Wholesome Maintenance Guys Make a Motivational “Observation Fort” for the Cat Living in the House They’re Working On, and It’s the Cutest Thing

Cats have this power, this aura… we call it "cat meowgic" which they can use to make literally anyone fall in love with them in like- 0.3 seconds. It's something unique to cats, and it pretty much always works. How many times have we read stories of dads who hated cats falling in love with them? How many stories of moms that hated cats becoming best friends with them after being adopted by one? And even strangers - complete and total strangers walking into people's homes to do some maintenance work, completely and utterly falling in love with their itty bitty felines.

It happens all the time, and it happened here once again. These maintenance people have fallen for this cat's spell, and instead of fixing the air conditioner, they were focused on building this cat an "observation fort". Which, some might say is a bad waster of their time. And others - mainly everyone on the internet - say is one of the cutest things that have ever happened to anyone ever.

Give the gift of kindness this holiday season by donating to our Giving Tuesday fundraiser to help homeless pets and animals in need! It's time to pay your cat tax!

Honestly, we don't even care if they spent time making this instead of fixing the air con, because this is worth it. In fact, we would be inviting these maintenance guys right back. Because we love them. And we hope this cat loves them too after what they did.

The level of creativity in this thing is kind of amazing, actually. You better have kept this. This box was made from the heart, and right now, we require - nay, we demand - to get pictures of this cat appreciating this box in all of its glory.
