Charlie has always been a very silly and lively cat. His family saved him when he was just 12 weeks old. Everyone began noting that he consistently placed a toy in the same location every morning before they woke up around six months ago.
Charlie was actually leaving gifts for his family, but they weren’t aware of it at first. It turns out.
“In the beginning, all we noticed was that once in a while we would find one of his favorite toys near the top of the basement stairs, which we had to pass to get into the kitchen each morning,” Beth Tivol, Charlie’s mom, told The Dodo. “We figured he had been playing with it during the night and had just left it there. As time went on, one of his toys wound up there almost every morning. We learned to step over them.”
Frustrated that his family wasn’t recognizing his gift-giving, Charlie decided to take his efforts up a notch. Instead of just leaving his toys, he started leaving random things he found around the house, in the exact same spot as always, of course.
Things that weren’t his typical toys eventually began to arrive, according to Tivol. a headband. Pen cap. We couldn’t locate a twist-tie that had fallen on the ground the previous evening. Another hair knot, again. Although it was fairly practical, we believed that he had noticed just a few minor details.
On certain days, when he must have had something very amazing, we would find him waiting patiently outside the doorway. After a few further weeks of this, we at last understood. He had left us presents!
Now, every morning when Charlie’s family wakes up, they come downstairs and eagerly check to see what Charlie has left for them. No item is off-limits, and it seems that every night Charlie scours the house to find the perfect, very weird gifts to present to his family.
Some of his gifts include electrical tape …
… a McDonald’s straw, some drill bits and a green bow …
Sometimes, his family claims they have never even seen some of his gifts in the house and has no idea where he gets them.
Tivol stated, “The McDonald’s straw is a mystery, but I suspect the bow came from beneath the sofa, and I know the drill tools were on the workbench next to our drill press.
Charlie appears to feel the need to thank his family every day with very strange presents that he’ll probably never stop delivering since he is so appreciative of them saving him.
Tivol remarked, “I have to admit, getting up in the morning is completely different now. “Has Charlie brought anything for us today? Is it a toy or something unique for him? Actually, the suspense is both exhilarating and comforting.
We are really appreciative of our Charlie Kitten, and it is a wonderful way to start the day.
