In a temple dedicated to the Qing Shui Ancestor in Fujian, China, there resides a stray cat that has captured the hearts of many. This cat, often referred to as the "Daoist Cat," has a peculiar habit: whenever it feels wronged, it rushes to the main hall to lament its grievances before the deities. Observers have noted how adeptly this feline leaps onto the prayer mat, dramatically howling at the heavens as if to say, "It's all humanity's fault that I'm not fed enough; Ancestor, please help me!" This amusing spectacle has brought laughter to countless netizens.
This white and tabby cat was taken in by the temple staff and possesses a remarkable spirit. Whenever it experiences even a slight injustice, it scampers to the center of the main hall to plead its case to the Qing Shui Ancestor. Witnesses describe how the cat bounds up to the prayer mat in a few quick steps, adopting a kneeling position with devotion, while it vocally expresses its displeasure. It seems to be exclaiming, "It's all humanity's fault that I'm not fed enough; humans are so cruel! Ancestor, you must help me!" The cat's pitiful demeanor has been captured on video by temple staff members using their phones.
The footage quickly went viral online, eliciting a wave of laughter from viewers. Comments from netizens included remarks like, "This cat has a strong connection with the deities; it knows how to seek help from the Ancestor!" and "Could this be my tiger under your command?" Others noted how this stray cat seems to embody the spirit of a tiger. One amused viewer commented, "It's too cute; I can't stop laughing! It must be accusing those who are supposed to protect it of being terrible!"
The cat often spends hours sitting on the prayer mat, angrily meowing and flicking its tail in frustration.
