We think that we are slowly but surely figuring out the perfect formula for how to make a story go viral on the internet. So far, the following seems to always work. Take a story about an adorable cat getting rescued. Now, add to that a very large handsome man, and you're got a winner. There seems to be something about the combination of large men + itty bitty kitties that makes the internet go crazy every single time, and if that large man is also the one who rescued the kitties? That's it, you've got a winner.
That's exactly the kind of story we have today. Between all the horrors of what happened in Turkey, there was one little ray of light - a story of a cat getting rescued by a very handsome man that gave people hope for humanity. Although… we don't know what people did more of - be happy for the cat getting rescued and finding a forever home or… thirst over how handsome the rescuer is. We know that we did both, and we ain't ashamed to admit it.
There's so much about this video to love. The cat on the shoulder looking perfectly calm, nuzzling into the man's face. The man looking absolutely friggin' smitten, smiling like this kitty is the best thing that happened to him. Yep, we could watch and rewatch this video all day long.
And to find out later on that this amazing man also took this kitty into his home is just- the cherry on top of this story. We are so thankful to him, words cannot even describe it. Him also being jaw-droppingly handsome is nothing but a really nice bonus.
