Cats are often seen as beloved pets, but Erin Moore's experience with a young foster cat named Gossip serves as a reminder of their natural instincts. Gossip, pregnant at just 10 to 11 months old, faced health issues after giving birth to three kittens. Despite treatment, one kitten sadly fell victim to filial cannibalism, a behavior seen in various species. Moore, understanding the situation, allowed her experienced cat to nurse the surviving kitten. Gossip, now recovering, highlights the importance of early spaying and neutering to prevent such challenges.
