‘Begrudging cat dads make the best cat dads’: Hermit van-life guy goes from ‘not a cat person’ to ‘certified crazy cat dad’ after finding a kitten in the desert

For some people, living alone in the desert far from everybody else in the world is a dream. The solitude and grit are exactly what they need to lead their peaceful life. However, sometimes the universe has different plans for you… In this case, that plan came in the size of an itty bitty kitten.

TikToker @thetruckeduplife recently changed their profile name to “Lady and That guy,” why? Because Lady is the tiny kitten who has recently taken over his life. Before Lady, his videos were tranquil vibes of him just living out of his camper and traveling in nature. Now, the past 20+ videos are all of his new feline bestie. The first video is when he found Lady, just an itty bitty kitten stuck under his camper meowing for help. He helped her, begrudgingly and with no intention of keeping her, but just a few minutes in having her in his life, his heart started to melt. 

He continued to post videos asking what he should do with the kitten, assuring the kitten he wasn't going to keep her. But then the videos quickly started to change to him falling in love. Each video after that it became more and more obvious that this kitty had found his way into his heart and from then on, he could never part. 

His followers have grown since posting Lady because the adorable blossoming relationship from hermit to crazy cat dad is just too wholesome to pass up. His videos have now gone from “I don't like cats” to taking her to vet visits, cuddling with her, comforting her during storms, playing with her in the middle of the night, and even getting her a matching hot pink leash and harness so he can take Lady with him everywhere (which he does). 

It's only been a few days, not even a week, and there have been over 20 videos and counting of Lady living her best life with her newfound desert dad. We and many other cat people on the internet cannot wait to see more of @thetruckeduplife and Lady. There's nothing more adorable than a begrudging cat dad becoming the best cat dad in the world. Is Lady the lucky lady or is this newly chosen cat dad? We think they've both won in life!
