Tuxedo Cat Encounters "Hyper-Realistic Counterpart", Leaving 200,000 People in Awe: A Feline Bond Forms

On February 22nd, which is celebrated as "Cat Day", netizens discovered a remarkably lifelike cat sticker at the entrance of a FamilyMart convenience store. The sticker was so realistic that even stray cats couldn't help but stop and stare. This amusing scene quickly went viral on social media platforms, attracting over 200,000 likes and numerous comments.

A user named @watqilu shared a post on Threads, recounting an amusing encounter. While passing by a FamilyMart store, they noticed a stray cat sitting in front of the automatic door, seemingly waiting for something. It wasn't until the door closed that they realized the cat was actually staring at a sticker of a white cat with tiger stripes, named "Baozi", which was placed on the glass door against the store's floor as a backdrop. The illusion was so convincing that the stray cat appeared mesmerized, prompting the original poster to exclaim how adorable the scene was and return to capture it.

Comments revealed that the stray cat, nicknamed "Ah Niu" or "Niu Niu", is a well-known local feline who has become a grandmother and has been neutered. Once slender, Ah Niu has gained weight over time and is affectionately called "Big Fatty". Many netizens shared photos of Ah Niu from different periods, leaving some to wonder how so many people recognized the same cat.

The original poster thanked FamilyMart for their stray cat adoption initiative, which has brought attention to the many pets waiting for a home. The post unexpectedly caught the attention of FamilyMart's editor, who humorously noted that the video inadvertently created a feline connection.
