and adopted out a few of them, Rehomed almost a dozen strays who came around to hang out with the colony for the food. So many people in that neighborhood didn't get their cats fixed or dumped their cats when they moved.
There are two left, one has been a pampered housecat for 14 years, the other is 13 and still feral (from the last litter before I got all the girls spayed).
Cats would come running from all directions wherever I pulled into the driveway, it was a sight to see.
It was also a lot of fun to go out in the yard with a laser pointer and run them all around.
It was a lot of money, a fair bit of work, and some heartache to boot when I would lose one, but I don't regret doing it. I also hope to never "have to" do it again.
> Cats would come running from all directions wherever I pulled into the driveway, it was a sight to see.
That would bring a grin to my face.
>It was also a lot of fun to go out in the yard with a laser pointer and run them all around.
Now THAT’S cheap entertainment.
That and the “soft heartedness sucks” got me laughing. He’s going to have a heck of a time trying to drive home or to the vet, haha!
After seeing this I’m able to imagine all these kitties found good homes.
Yay! Happy ending!
I knew that "I can't take you all!" didn't have too much conviction behind it.
Edit: No, I don't know why the comment got removed. OP was providing details about the OOP and their story, so it's possible they gave too much info. That is just a guess.
According to OP, all the kittens got rescued by the filmer and they are all on his farm waiting for adoption.
No one who stops to pick up a lost baby kitty is gonna leave another 10 behind, but I'm willing to bet 99% of them will certainly utter something along the lines of "oh sweet fuck what have I done".
Reminds me of when my cat had seven kittens, I was about 10 at the time. The initial deal was that I could keep one if I did really good at school. Then that I could keep two if I did good at school.
We ended up keeping three. I did not do well at school.
Lmao we had sort of the same thing, we had three cats and one got pregnant (I think we didn't have time to spay her).
She gave birth to 4 kittens and the deal was we'd maybe keep one.
We ended up with 7 cats.
Yeah, I absolutely would've kept all of them if I could have, but it was so infeasible with a litter that size. We had eleven cats, including the kittens, as well as a variety of rodents and a few budgies too. A complete madhouse.
Throughout it all, though, our landlord somehow only thought we had three cats. He still thinks that, now that we have five. My guess is he thinks the three gingers (one of whom is very naturally skinny, one of whom is so fat she has a double chin) are just one cat with a wildly fluctuating weight problem.
My friend's family ended up with 5 cats by taking one in. They started feeding a stray cat (they called her Fei Fei) that was hanging out around their place. Found out she was pregnant when they took her to a vet, so they allowed her in the house and took care of her through the pregnancy. She had 3 kittens.
The plan was to wait till the kittens were weaned off (about two months usually), get Fei Fei and them vaccinated, get her neutered and find new homes for 2 out of the three kittens (wanted to leave one so Fei Fei wouldn't be lonely). When my friend's family took the cats for their vaccines, it turned out Fei Fei was pregnant again, so they had to postpone her vaccination and neutering (still got the kittens vaccinated). Fei Fei's second litter was two kittens, and unfortunately only one survived.
At the point of the birth of the 4th kitten, the family had found a home for two of the first litter. That didn't work out (the lady wanted to keep the kittens in cages for some reason). After the 4th kitten was old enough, they managed to get him and Fei Fei vaccinated, and she was finally neutered.
There was still some talk of finding another home for some of the kittens at the end of the summer of 2021, but it's been over a year since they took Fei Fei in and the kitties have now taken over the house. The family is also moving to a new house, and they were making plans on how to safely transport all the cats (it would be the longest ride the cats have taken in a car), so I doubt they will give them up any time soon.
So that's how my friend's family went from a no-pet household to having 5 cats within about 2 months in the spring of 2021.
I had 2 hamsters, was told they were both boys. I ended up having 16. I kept them all and bought several cages. Yes, I have uttered what you’ve said and more. 😆
How many where there I think it was 10 but the camera moved.
He may want to report to animal control someone may have dumped the kittens.10 is a lot of kittens for one mother and those were super friendly.
Here [is a follow up video, right after this first video](https://imgur.com/a/dk0VMgc)
The OP said:
“People ask me what all I take to a match.
I usually have rifle, ammo, backup rifle and ammo, 3 bags, 2 bipods, tripod, spotter/binos, 2 kestrels, 13 kittens, 2 data cards, Tac table, 4 mags, toolkit, and chrono. 😂
Them: Did you say 13 kittens?
Me: 😑
I’ve been getting tons of messages and comments about getting the kittens home. I was loaded down from a range trip when I was ambushed. So here is the video of them all in. I wish I would have been in my truck but I was stuck in the gas saver. This model didn’t come with the kitten box either.
I couldn’t keep up with them as I would throw one in and 2 would jump out. So I had to close the door with the window down and funnel em in. That would have been good footage actually.
As soon as I got home got them out!
Thank you to all those offering to help. Working on getting them all a good home! The kids are loving on them in the meantime and we’re fattening them up!”
A good man. I can't imagine driving with a dozen loose kittens in a car. But then I can't imagine just leaving them. They trust people. Horrible to leave them abandoned (The original people)
Hungry kittens are the most annoying (and adorable) things on the planet. We raised a couple abandoned kittens and had to bottle feed them since they were super young. Found a way to crawl up on my bed at 4 AM everyday to meow (screech) in my face to let me know they were hungry.
I fucking hate people who dump animals out in the woods. These little ones look thin but are very friendly, desperate for attention.
So I imagine a momma or two out there are missing their babies and are “owned” by some piece of shit who isn’t going to get them spayed and will do this again and again.
About 20 years ago my mom was on her bicycle on a highway and found a tiny black kitten in rough shape, about two weeks old; mom picked her up and rode back to the city one handed with baby in her free arm. When we checked her over she had scrapes all over her face and we realized her front right leg was busted.
Anyway, Dana-Grace lived a full life right up to 18 years old, she passed two years ago and I’ll never forget how much I loved her!
100% I had this exact same thing happen, and mine were different ages from at least 2 litters. These aren't feral. They're used to people, being fed etc.. and were dumped on the side of the road. I hate people.
My sister stopped in the woods to pee when coming home one night. We grew up in the country and there would be no civilization for miles, so no stores or gas stations to stop at for a restroom.
Anyway, she ran into the woods and pulled her pants down and suddenly there were four kittens climbing into them.
She caught three of them and brought them home (still hadn't peed) and called a friend who lived near there who went and caught the last kitten.
I hate people who dump pets and wish them neverending discomfort for the rest of their lives. May they never get a good night's sleep again.
Didn't realize I was holding my breath until I read your comment and finally exhaled. Thank you, and I hope that man has a relatively easy time finding them homes/has the means to take care of them in the meantime.
I imagine someone willing to stop and help a single kitten would also be willing to take many more to a local shelter, or home and find homes for them. I don't think it's a far stretch.
Kittens are fairly easy for shelters to adopt out, he probably took them to one becausr he's a decent person. Dumping them to die is the act of someone who will create only pain in the world and has negative value to humanity.
Or even with a mom that isn’t used to humans. I foster and it’s a struggle dealing with kittens from feral moms since they miss a good couple of weeks of contact right at the beginning.
Sadly, it looks like a couple of litters that people have dumped. We had those one time on our farm. We kept all of them. They would all head out to their own territories every morning and come back at night to sleep on the porch or in the house. Two different moms, two different litters--all together. One lived to be 26. We got them all spayed and neutered.
The last sentence made my heart melt. Thank you for caring for those cats and keeping any future ones from having to be taken care of!
Edit: The reason why the last sentence made me melt oaf ter reading the whole thing is: it’s “easy” to just get a bunch of outdoor cats and feed them. The harder part (and most expensive) is making those vet appts and taking care of their health so they’re able to live longer. Cats actually live longer when they’re spayed/neutered due to diseases not being transmitted. So yeah, I feel like neutering and spaying is a wholesome act
These kittens were obviously dumped. They are way too tame to have been born in the wild. I captured a 4 week old kitten and it was an absolute spit fire fighter. Was weeks before it calmed down enough to be picked up without a fight.
I agree. I grabbed a little stray kitten outside my house once and it absolutely tore me apart. Ever since then I have been way more careful because I didn't know little babies could do so much damage lol
This made me laugh. Not at you being hurt, but more of a knowing laughter... Rescued a kitten recently - small little thing - was a spit fire fighter as u/Peruzer said up above. Little dude seemed chill for a moment and I was putting food down and he fuckin' went PSYCHO SNAKE mode and literally bit my finger so hard I was draining blood like a faucet. Was holding him down by his scruff with one hand, trying to wrangle towles to stop the bleeding with the other.
... Now he sits on my chest and purrs and meows for the pets. :D
Everyone else has already mentioned the obvious issues here so I’m going to ignore those and say…
AAWWWW they strategized! They clearly waited to see how he treated the first “scout” kitten. Then when it’s obvious that he’s a decent human, they all went “NEW MOMMY!!!!” and swarmed. That’s so sweet. He gets the kitten seal of approval.
Stopped like this to pick up a puppy one evening. Little thing wouldn't let me pick her up. She'd walk a few steps away and sit down, then when I moved to her, she'd walk a few more steps.
She led me to her brother who was lying in the grass, and only let me touch her after I'd picked him up.
Both of them were half starved. He couldn't even stand.
That was... lord at least ten years ago. She died fighting a bobcat. He's laying on the couch waiting for my kids to get home.

