Tiny Foster Kitten Delivers the Cutest Attitude While Demanding 'Snackies'
A small foster kitten proves that even when you're little, you can still use your loud voice, which he uses to demand snacks.
On April 24, 2024, TikTok user Wasabi Sushi Matcha (@wasabisushimatcha) shared a video of a very cute little kitten named Tato, and the funny way he demands his food. Take a look!
In a short but hilarious 43-second video, we meet Tato, a small foster kitten with bright orange fur and a really funny way to get his human's attention.
We catch up with the kittens when it's almost mealtime, and the orange kitten has a lot to say.
The video was taken in the kitchen, right around the time the kittens usually eat their meal. And don't let the kitten's size fool you because his loud voice totally overpowers his small size. He knows how to use his voice by yelling at his humans to get them to prepare his food faster.
But sometimes, Tato is surprised by his voice, and it can get a little out of control.
During one of his screams to his human, Tato lost his balance and did a funny "potato rol; before getting back up and continuing to yell.
In the comment section, people enjoyed the meow and had their own giggles.
"A floof with attitude. I'm here for it," one person wrote.
"Tato's inside voice is the crispiest screams, I mean meows," someone else explained.
"Gimme the orange unmannered orange Tato," someone else added. "I want to give him [a] kiss."
How Much Food Should a Kitten Have in One Day?
According to bechewy, when a kitten is around 8 weeks old, they can eat and drink on their own, and they can start eating dry food soaked in warm water to make it easier for them to chew.
The site explains, "Most 8-week-old kittens weigh around 2 pounds, which means they should be taking in, on average, 162 kilocalories per day."
When a kitten is between 8 weeks and 10 months old, they're really going through a big growth spurt, which means they'll need more tailored food plans based on their weight since different breeds grow differently.
In addition to feeding kittens based on weight, they will also need to be exposed to different food textures.
"Early in life, cats develop strong preferences for how food should taste and what it should feel like in their mouths," bechewy explains.
"Offer your kitten a variety of foods (for example, dry, wet, and different flavors and shapes) if you want to keep all your options open. However, you’ll have to keep exposing them to a variety of foods as an adult if you want to avoid food rejection in the future.
Thankfully, Tato's foster parents won't have to wonder if their cat is hungry because he ha sno problem telling them he is.
