Man’s Cat Helps a Little Too Much.
A man’s cat would often bring him little “gifts,” like most cats do birds, mice, whatever it managed to hunt around their small neighborhood. The man never encouraged it, always tossing the offerings out, but he figured it was just his cat’s way of saying thank you.
But one week, things went a little too far.
The man was a simple cook. He’d make spaghetti, soup, stews always leaving his pot on the stove to heat while finishing his nightly routine. Yet three nights in a row, when he came back to stir the food, he found something waiting for him: a dead animal dropped right in the pot.
At first, he thought it was some strange prank, maybe even rats sneaking in. One night he tried staying up late to catch whatever was happening, but nothing came. Finally, he set up a camera. What he saw left him speechless.
It was his cat. Somehow, the cat had figured out the routine that the man always cooked in that pot, that food came from there. And in the cat’s mind, if the man wouldn’t eat the gifts left at the doorstep, maybe he would eat them if they were “cooked.”
The footage showed the cat proudly carrying its latest catch, leaping up to the stove, and dropping it right into the simmering pot, certain it was finally helping its owner. To the cat, it wasn’t a prank at all it was an act of love.