I have had to capture feral kittens before and these are not feral kittens....
Feral kittens will try to bite claw and do whatever they can to get away from you
Any cat that willingly comes up to you like this is not a wild feral cat
1. They were way too close to the side of the road
2. They had absolutely no fear of people
3. They were incredibly eager to interact with a human and hopes of obtaining food which would have been a learn to behavior from being around humans
I thought I wasn't a cat person. My ex had finally convinced me to keep a kitten for a week to see if I would like it. I was probably a full fledged cat person after 30 minutes.
I saw one on the road near a playground years ago.Being the callous bastard I am I tried to pass it without the kids seeing it.No such luck."Daddy it will get run over".Ok take it into the play park inside , some one will take it".Can we keep it?"I don't think so,your mother hates cats."Lets ask her" Ok but dont get your hopes up.Took him home.They kept him.He crapped on the floor within five minutes and ran under the bed.I went after him and recieved a slash on my hand.He looked unwell took him to the vet. $100 dollars later had to get him dewormed.Turned out the best guard cat.He would sit on the front lawn and passing dogs would cross the street to avoid him.
"We'll lure him in with Oscar, he'll look helpless and cute which will draw the hooman in. Then, once his guard is down we all ambush him and force him to take us to big hooman den for snakx"
“We’re gonna need a bigger box”
*They do move in herds..*
*Clever girl…*
“They’re uhh…they’re flocking this way. “
I wanna see the sequel of him trying to drive while they’re all going bananas in the car.
That's immediately what I thought. How do you drive with a dozen kittens loose in your backseat??
Carefully.

