Cute Overload :D
I would NEVER do that.
OMG listen to that purring action. Dang, Trialia X.!
My youngest daughter’s name is Emily Rose. She’s almost as cute and likes to have her feet rubbed. *Snerk*
Teh Nurrable-nesses!
OMG!!! That’s the SWEETEST lil’ kittee!!!
I want to put her in my pocket!
Ahn, sleepy kittayn, dreaming of pa-sickies & bleens.
I can’t get over how tiny she is! Too anerable!
AWWWWWWW!
keesy keesy keesy!!
Emily Rose is a pretty name.
sure she can purr…but can she say pa-sickie???
Adorable! Reminds me of my cat Fritz. Someone left him and his littermates on in a bag on the side of the road, he was the only one still alive. He was so weak when I took him to the vet that he only charged me $1. I had to feed him formula from the vets with an eyedropper. But he made it and lived to be 17.
who doesn’t like to be scritched and petted?!
I forced myself to watch halfway through and had to stop it. I would had rather she hadn’t said everything 2 – 3 times. Each statement once would have been plenty. Yes, I baby talk to animules too and don’t object at all to it. I object to the constant re-run of everything said. Urp!
psh.. that baby talk is nothing compared to what i can produce! ^_~
i want to kiss dat little belleh with all da spots. yes i do.
PattyP: May I recommend the mute button? It’s a very sweet video.
oh……….my………..god
There are no words for that kind of cuteness! I’m speechless………….except for………….
SQUEEEEE!!!!!!!!
“spotty-botty belly” hee.
BTW, you can’t hit the mute button, you can’t miss that mini-purring! That’s half the fun.
You know those people who send in negative posts about anything, no matter how innocent?? Do you think their ears start to grow upward? Maybe get a little floppy? And their noses start to twitch? And then, do they grow whiskers that go all aquiver with indignation??
The baby talk got a bit tiresome near the end, yes. But I give her mad props for the use of the word “turgid.” And that kitty is OBSCENELY adorable. Like, it should be against the law, to be that cute.
My submission, but not my audio commentary.
That’s naamah_darling, from LJ – she gave me permission to submit the video. Such a beautiful little girlkitten…
*splode
BRING THAT KITTEH TO MY MOUTH!
Can’t listen to sound at the moment, but the video is pretty squeeful.
It’s kitteh season, peeps.
I had to stop this video after 20 seconds because I was so so overwhelmed wiht teh cute.
Geeee. I totally had my toes curled. My head exploded and I could not stop grinning while saying (in a freaking high-pitched voice) “that’s toooooooo cuteeeeee”
Actually my little brother freaked out.
I am in deep DEEP love! oh my!
I had to take that video in small sips. I have never seen such a sweet little kitty, and I bow to that lady’s amazing babytalk vocabulary! If she has/ever has kids, they would probably start talking at 6 weeks!
Wordnerd: agree about “turgid” – thought that was a good word not used enough. Wide vocabulary and teeny kitty, good things to have.
That woman was a thousand times more coherent than I would have been. No being in the Universe would have been able to understand the babble that would come out of my mouth at the presence of that itty bitty baby! So precious my brain melted out my ears.
I can’t help it. You can hear that this lady is the bomb through the baby talk. I listened to every word with a smile.
And the baby…I actually got tears in my eyes.
Well, I think the “scritcher” has a sweet voice and the “scritchee” seems to like it too. She’ll grow up to be a lovable kitty because of the attention she’s getting.
Emilia Rose? this kitten is named after my sister and i! i have a question though, why would anyone name something Emily Rose, after the Exorcism of Emily Rose came out. kind of like no one names their children “Rosemary” anymore
I could totally stuff that kitten in my mouf, but I have to say with all these kitten postings and such, we need to be realize the spca’s are LOADED with cats and kittens. Please, please, please, spay/neuter cats.
I’m guessing because some people don’t base how they name others on what horror movies are/have been out?
I mean, there’s a whole host of names that aren’t in common use anymore that have nothing to do with movies.
Kristen, this little lady and her siblings were abandoned by their mother and adopted by my friend – she’s incredible when it comes to taking in strays and injured cats. She just took in a three-legged cat called Grace to care for and found someone to adopt her really quickly. You should go check out her journal (LJ username naamah_darling).
Yes, I know, baby talk is terrible, horrible, and the end of the world. It contributes to falling literacy rates, global warming, the obesity crisis, dolphin herpes, and the increase of cattle mutilations.
But you know, I challenge anyone to observe that level of cuteness in person and retain the power of coherent speech.
Anyone in doubt of my mental faculties can go to my journal and look at more pictures and see if they can still talk without drooling on themselves.
