This is Vito, a charming and gorgeous cat with a small disclaimer about his existence.
The owner of Vito, Valentina Colombo, told The Dodo that “he always does what he wants.”
However, Vito frequently seeks attention. And he’ll pay whatever it takes to acquire it.
Going about daily life at home, Vito’s need for the focus to be on him sometimes makes even simple tasks more difficult for Colombo and her family.
Oh, it’s laundry day? Change of plans.
Thinking of getting some work done on the computer? Think again.
Do you want this ball? Insert kitty sounds here.
Vito recently faced out against their big-screen TV, one of the most dangerous rivals for his family’s attention. And, well, he triumphed.
Vito entered as Colombo and her brother were unwinding to watch a soccer match. He began by climbing up onto the TV stand and pressing his adorable cheeks on the edge of the screen to entice them. But when it failed, he attempted another strategy.
A TV he bit. and damaged it.
Colombo remarked, “I never expected that he was going to bite it and, no less, shatter the TV. “We’re stunned. We found it hard to believe.
The TV is still showing a picture, but one side of the screen is completely black.
The cat knew what he was doing. And he has no regrets.
“Vito doesn’t seem sorry,” Colombo said. “He wanted to attract attention.”
That’s just what Vito does.
Despite now having a broken TV due to Vito’s attention-seeking ways, Colombo doesn’t hold it against him. TVs are replaceable, after all. Vito is not.
“I can’t get mad at him for this,” she said. “We have a lot of love for him. He will always be our baby.”