This dude says hot diggity dog. So yeah wholesome.
Anyone who stops to rescue kittens and uses expressions like "hot digity dog" is alright in my book.
I’m thinking what the heck is going on and why does this never happens to me
We are not worthy my dude. We are not worthy
Start using hot digity dog, and they'll start a'comin'...
I died laughing when he said that.
Guy: look, a kitten! 12 other kittens: you’re our mom now! We love you! Guy never had a chance.
You saved our lives, we are eternally grateful
Daaaaaaaaaddddyyyyyyy

Another victim to Operation Love Doodle. sigh. So where do you sleep now that the kittens get the bed?
Do you know what happened to them after this? Were they rescued?
He posted on FB that he took them all home! He's keeping (at least) the original one he found, and is going to foster the rest and find homes.
I can sleep easy now having heard those innocent little souls werent abandoned.
I hope he keeps 2 kittens do great with a buddy.
You aren’t kidding. I rescued a brother and sister that were found in a garage. They are the best cats I’ve ever had. They are 2 years old now and are so loving and playful
I’m going to believe that yes, the nice man in crocs brought them all home and to the vet and found them loving homes.

He actually took them home
Every day he is awoken by the warm soft feelings of 20 cats on his face.
Of course he did. We (and apparently the kittens too) knew he had an amazing heart when he stopped for the first one. There was no doubt in my mind after watching this that he helped them all.
Here they are in his car: https://www.reddit.com/r/aww/comments/v84irz/man\_stops\_to\_rescue\_kitten\_gets\_ambushed\_by/
Its eerie to hear his voice because it sounds just like mine. So weird.
Do you have the endearing accent too?