I’m not some sort of slack-jawed, subliterate, finger-sniffing imbecile, I promise. I was just exposed to toxic levels of cuteness at close range. A simple “Awww, how adorable!” is woefully insufficient. Sorry about those cattle mutilations.
She gets cuter every day, FYI.
Paddy-paws! I love it. I agree with Deanna, she does have a sweet voice so I don’t care how many times she repeats herself.
If I were narrating this video, it would just come out as a series of gurgles and squeals. Propz to the hand-scratcher for keeping some kind of coherency.
That being said,
AAAIIIIEEEEWIDDLEKITTEHHHHH!!
*cute coma*
Naamah,
I bow to *both* your powers of speech.
I just got a cute concussion.
See, I tolded my sister (Trialia) to post that, after I saw and squeed at the cuteness. Emilia is sooooooo anerable! *watches repeatedly*
Sounds like a Barbie moped. lol
Having finally heard the audio, the baby talk isn’t nearly as bad as I imagined. Pretty standard for someone who really loves animals (and also sedate, apropos of the kitteh’s sleepy demeanor).
Naamah, thanks for the love you give the world.
Oh by the way, Meg? You would SO do that.
You cannot resist teh kewt when it’s RIGHT THERE!
Oh, the sweepy, stwipey bebeh!
Oh dear Lord my heart just up and died.
I am SO JEALOUS. I wanna hold the kitty!!
Sure, the kitten is cute and all, but I would pay serious money for Naamah to lull me into sweet, sweet slumber with that super-hypnotic voice. “Who’s a pretty girl?” Gahhh…honkshu.
omg i luv it….I WANT ONE!!!!
its soooo cute
awwww adorable <3
It’s Namaah! I read her LJ. She is fostering 3 stray kittens who were orphaned when they were only about a week old.
Yeah, all you “Oh the baby talk is so horrid” people. Yeah you, tough guys! My 12 year old, The Quintessential Sullen Pre-Teen, He Who Will Not Smile, The Boy Who is Immune to Emotion, yes, the Kid Who is Overexposed to Video Game Violence walked by as I played the clip and said, in all sincerety:
“EEeee! Wook at dee widdle biddy kitty-cat!”
Brought a tear to my eye, it did.
You haf keeled me twice today.
OMG!! BEBEH KITLING!!! SQUEEEEE!!!!!!1!!!!1!!!1!!!
I see I’m not the only one who wants to just take the wee li’l thing and just schtuff her IN MY MOUF….OM NOM NOM NOM!!!!
“EEeee! Wook at dee widdle biddy kitty-cat!”
LOL Bev.
An animal rescue organization near YOU probably has orphaned baby kitties needing foster people. Call now for one of your own!
Cheryl (and the cats)
Aww. I fot dat da kitteh was purnin’. Bebeh talk-it’s good for ya’.
I caught this on Naamah’s LJ and can I just repeat what I actually said then – SQUUEEEEEE ZOMG KITTEHS! My own baby-talkage would have been much worse than what is on display here!
Crap. I melted all over myself. Now who’s going to clean this up???
Naamah, thank you from the bottom of my heart for the love and care you’re giving these wee kitties. Despite their sad start, I can’t imagine a better shot at life for them than to be in your capable hands.
Okay, I hope you’re happy now. Despite being in perimenopause (paws?) I am now LACTATING. At work. Thanks a million Meg, you maginificent bastid.
Naamah, I think I love you, although I don’t even know you, and for chrissakes I’m a married woman, but still…LOL
Not to mention being jealous of you having the cutest little bit of kittehfluff EVAR to love on! She obvy adores you back!
You know something, people? This site is good for the world and it’s not just because of the adorable pictures. To sit here and read these comments, see people talking about nomming a cute kitty’s ears, going squee while their heads explode, typing in baby talk because that’s the only way they can express the extreme cuteness of what they see….all this is so awesome!
The goodness of all you guys responds to the goodness of these wonderful pictures Meg posts for us and you express it in such a silly, fun, and good-natured way – in a way that lifts me up more than the pictures so…..hooray for all you guys! Let’s keep it up! And now back to your regularly scheduled cute coma.
BTW, there are apparently 2 Deanna’s posting today. The comment saying oh………my………god, and the mini-purr remark, and the response to the word “turgid” – that was me, but the poster who said “scritcher” and “scritchee” was another Deanna. So I will henceforth call myself Eireoakie.
I want to thank the narrator for doing the baby talking for me so I didn’t have to while watching this teensy purry-wurry spotty-belly-rubby kitteh….maximum squeeeeeeeness!
