Cats are still stereotyped as overly independent and aloof, yet many felines<\/a> are extremely loving and affectionate. While they may need some space at times, cats enjoy socializing and thrive around other people and pets.<\/p>\n

Boots the black cat<\/a> is a wonderful example of feline compassion and empathy, and recently took it upon himself to comfort two newborn lambs who were shivering in the cold weather.<\/p>\n

In the Instagram video from @redfalconranch, Boots hovered over two baby lambs in a low-lit barn. Apparently, the pretty kitty was trying to help out mama lamb Adelaide.<\/p>\n

“Last Saturday, Adelaide gave birth at midnight to healthy twins, Yvonne and Rozhay,” the caption explained. “It was one of the coldest nights of the year with temps in the teens. Hence the sweaters.”<\/p>\n

Boots sensed the vulnerability of the newborn lambs and knew they needed some comfort. He quickly stepped up to give Adelaide some time for a snack.<\/p>\n

“As soon as Bootsie knew there were new babies, he quickly found his way into the kidding stall,” the story continued. “And while Mama Adelaide was distracted eating grain, Boots jumped at the opportunity to give the little ones some kisses.”<\/p>\n

Boots Has a Heart of Gold<\/p>\n

The beautiful black cat is known as a total love bug. After a bit of a rough start in life, Boots blossomed when he finally landed in his forever home and shows his gratitude on a regular basis.<\/p>\n

“Boots is one of the most loveable cats I\u2019ve ever met,” the caption gushed. “From being passed around as a kitten at the fairgrounds, to ending up at our neighbors, who also didn\u2019t want him, to finally finding his forever home with us. And yet through all that\u2026he never lost his spark.”<\/p>\n

The feline fur baby also has a soft spot for baby lambs and sticks close by during kidding seasons to lend a paw.<\/p>\n

“He loves everyone he meets and especially loves kidding seasons,” the text read. “In fact, if the mama allows it, you\u2019ll often find him curled up with the kids underneath the heat lamp. He loves snuggles, and I think the kids do too.”<\/p>\n

The post concluded with a loving shout out to the very special kitty.<\/p>\n

“Love you, Bootsie!! So glad you came into our life.”<\/p>\n
