'You guys have reduced a mailman to tears': Government employee starts feeding stray cats at a trailer park, receives hundreds of dollars in wholesome support from strangers for his heartwarming handouts

Now these are the types of stories that make our feline-shaped hearts go all aflutter with wholesomeness. We have nothing but kind words to say about the online cat community, and that's not something we can say about hardly anyone at all! One defining feature of a cat purrson is that they will always go out of their way to help cats in need. Even if you have three cats and you say, "We can't adopt another one, three is our maximum", but then you find a hungry stray on the side of the road…. you're going to take him home. Anything is better than letting it continue to live on the street.

Anyway, we've teased you enough - it's time to talk about this random act of kindness that happened below. A mailman posted about how he started to fall in love with cats after making deliveries to a local vet, and then, after delivering to a trailer park once and seeing all the cats there, he decided to start feeding them. Well, the internet turned out and sent him hundreds of dollars worth of food and treats so he could continue to feed them without financial stress. See? We told you it was a good one.

If you're looking for a story to pull on your heartstrings, you've found it. If you're looking for a story of a grown man crying from the kindness of others? Welcome, and grab some tissues.