Thanks a lot, Naamah, for taking care a this sweet baby and her siblings (and many more, I guess): it will be hard to let them go! The last two cats I adopted were adults because I thought it would be harder for them to find a house, and everything, and I would do it again… but, man, kittens are just SO CUTE! How can you go to work with some of them around? Thanks also to Trialia for the submission.
Um… I dunno if I’m defective, but I cannot hear the purring, I only hear the lady talking.
As someone who has 3 bottle babies right now I must shake this woman’s hand for her restraint! The urge to baby talk is overwhelming! Also-that kitten looks blissful. So sweet!
OMG so adorable, it looks so relaxed!!
Oh my god, that’s so cute I died. And then was resurrected.
OMG, I can’t stand it. I can’t, that was just toooooooo krewellll! I tried and tried to reach through the screen….no joy.
Oh, the babytalk is not for us, but for teh cute lil kitteh who wuvs it! And I wuv teh kitteh! Squeeeee!
The purring sounds like the ticking of a happy watch from little tiny baby…where is mamma cat? I hope dis tiny baby has a fur mommy.
As for baby talk…prefer to pa-sickie any day.
Can someone tell me how old a kitten is supposed to be before it is taken from its mom and handled by people? Cute as they are, I’m starting to get an icky feeling every time I see one of these REALLY little kittens being poked/touched by people. I can’t help feeling that a kitty this age, should, ideally, be with her mommy.
I’m not trying to be a troll, I just wish someone could enlighten me here.
i wubs dis bebeh.
NO MORE PA-SICKIE PLZ!!!!!!!!!!!
Elena, thanks
Daphne, the babies were abandoned by their mama, unfortunately.
i grinned like an idiot all the way through that! sweet iddy biddy ball of love and fuz. i want to kiss its face!
Egad, I shudder to think what it would sound like if I was recorded talking all my silliness (and songs) to bebehs!!!
EmRo to base…Another ooman has been rendered helpless. Will continue to lure oomans until qteness factor is diminished…
I didn’t even have the speakers on and I still watched this whole video. Irresistible!
I. WANT. NOW! gimmegimmegimme
His kitty-bitty paws and nubular earlets! He doesn’t even have toe-beans; he has black sesame seeds on his toesies. I can’t take it anymore…
i totally babytalk like this to my kitty. and she’s *cough* twelve! *cough*
OMG, I want her 3-legged Pirate cat!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6V7_JeJHCMQ
But I’m in SoCal, and Oregon is kinda far…
oops! the other O state, Oklahoma! That’s even further
The Purrs people I mean Really it is all about the PURRRRRRS.. And Naaamah you are awesome.
Emily – You may not have recognized the purring as purring. It’s not the standard rising and falling “PURrrr, PURrr, PURRrr sound. It’s a continuous putt-putt-putt motorboat sound. If you can hear the lady, I think you have to be able to hear the purring.
Congrats to wonderful mamma rescuer! How sweet…is kitty doing OK?
Sounds more dignified than me. Yezz you so cute yezz you ahh! Then let out a high pitched eeeee. Then animal runs away…
OMG I squealed all the way through that. Now in the fetal position from too much cuteness… Ohhhh Gooodddddd
MUST GO RUB KITTEH TUMTUM
Best use of the word “turgid” EVAH.
Naamah: I have no doubts about your sanity; in fact I’m amazed at your level of self-control in the face of such preciousness. I’d be talking *exactly* the same way if she were mine.
BTW, are you married?
Ha ha ha, I love that Naamah is also an ICHC fan. In the Grace O’Malley (3-legged kitty) video taj linked, she teases the kitty with ‘I can has no leg.’ Hee. And calls her whiskers elegant. Rock on, Naamah.
WOW.
The fact a tiny little kitten like that was so comfortable and happy to receive that attention just BLOWS my MIND. The kittens I’ve had were all too squirmy to let me love on them like that, even tiny bits of love!
That tiny face…the tiny purrs…so overwhelmingly cute I want to jump out of a window!!!!
PandaDiana, if you look through the comments you’ll see that the video-maker is fostering these kittens because they have no mamma
Wow. That just makes my hard heart melt a wee bit for humanity’s compassion. Miracles happen.
Did anyone else just feel their blood pressure lowering and their entire body relaxing as they watched that video? Purring baby kittehs are so therapeutic!
Thank Ceiling Cat Emily Rose and her sibs got RESKEWED and ai prayz fur that fur AWL CATS n KITTENS!!!
AWWWWWWW. What a beautiful lil’ bebeh. I do the baby talk too, except in another language
And I’m SO glad that I’m not the only one who keeps beeping bebeh kitteh noses and moufs! ^_^
Seriously….baby talk is SO undignified! I agree Meg I would never- OMIGOD wook at dee widdle behbeh kitteh she soooo keeee-yout! Who’s dee widdle pwe-shus?
