My cat is acting strangely with my kitten

by Megan
(Florida)

I have an 8-month-old cat, and a kitten I found abandoned under my home. The older cat has wanted nothing to do with the kitten since I have had him until today. All of a sudden, she grabbed the kitten and tried to hide under the couch with the kitten. When I took the kitten, she went under the couch and started to meow.

Maybe her mothering instincts have taken over and she's trying to take care of the kitten? That being said, major behavioral changes can indicate a health problem.
