Jones told The Dodo, “I heard knocking.” “However, there was no one around.”
Jones’ gaze was drawn to this as she scanned her surroundings:
Jones noticed a black cat perched atop a handrail near the entrance on a nearby stoop. And it wasn’t long before it became evident why.
As Jones looked on, the cat reached up and pawed at the doorknob, signaling, precisely like a person, that he’d like to be allowed in.
“I couldn’t believe what I was seeing,” Jones admitted.
She recorded the strange incident in case anyone else didn’t believe it:
Clearly, the kitten had discovered a more efficient method of summoning his owner than, say, the subtle pitter-patter of his paws against the door. Unfortunately, Jones had to leave before the cat’s request could be accomplished.
“I was tempted to go and knock a little harder for him,” she explained, “but then my bus came.” “At that time, still in disbelief, I got on the bus.”
Jones’ video has already gone viral, garnering millions of views in a matter of days – proving that an adorable kitten is always welcome in the internet’s collective heart. This is especially true if he knocks.
