Despite having been a spoiled fur baby, this family cat showed immediate and undeniable affection for the newest member of the family.
Worried about Diana's reaction to the sudden arrival, the couple prepared for all possibilities, including potential jealousy or confusion. Fortunately, they didn't have to worry about any of that.
Instant bond
A video shared by the parents captures the magical bond between the baby and their furry friend as Diana nestles herself protectively around the baby. With her front paws draped gently over the baby.
Diana looks utterly at peace, her eyes half-closed in a contented doze.
The Mum softly strokes Diana's back while the baby sleeps snugly on her chest. Comments have flooded in with viewers expressing delight at the cosy setup, with one person joking, "Did you get twins?" and another exclaiming, "She's a kitty blanket!"
Careful introductions
The family's decision to introduce Diana to the baby in a controlled, safe environment has clearly paid off, resulting in a peaceful and close connection between them. Experts often encourage new parents to give pets a gradual, supervised introduction to newborns, as it allows animals to understand and accept the baby as part of their family.
Judging by this adorable footage, Diana has truly embraced her role as the baby's first friend and guardian.
