Story About An Adorable Cat Who Brings A Leaf To A Shop Owner Every Day In Exchange For Fish Goes Viral (Twitter Thread)

Cats… cats can be incredibly smart sometimes. Like- yes, yes, they all have their dumb moments, and we love those, but they really shock us with how intelligent they can be sometimes. We've seen cats do all kinds of things that require cunning - like the cat who enters a lock code into a door every day to get inside the house or the or the cat who robbed a supermarket and stole 3 sausages - exactly 3. We know that cats understand patterns, they read reactions, and that once they want something, they will find a way to drive us crazy and get it.

So, when we see a story about a smart cat doing something amazing, from experience, we tend to not question it. And it seems that the rest of the internet is in agreement with us. That's why when this post went up - about a cat who brings a leaf to a shop owner every day to exchange it for fish, the internet ate it up.

No, but this picture is adorable on so many levels. From the leaf held so triumphantly in its teeth to the ears doing the classic, incredible, totally mind-blowing airplane position… no wonder this image went viral. Heck, we would retweet without thinking twice about it.

Sadly, as much as we wanted to believe - and trust us, we did - it seems that this story is indeed not real. But that doesn't mean that every other story in this thread isn't either. Cats are still some of the coolest, smartest, most cunning animals out there. They outsmart us every day, and we love it.
