Imagine a surprise waiting at your doorstep every day—an unexpected visitor who appears like clockwork. That's exactly what happened to one family a few months ago when they noticed a peculiar and adorable guest showing up at their front door.
A stray cat, later named Mittens, started showing up every single day. He would peer through the glass at the cats inside. His longing gazes at the other well-cared-for cats inside revealed his desire for a loving home. Determined to help, the family started leaving cat food and shelter for Mittens outside.

After a few days of observing the little cat, the family noticed that his health was in poor condition. The family wrote on TikTok that Mittens was limping, filthy, and covered in fleas and ticks every time he appeared, making it clear how bad he was doing. The affectionate family couldn't stand seeing him like that, so they decided to catch him safely and bring him to the vet for a health check. To their shock, they discovered that Mittens had been shot with a BB gun.

Mittens had always just wanted to find a place to call home, but even after he did, he was incredibly afraid. “He wasn’t used to humans or being fed,” the family wrote. “He was scared of being hurt again.”
Mittens hid behind the toilet in the bathroom, watching his new family from a distance. Gradually, Mittens began to trust his new family, and he eventually warmed up to them. He fell in love with his cat siblings and started adjusting to his new life. With love and care, Mittens experienced many heartwarming firsts, like playing with toys and enjoying chin scratches.