*shorts out computer by drooling on monitor*
I squeed like 5 times during that video. I had tears in my eyes. I want one!!!!!!!!!
*sigh* The love and teh Qte radiates. Definitely for teh world dominishe!
Aw want want want! Tiny pawsies of gorgeousness!
By the way I think the name of the horror film/book was ‘Audrey Rose’, not Emily. So no horror connected in any way with the cuteness.
I want to tuck that kitten up under my heart and keep it there. Wish I could foster tinies like this.
Hey, Londoner—some Mommies with teensy, widdle babies like this need fostering, too…all the fun with none of the work (’cause the Mommy’s doing it—just like fostering a grown-up, really)! I’m fostering 2 Mommies; one with 4 and the other has 5 babies.
@PandaDiana–it’s encouraged to handle the babies, to get them used to peeps! The moms I have keep a watchful eye, but they don’t have a problem with me picking up and snorgling the babies.
CUTEST THING EVER >>>>>>>>
Suffering…from…KITTEN…WITHDRAWAL…SYMPTOMS…must…find…kitten…to…cuddle…………
Go Namah! Your kitteh is adorable, I saved the LJ post to my memories for cute injections on bad days. LOVE HER.
Waaaall, it took me until this morning to recontruct my sploded haid. One look was followed by repeated looks at the video. Sadly, my repeated SQEEEEEING set up harmonics that caused my head to splode.
What precious kittllings. Props to Naamah, and thanks to Meg for posting these literal breath taking videos.
Sat here with a tilted “ahn” head and a big smile on my face the whole time.
Yay for Rescuers!
Emelia Rose and her brothers have to be the itty-bittiest Itty Bitty Kitties I’ve ever seen! The tinyness! The blue eyes! The pudgy baby tummies! The little feetsies! The teeny tiny tailios! The tiniest of baby-kitty meeps!
And the obvious love they’re getting from their adopted mama…
I saw how many comments there were while watching this, and I was thinking, “Okay, how did THIS start a commentroversy?” Glad to see I was wrong.
this was so completely adorable, and my 5 year old black cat Coal even came over and tried to make biscuits on the keyboard while this was playing. He was inspired by the purring!
I baby talk like this to him all the time.
the way she talks.. makes me feel uncomfortable…..
it sounds not right… sounds very very wrong.. (if you see what I mean)
That is…the most…PRECIOUS thing…………..
And I don’t use the word precious lightly here. Truly a treasure, this little baby and this little sleepy moment. I wouldn’t have been able to speak coherently in her presence either.
And she has my name squee!
Well my first name and middle initial.
Naamah, you are AWESOME, and this is the sweetest thing ever.
One more thing–that’s not purring, that’s drilling!!!
(Seriously, I don’t know if it was something about the audio, but that was some unusual-sounding purring. Still ANERABLE.)
“Could you be any cuter?”
NO!
I like how she starts off trying to talk normal and dissolves into goo-goo baby talk. This is exactly what happens with my cats, although they’re over 2 years old now.
“Good morning, Lavinia. See any good-looking birds today? Aww. Who’s fluffy? You are!”
“EEeee! Wook at dee widdle biddy kitty-cat!”
Your pre-teen has hope!
Bev, that little story of yours just melted my heart. I think anyone who is able to coo over a kittayn, is good at heart.
Namaah, thanks for the video. You are more sane than I am, what it comes to iddy biddy kittehs…
whata cootiepie
I just wanna eat ‘er up 
lil emily rose 
As a guy, you can rest assured that I would never baby-talk to any one of my 3 cats… Um..is that a camera…? Hey, is that a microphone…? Uhh… that wasn’t me baby-talking,it was… the TV!
Nom, nom, nom. Bebeh kittehs ears is nummy first thing in the morning. And a snorgle in the fuzzy, spotty tummy…OMG, I did NOT just say snorgle!
Kitteh: “You had me at ‘hello’. You had me at ‘hello’!”
Wordnerd (my nickname at work, by the way!), I completely agree about the use of “turgid”! I was delighted by that, and by the whole video. Especially when she said “See? All they want is a little love”; I thought, would that more people understood that!
I’m a lurker. Usually. But this video has me smiling and wanting to scoop up the kitteth. There may have even been a SQUEEE or two.
oh the fuzz-halo! oh!
I’M MELTY
I’M JUST A BIG PUDDLE OF MELTY MUSH
GAH!
I couldn’t even watch the whole video because it was so cute and made me ache for a kitty. I’m in an apt and can’t get one now…but I shall one day!
