A cat lover shared a touching story about how their cat’s sorrowful meowing almost made them cancel their vacation. While cats tend to be more independent compared to dogs, they can still feel a deep sense of loneliness when their human companions are away.
For this particular cat owner, seeing their furry friend’s sorrowful behavior while they were gone was enough to break their heart.
Introducing Pawl the Cat, a charming feline who stars in a popular TikTok account called @acatnamedpawl. The account delights viewers with Pawl’s many adventures. When Pawl’s owners decided to take a vacation, they ensured he wasn’t entirely alone by having someone check on him daily.
To keep an eye on him, they also set up pet cameras around the house. One particular clip of Pawl clutching his fish toy and meowing sadly drew around 12.1 million views.
Jonah, Pawl’s owner, shared with Newsweek: “I found Pawl about four years ago. I had just moved into a ground-floor apartment when a kitten appeared and started scratching at my window. We’ve been the best of friends ever since.”
