00:00That's one from this morning and there may be sometimes two a day.
00:11She likes to go to the garden where all the camellia bushes are.
00:16She just happens to love that smell and that's why she is drawn to them.
00:20And then once she's got them in her mouth, she's very gentle with them and she will drop
00:24them like nearby in the house or just by the front doors or something.
00:29Hi.
00:30Oh.
00:31Hi.
00:32Wow.
00:33You have to tell me how this started and why.
00:41I came home from work one day and there's all these flowers on like the bed and the
00:46floor.
00:47And then when my partner got in from work, I was like, thanks for the flowers.
00:50He was like, what do you mean?
00:52Where have these flowers come from?
00:54At the same time, there was this cat around the neighborhood and she would come to my
00:59bedroom window out the back of the house and like meow outside the window.
01:04One night I caved because it was just really freezing and I was like, this cat clearly
01:07wants to come inside.
01:08And she's there with the flower in her mouth.
01:10And I was like, oh my gosh, it's the cat that's bringing the flowers.
01:15We let her in and she slept on our bed.
01:18She didn't really leave.
01:19She sort of hung around the house and around like our garden area heaps after that.
01:30I put her in a crate and took her to the vets to see if she'd been microchipped, which she
01:34hadn't.
01:37We also found out she was pregnant.
01:40I think at that moment, I just, I realized that we needed each other.
01:44We decided, okay, let's get these kittens safely delivered and find their forever homes.
01:53She was so calm and relaxed all through her pregnancy.
01:56Every night she would snuggle between me and my partner and it was just making sure that
02:00she felt really safe.
02:03So she birthed these kittens on our bed inside like this little cute box we'd made for her.
02:12The fact that we got to be a part of it and the fact that she felt comfortable enough
02:14for us to sort of be around, it was like the cutest thing I've ever seen.
02:20The cat charity that's local to this area took the kittens for us.
02:24We then got fiddy de-sexed and then we moved into the house that had like eight, nine,
02:29ten camellia bushes.
02:35The camellia flower symbolizes deep devotion, appreciation.
02:40So it's really interesting that that's the one she's picked.
02:44We just love each other so much and the flowers are a bonus.
02:49She is my soulmate.
