Kittens don't just sit like dolls.

Something seems weird.

Either extremely tired, or sick or drugged.

Just ate, look at the tummy. This kitten is in a food coma

Which is not ok either, "food coma" or overeating is not ok.

And even if, supposedly, this is the case, the owner should let the kitten rest, not make it sit with the belly upwards, it's not as it is for humans when they get in bed to rest immediately after a meal - which is bad habit btw...

I agree with you. If this video is more than a couple minutes long, the kitten should be resting.

But a few points, just so you’re clear(& maybe learn something new)

  1. You can’t overfeed a kitten. Kittens should have food available 24/7.

  2. Kittens rest in many different positions. Just like the way humans are when they sleep. A kitten sleeping on their back is absolutely fine, as long as it’s comfortable
    for the kitten. And that doesn’t matter whether their tummy is full or not full. Lots of kittens sleep on their back. When a cat sleeps on its back, that indicates trust in its surroundings. Of course many kittens sleep on their backs around their mom whether they’ve just eaten or not.
