There might be a portal inside London-based filmmaker Paris Zarcilla’s room. That or cats are incredibly sneaky creatures. Whatever the reason is, Paris cares mostly about the outcome of this story. When he recently went to his room to grab a sweater, he found a stray cat instead. A cute animal he didn’t own or know. And that was only one-fifth of the surprise.

“I just found a cat that is not mine, and it has had a litter of kittens under my bed,” Zarcilla wrote. He documented the entire discovery of newborn kittens and their momma and its aftermath in the most adorable Twitter thread, and it quickly went viral, accumulating nearly 74K likes and over 21K retweets. Paris even took some close-up pictures of the 4 adorable kittens. Overwhelmed with emotions, he tried his best to explain the feelings that were taking control of him seeing the cute kittens. Scroll down to check out what he went through during this crazy turn of events!

Someone was breaking and entering into this guy’s bedroom, but he caught them red-pawed

But he soon adjusted to his new role as the ‘cat dad’

Update:

To those unaware, over two years ago, London-based film director and writer Paris Zarcilla walked into his room to find a cat—mind you, not his—who managed to give birth to four kittens. And to think all he wanted was to just grab a jumper and go run some errands. Well, that didn’t happen.

Instead, he canceled everything and started tending to the new happy family, assuming the role of cat dad. After consulting cat protection, vets, and charities, he gave a short introduction to all of the cats on Twitter and that was the start of an exciting new adventure for everyone involved. He didn’t intend on owning cats, but here he is. Owning cats.

Well, this is them a couple of years later, celebrating their two-year anniversary as a lovely family

For those unaware, in 2018 Paris Zarcilla walked into his room to find a stray mama cat who’d birthed 4 kittens
3-600ff08008f65__700.jpg


Throughout the years, he has been posting various pictures and updates on his Twitter, detailing life with the pawmily of 5. And, last May, he came out with a tweet celebrating their two-year birthday, which served as somewhat of a grand update on how happy the happily-ever-after is. And it’s not ending here!

“Happy Birthday my fam. I love you more than you’ll ever know. You’ve brought so much light to my life. You have me forever. X #Caturday #TwoYears,” read the tweet.

Throughout his entire Twitter account, the cats are seen hanging around on the window sill, sleeping, sniffing about (food and other things), being curious, box fun, among many other cute, hilarious and exciting cat things. When you have five cats, activities for them are numerous.

He ended up giving the entire cat family a forever home and posting regular updates

One of the bigger updates was their two-year birthday last May and their Christmas together a month ago

Now, Paris was already overwhelmed with emotion and the excitement of becoming a cat dad, but it got better: people started donating food, equipment, books, and other things to help him out with taking care of the cats—“ find myself in a stage of awe at the generosity and kindness of strangers,” he said in one of this tweets.

There was a GoFundMe campaign launched to help out with the cause, but it was soon stopped because of people being hella generous with their donations—they gave more than enough, exceeding all expectations. Best of all, it seems like the cats appreciated the shipping boxes the most. You know, cuz cats.

Needless to say, the pawmily has grown a lot since Paris’ first adventure with them

Meet the entire family, one by one, at the time of the birth and adoption






You can check out the entire origin story thread on Twitter, and just follow the life of the lovely cat family because it seems the cats have commandeered what you’d expect to be Paris’ filmmaking Twitter account. Paris also has his own professional website, so you can peep it as well.

I'm glad that he did not break the bond and adopt them all together, this is beautiful family!

oh hell no. Invading my space? Momma Cat would've had to pay some rent or get tossed with her spawn.

I don't like cats. I think they are creepy and evil. Thinking they own sh!t. :cry::cautious::LOL:

I need to wake up fully. I read "man finds cat who had kittens under his beard" and wondered what in the hell kind of living conditions did he have where a cat would feel that THAT was the safest place to give birth to kittens? What kind of beard!? Lol

That's a sweet story. You go from panic attacks and wondering why your here on this earth to a father of five lol. It seemed like this is exactly what he needed but if he had a litter of cats chilling under his bed what else is going on in that house? :sick:

Anyway this sounds like a Disney movie in the making.

Sort of how I came by my demon. Went to put the garbage out in a thunderstorm, there was this abandoned week old kitty half drowned near the garbage cans. I think mom was prob moving them and may have gotten hit or something happened.( Took her in, intending to drop her to the vet in the morning. Never happened).

Let's just say I've never given birth but, I sure know what it feels like to stay up all night terrified your newborn sleeping in ur arms against ur skin so she can hear ur heart beating is going to stop breathing.

My girl is 7 years old in may. Spoiled and living her best luxurious life.

When I think of how much I postponed going to put the garbage out that night.

Reminds me of how I ended up with my second cat, back in 2002.

A stray kitten (or a kitten from a feral colony) followed me for eight blocks while I was walking home, after work. By the time I had reached the corner of my neighborhood, I already accepted my fate. The kitten adopted me.

At the time, I already had a cat. An adult (and neutered male) named Sir Massachusetts (don't ask me about the name. I gave the name-giving task to my goddaughter, who was six). So, I didn't know how he was going to take having another cat in the house.

Well, Sir Massachusetts didn't give a sh!t. Allowed the kitten to crawl over him and fall asleep next to him.

The other problem was my mother, who was living with me.
So, I just didn't say anything to her. I just allowed both cats to roam freely in our home.

That's a long walk to walk at night, you be-careful and watch out your back. And that's cute story!

I was feeling cynical as I read the first couple tweets because he was just over the top. And I assumed he'd separated them, so when I discovered he didn't...


... it restored a little bit of faith in me.

It’s so awesome he kept them all. Litter mates are fun.

I went out one morning to my backyard after hearing a cat crying. Found the feral I’d been feeding giving birth. I eventually got her and the 4 babies into my home and gave over my guest bedroom to the little family. Welp, 10 years later the 3 girls are still here and their brother lives with a coworker (who I cat sit for when she goes on vacation).
