A cat in Turkey melted hearts after walking into a hospital carrying her new-born kitten in her mouth seeking medical help.

Video footage recorded in a hospital in the Karabaglar district in Izmir, Turkey, showed the cat walking into the hospital with its kitten clutched in its mouth.

People in the video can be seen stepping aside to allow the mother cat through the building, with some telling other people to move out of the way.

So we are supposed to believe that animals know what a hospital is and what is good for them?

We had a feral mother cat leave her feral kitten on our deck; mother cat told kitten to remain there on deck. We were able to catch the kitten from behind with a fishing net. The kitten had a bot fly in its nose and was dying.

We took to vet and he pulled bot fly out, and we returned it to the mother. Kitten grew up but always remained feral. So did the mother. One of the kittens was deaf (they were all solid white except for the black mother). We were able to catch the deaf kitten with ease ... did not run from us at all. He grew up as a house cat and we named him Dandy

Yes, but you’ll notice the cat is a FluBra. No mask.

Spent some time in Turkey in the 60’s. in incoming briefings your kids were warned of the dangers of all the feral cats. Mohammad all but Deified cats and the saying is “If you kill a cat, you need to build a mosque to be forgiven by God.”

Very kind of you. It is a joy to watch the instinctual care a mother cat gives her kittens. Then you hear about live birth abortions and it makes you puke that some women could or would be under such “stress”(whatever the cause) that she would “choose” to see her child dead.
Even the animals usually treat their mothers and their young better.

We’re you in S America? Or has the bot fly been imported?

A feral cat has to know every part of its territory. I think it’s plausible that an adult cat could incorporate “sick things go into this building” into its mental map.

Bot flies are in the US. I once found a mouse dying with a bot fly larva attached.
