A lonely stray cat set her sights on a young delivery driver…jumping onto his leg and refusing to let go. The skinny white cat was obviously in need of help – little did she know that the young man she targeted was not a cat person.
But sometimes persistence pays off. The “not cat people” driver was swayed by the little cat’s determination.
The sweet feline was clearly happy to have a friend and she made herself comfortable while deliveries were being made.
The sweet encounter was posted to TikTok, with the boy’s mother explaining what happened…and how she could not resist when her son said that he was bringing a cat home.
The heartwarming video has garnered nearly 3 million views.

And follow-up videos reveal that the cat is no longer a stray, no longer lonely, and no longer nameless (she is now known as Venus). Sometimes reaching out to a stranger works out for the best. Enjoy your spoiled new life, Venus!
@dretontheborder 🥰 For all who have asked. Here is an Update on the cat that jumped on David and didn’t let go of him. It didn’t have a collar and it was super skinny and hungry. Thank you for embracing our #catjourney #cat #catrescue #catpeople #dogpeople @davidtrev90 #gato #rgv956 #catsoftiktok #catperson #learning #embracing #pets #firsttimecatowner #rescateanimal
Wonderful…that was a great story amid all the negative ones you’ve posted.
THIS cat was determined to find a home, which leads me to believe that he/she had a home in the first place!! She/He wasn’t going to starve, she/he wanted a home and got one!! Please keep the cat inside at all times 24/7!! The dangers and diseases such as a disease that mimics HIV for cats can be gotten outside, not to mention the other dangers as being hit by a car, a person, even an animal!!
Awww she picked him, no greater love and honor than when a cat picks you to be their owner.
Thank You Lord for putting compassion in this man’s heart and for giving this little soul the determination to persist.
Thanks for the wonderful story and kind family and most of all the delivery boy that was kind to this vulnerable cat. Son you are doing God’s work !
Thank You Very Much !
I want to shake the hands of this young man’s parents for raising a wonderful human who’s heart was opened to the love of the animal even though he didn’t know it needed to be opened. God Bless him and his family and that smart little white kitty, Venus, enjoy your new forever loving home.
The sweet little cat knew a good man when she saw one. That young man is a national treasure. Good job, Manches’s parents and family!
Aaahhhh, that’s so sweet! I’m so glad the kitty didn’t give up and the young man now has a loving companion ❤️
My heart sings to read this wonderful story about a compassionate young man and gorgeous cat who crossed each other’s path and are now bonded for life. Young man, you restore my faith in humanity. Venus, you are precious. All my love to you both!
your cat people now…..
