When I was about 11 yrs old I asked my mom how kittens were born and she said "through their mother's mouth". For many years I believed it and thought nothing about it. I was well into my forties when I found out the truth through a friend.
A childhood belief about cats and dogs
others believed things like this
- When I was young, I believed that because my mother was born in New Mexico, that I was part Mexican.Anon
- My friend thought it was SO WIERD that he was born on his birthday when I told him he was.Anon
- I thought a "cold sore" on your mouth was the same thing as "coleslaw" and so avoided eating it for years.— Helen (UK)
- my mother told me if i ever swallowed chewing gum i'd turn into a pig, i believed this for many years.— stuart hayward
- I once asked my dad what Jesus' surname was, and he said it was 'Sinclair'.
I believed it for years!— Rebekah - I use to believe that if I baptised kittens they would go to cat heaven.— Edward
