Sweet Moment: Leopard Cub Playfully Awakens Smiling Mother During Their Naptime

October 27, 2023 by Pham Hien

When mothers stay at home with their babies, they almost have no private or free time.

The toddlers refuse to separate from their moms. They want their moms to play with them, talk to them, and take a nap together. We do believe that if they wake up without their mom, they will cry or scream immediately. But it doesn’t mean the mothers will have a sound sleep. If the babies wake up first, surely, they will wake up their mothers, too. Mothers of young children all understand this, right?

This also happens in the world of animals, guys. Just take this playful and energetic baby leopard as an example. The cub and its mom were taking a nap when tit was awoken by a sudden downpour. As it was not interesting to enjoy its time alone, the cub decided to wake its mom up.

And, the reaction of the leopard mom melts our heart. Instead of staying mad with her cub, she gave it a tolerant wide smile of a mother. The majestic cat didn’t get irritated with her kid’s annoyance. Her cub just wanted its mom to play with it and invited her to join in the sweetest and most direct way.

Not just that, the mama smiled widely at her cub and gave it a big heartwarming hug. They kept cuddling each other, enjoying peaceful, happy moments together.

This adorable footage was taken by Leighton Lum, a 32-year-old wildlife photographer in Kenya. The social distancing during the endemic enables him to get more chance to observe the life and wild animals.
