Ian Somerhalder Prepped for Fatherhood with Kitties

Ian Somerhalder recently spoke to People about how he prepped for fatherhood. Here's what he had to say:

On caring for kittens:
“To get up in the middle of the night to bottle feed eight kittens that would die without you, it gives you a sense of what it’s like to care for something that depends on you for its survival. It’s a very special thing. It’s a great beginner’s course.”

And on preparing for messes:
“I’ve learned to smile through cleaning endless amounts of [kitten] poop and pee.”

Don't miss Ian at this year's CatCon in LA on August 12th:
“It’s an amazing arena for people to get together with common threads and this is in love and support of one of the coolest amazing furry critters: cats.”