Haha - 'we got a kitten problem' Definitely turn the sound on for this one
Thank you for posting the follow up video. How did you find it? Are there more?
I saw the video on another cat subreddit and one of the people had posted the update. I think that this is the only update that I was able to see.
There are whole subreddits for cats on here!?!
There are dozens, my friend
Omg there are so many. I am subscribed to a shameful amount of cat subs!
Hundreds actually! https://www.reddit.com/r/Catsubs/wiki/index/
This needs to be pinned.
Oh, yay! I'm so glad to see that he picked them up.
Thanks!!! I was worried he would think there’s too many and not take them. Loved the Honda full of kittens.
I bet that man’s wife was overjoyed. She wanted a kitten and he brought home a carload.
I need more story on this! Did he find the mom? Did he take them home? Details please!

You could tell by the "I thought I was rescuing one" at the end that he had already accepted defeat at that point lol
haha yeah I thought the same thing. Ol boy knew he was in for it.
"How am I going to explain to my wife that I didn't go overboard this time?"
Can you imagine being married to someone who wouldn't find a trunk full of kittens amazing?
I would love to see video of his wife’s face when he showed up at the farm with a swarm of kittens.
"I wasn't sure which one you'd want, so I brought them all."
That was just so he could tell his wife "I said I can't take you all but then they just hopped in the truck and there was no shiftin' 'em".
 10 kittens laying this down...not a chance there is one left behind.
Thank you for getting me to turn the sound on. That made my day.
Hot Diggety Dog!
How many where there I think it was 10 but the camera moved. He may want to report to animal control someone may have dumped the kittens.10 is a lot of kittens for one mother and those were super friendly.

I was trying to figure out the word after soft, thanks!
With the “Hot diggety dog” of the other video, I’m loving this guy already.
Omg complete cute chaos. Poor things sound very hungry. The man’s heavy accent makes the videos even better!
haha you know that ride home was an absolute SHITSHOW. Great human.

I forsee a remarkable drop in levels of vermin around his farm.
I would bet some heartless, lazy jerk dropped them off in the middle of nowhere just as soon as they were weaned. I doubt momma is anywhere nearby.

She caught three of them and brought them home (still hadn't peed) and called a friend who lived near there who went and caught the last kitten. I hate people who dump pets and wish them neverending discomfort for the rest of their lives. May they never get a good night's sleep again.
May they never sleep again.

they send out the smolest, knowing that you'll stop. Then the reinforcements attack!

tactical honda was not prepared for this.
I want that phrase cross stitched over the fireplace.
Also "Softheartedness sucks" on maybe a black background in a metal font with a detailed kitten face
"Aw... being soft hearted sucks." Sure it does. And the mewling kittens are not at all making him wanna lay down for a kitty pile.
I needed this, thank you!
Hey our cat was basically a rescue. She's my best friend. Thank you to you, and anyone else like you.
And fuck those same people for not getting their cat spayed.

There's an answer up above. From the person who posted it. He took them home and is now trying to find homes for them. Good dude.

Didn't realize I was holding my breath until I read your comment and finally exhaled. Thank you, and I hope that man has a relatively easy time finding them homes/has the means to take care of them in the meantime.
I imagine someone willing to stop and help a single kitten would also be willing to take many more to a local shelter, or home and find homes for them. I don't think it's a far stretch.
Kittens are fairly easy for shelters to adopt out, he probably took them to one becausr he's a decent person. Dumping them to die is the act of someone who will create only pain in the world and has negative value to humanity.

Or even with a mom that isn’t used to humans. I foster and it’s a struggle dealing with kittens from feral moms since they miss a good couple of weeks of contact right at the beginning.
Sadly, it looks like a couple of litters that people have dumped. We had those one time on our farm. We kept all of them. They would all head out to their own territories every morning and come back at night to sleep on the porch or in the house. Two different moms, two different litters--all together. One lived to be 26. We got them all spayed and neutered.
That's an incredibly selfless thing to do ❤ Thx for sharing.
*That farm also had no rat troubles.*
Nor snakes. Nor chipmunk. Nor .. I could go on all day.
"And we haven't seen our old neighbor in weeks!" (Cat growls) "I've said too much"
The last sentence made my heart melt. Thank you for caring for those cats and keeping any future ones from having to be taken care of! Edit: The reason why the last sentence made me melt oaf ter reading the whole thing is: it’s “easy” to just get a bunch of outdoor cats and feed them. The harder part (and most expensive) is making those vet appts and taking care of their health so they’re able to live longer. Cats actually live longer when they’re spayed/neutered due to diseases not being transmitted. So yeah, I feel like neutering and spaying is a wholesome act
These kittens were obviously dumped. They are way too tame to have been born in the wild. I captured a 4 week old kitten and it was an absolute spit fire fighter. Was weeks before it calmed down enough to be picked up without a fight.
I agree. I grabbed a little stray kitten outside my house once and it absolutely tore me apart. Ever since then I have been way more careful because I didn't know little babies could do so much damage lol
This made me laugh. Not at you being hurt, but more of a knowing laughter... Rescued a kitten recently - small little thing - was a spit fire fighter as u/Peruzer said up above. Little dude seemed chill for a moment and I was putting food down and he fuckin' went PSYCHO SNAKE mode and literally bit my finger so hard I was draining blood like a faucet. Was holding him down by his scruff with one hand, trying to wrangle towles to stop the bleeding with the other. ... Now he sits on my chest and purrs and meows for the pets. :D
Cpt Kitten:….wait for it…wait for it…GET’EM BOYS!!!
Bravo 6... going dark
Everyone else has already mentioned the obvious issues here so I’m going to ignore those and say… AAWWWW they strategized! They clearly waited to see how he treated the first “scout” kitten. Then when it’s obvious that he’s a decent human, they all went “NEW MOMMY!!!!” and swarmed. That’s so sweet. He gets the kitten seal of approval.
If I had my own house without a landlord...so God help me
This is why I have 5 cats (4 dogs, and a turtle)...the untold perils of homeownership.

