当爷爷遇上猫:一场意外的美食邂逅!
当爷爷遇上猫:一场意外的美食邂逅!


In a video, a grandpa was enjoying a piece of bread when the cat, named Finnigan, just had to have a taste. Without hesitation (犹豫), the grandpa let him take a bite right out of his hands. Then, the elderly man started copying the funny face the cat made while enjoying the treat. His daughter Barb thought that was too funny! She recorded the video and posted it on the Internet. 

“We were visiting my parents, I looked over and saw my father sharing his bread with Finnigan,” Barb said. She explained that the elderly man didn’t give the cat too much of the unhealthy snack. It was just a small bite!
The video has become very popular online. People are falling in love with the lovely pair. People on the Internet loved seeing this cat’s special bond with his human grandpa. Some have shared sweet stories of their own about their family members’ relationships with their four-legged friends. 
“My dad pretends (假装) he doesn’t like pets but he will save fresh shrimp (虾) from our meals and serve it on a real plate to my cat,” wrote one user. Another added, “My grandpa used to share a bowl of ice cream with his cat every night.” That probably wasn’t the best food for the animal’s health, but we’re sure the man’s heart was in the right place.
When we have a pet, it becomes part of the family. It’s wonderful to see how Barb’s dad has accepted her cat as one of his own!
