When protecting their kittens, kitty queens can be quite fierce. Ask any of the cat foster families who’ve housed stray and feral mamas. They’ll tell you these wild mothers are some of the spiciest creatures you’ll ever encounter. But once many wild mama cats learn they aren’t in the thick of motherhood alone, that they’ve got a trusting and loving set of hands to help them raise their babies to happy, healthy, well-adjusted kittens, their feelings often soften where their foster moms and dads are concerned.

We’re talking puddles left on shirts and spots where he finds happiness

Kittens are curious little beings, driven by the urge to know everything about everyone and everything that comes on their turf. And while some littles might hide away and take in facts from afar, some of the bolder kittens will meet the unknown head-on and aren’t afraid to get paws involved too! Young Miro is a gray tiger kitten of the bold variety, and when a strange newcomer showed up on his porch, he wasn’t afraid to pounce right in and introduce himself. And Miro’s dad was right there to catch the meeting on camera so we can delight in the kitten and his fawn friend! YouTube Spotted Stranger Is Too Cute Not To Touch Spying a spotted stranger, little Miro is oh-so-curious about the fawn lying on his front porch, he has to go over and give the baby a sniff. And when the young fawn doesn’t move, Miro then goes in for a different kind of inspection, bounding off the porch to touch the deer and sniff its soft ears. But because the fawn is just a couple of days old, it’s not sure
