Sometimes, the world works in meowsterious ways, and other times, it acts so predictably you're sure you're living in a simulation. There are certain things we have just accepted that we'll never understand - like why peanut butter and pickles are actually a tasty combination of foods, where our cats disappear to when we can't find them, and where the other sock goes after we put it into the laundry. And then, there are things like finding an itty bitty black kitten while trick-or-treating on Halloween. It's like the Cat Distribution System chose the most obvious answer on the test, you know, the one that's so obvious that it seems wrong, even though it's right?

Well, after asking some neighbors about a meowing he heard, he went searching for the source and found this baby void snuggled in between two trash cans. As soon as they said it wasn't their cat, he immediately scooped up the little guy, named him 'Ghost', and adopted him into his fluffy feline family. Who knows if he found Ghost, or Ghost found him, but all that matters now is that they're together.

Remind us to go trick-or-treating in their neighborhood next year - we would love to get a cute kitten instead of candy! See more pictures of Ghost and his story below.

    • evananthonymor... OP 15h ago Edited 14h ago • I was tagging along with my sisters and her kids walking around her neighborhood. It's a newer development with a lot of big houses but all super tightly together. They mentioned they have been hearing a cat crying the past few days kind of moving around 6-7 houses.

  • We say this about almost every kitten, but tiny black kittens are the cutest. They are so small and floofy, with just little eyes peeking out of their dark fur. Best trick or treating ever!

    We were just walking around the block then came to were they said that and we heard the crying. I went directly over to a house it sounded like it was coming from. The people were outside handing out candy. I asked if they heard that (distress meowing) and they said yes it's been going non stop.

    I asked if it was okay to go to the side of there house and look and they said go for it. I iterally turned the corner and the cat was in between two trash cans. It literally was right there wasn't even an issue to find. I asked if it was there's and they said no so I kept him.

    deanee01 1d ago Halloween baby. Purrfect! And he looks very smol can we have more pics. You need lots of pics cause they grow up fast!
    via deanee01

  • Yes, this is great advice. Take all the pictures you can because in just a few months, Ghost will be unrecognizable. He will still be a cute void, but he will never be this smol ever again. It's a shame the kitten phase doesn't last just a little bit longer!