So cute!
And Emily Rose is the name of my new niece!
SOOO CUUUTTEEE! I have watched this five times and I start to tear up every…single…time.EGAD Make the purring stop!
@ Janni – Yeah, he likes to think he’s cool and all that, but he has been an animal (and especially cat) person from day one. My other two kids are animal lovers, too. It’s just that they “SQUEE” all the time.
Pre-Teen just walked past with our elderly cat tucked under his arm. Classic Unsmiling Urban Kid with a tail sticking out from under his elbow. Not going anywhere. Just, you know, carrying the cat around the house…
Awwwwww!!! What a sweet baby!!!
I just melted!
Fat hands ruin video.
*curls up into a ball and dies from cute overdose*
Okay, THAT was the best two and a half minutes I’ve spent in AGES.
THE ADORABLENESS!
TEH TINY KITTEH PURR!
*faints*
I truely just love this video IT is still making me smile.
Spotty botty belleh indead.
Love the tiny meow. Wanted to kick that lady’s teeth in.
that me feel wike cwying.
Aw, let her talk how ever she wants to her baby cats. That kitten was so lucky and happy.
God bless em both
Don’t you love how people grumble about oogly boogly babytalk, even as they frequent a site that uses words like “bebeh” and “snorgle” and “tocks”?
Who needs lulz when you’ve got CuteOverload
On a lighter note, Emmy and Jack and Plissken are so cute I could die.
I saw the other videos of the kittens. Whoever the narrator of these videos is did a great job nursing them to health! Good kitty karma onto you!
This is why God placed cute little animals on the earth! I built a 6 foot tall and 1 foot by 1 foot hamster cage for my baby! This little one reminds me of Peaches.
AHH! That is so adorable, my brain is melting. I can’t stand it. Soooo snuggly little kitten-head!
“Like I said…..yeesh these people………they just don’t get it”………I’m going to exact revenge. Just you wait.
EEEEE!!!! Little Kitty
Witty…………..little wee pink bellyla!!!
I don’t come back here to chat.
I just leave comments.
Meg……Awesome!!
Oh, please. When two of my cats were babies, I sounded like a blithering idiot compared to this girl. I think she (and the kitten) are absolutely darling.
Oh, please. When two of my cats were babies, I sounded like a blithering idiot compared to this girl. I think she (and the kitten) are absolutely darling.
One thing I’ve never understood:
How do they manage to stuff such a big motor into such a tiny body?
It’s just one more thing that makes kittehs so miraculous………..
Baby talk actually has a purpose. In child development circles, it’s known as “motherese.” Babies prefer (as in get obvious bored slower) the long musical words.
There is the variant often called “dogese” (I guess you could say “catese” too). The difference is that dogese doesn’t put emphasis on different parts of the sentence (verbs especially) that you do in motherese in order to actually teach infants language. So apparently we do get subconsciously that cute things must be talked to in a musical manner, but animals aren’t going to need to talk back the same way that human babies will.
Just an FYI. That college education was good for something…
You know I didn’t realize for a while that the “putt putt” sound was the kitten purring, until about 3/4 of the way in when she breaks for a moment and then comes back stronger. Eeee. <3
OMG, the pur. The PURR!
Just toooooo cute! I love her! I have a 15 yr. old, 6 yr. old and an 8 month kitten and I treat them as my kids. And the people with the negative comments are apparently not animal lovers.
PandaDiana,
when I was 8 a precious litter of kittens was born under my bed. I think those cats were handled from day 2 if not day 1. Very gently, mind. Also it helped if Mama was taking a meal break. They grew into big, loving, wonderful cats (understandably leary of underaged human. So was my Mama, who supervised my kitten-time). Katy, the one we kept was my boon companion til I moved away (no cats allowed in dorm or first few apts) and lived to be almost 16.
I *must* nom that kitten! NOW!
shes so cute! i had a kity kat once but she was mean to us, but cute!
Yay for late comments!
I love the tickety purr, the spotty belleh, and the wee tailio.
I defy anybody to hold this tiny a kittain in one hand and not be compelled to make the ickiest baby talk imaginable to it. I mean, could you ever say something like “Hello, Miss Emily Rose, and how are you today? Are the accommodations satisfactory? And the food? How about the service?” No, it would be impossible.
Kittains: A stomach, with incredibly loud meow, wrapped in fur and including a purr.
yeah, the most adorable kitten ever..
and how she is responding with her paws and eyes… 
:):) so lovely..
but one thing – why she (the woman) tries to stuff her fat finger into her tiny mouth??.. yak, that almost made me sick…. :XX