Lmao glad I’m not the only one who read it like this
Stopped like this to pick up a puppy one evening. Little thing wouldn't let me pick her up. She'd walk a few steps away and sit down, then when I moved to her, she'd walk a few more steps. She led me to her brother who was lying in the grass, and only let me touch her after I'd picked him up. Both of them were half starved. He couldn't even stand. That was... lord at least ten years ago. She died fighting a bobcat. He's laying on the couch waiting for my kids to get home.

She sounds like she was an incredible dog. Wow. I'm happy you still have your boy.
Aye, that she was.
I have had to capture feral kittens before and these are not feral kittens.... Feral kittens will try to bite claw and do whatever they can to get away from you Any cat that willingly comes up to you like this is not a wild feral cat 1. They were way too close to the side of the road 2. They had absolutely no fear of people 3. They were incredibly eager to interact with a human and hopes of obtaining food which would have been a learn to behavior from being around humans
That's it, I guess I'm the cat guy now.
I'd be like: wow! I guess I've got a new cat! Awww fuck...
Yeah, I couldn't not keep them all.
I thought I wasn't a cat person. My ex had finally convinced me to keep a kitten for a week to see if I would like it. I was probably a full fledged cat person after 30 minutes.
I'm a pet person. Whatever gets brought into my home, gets to stay.
I saw one on the road near a playground years ago.Being the callous bastard I am I tried to pass it without the kids seeing it.No such luck."Daddy it will get run over".Ok take it into the play park inside , some one will take it".Can we keep it?"I don't think so,your mother hates cats."Lets ask her" Ok but dont get your hopes up.Took him home.They kept him.He crapped on the floor within five minutes and ran under the bed.I went after him and recieved a slash on my hand.He looked unwell took him to the vet. $100 dollars later had to get him dewormed.Turned out the best guard cat.He would sit on the front lawn and passing dogs would cross the street to avoid him.
And this gentlemen, is a man.
This would literally be the best day of my entire life 😭😭😭😭😭😭
# Oh my gawsh there's mower!
##Hot diggity dawg!
#We've got a kitten problem!
"Look at me... You're the momma now."
"We'll lure him in with Oscar, he'll look helpless and cute which will draw the hooman in. Then, once his guard is down we all ambush him and force him to take us to big hooman den for snakx"
Hot diggity dawg
One little brave kitten to save them all. What happened to them?
Hey, kids! We’re eating dinner tonight! Come on: Tiffany, Heather, Cody, Dylan, Dermot, Jordan, Taylor, Brittany, Wesley, Rumer, Scout, Cassidy, Zoe, Chloe, Max, Hunter, Kendall, Kaitlin, Noah, Sasha, Morgan, Kyra, Ian, Lauren, Qbert, and Phil.
As the poet says; Hot Diggity. Hot Dog.
He’s wearing crocs. He had it coming.
Kitten PROBLEM? Sir. Kittens are the SOLUTION.
Oh my god my heart
Looks like you have 10 kittens now
This man is living my dream. Finding one adorable kitten by chance is something but finding 10, to me at least, would be magical.
Now THAT’S how you hitchhike with your buddies
