Cats are known for bringing gifts to their humans. If your feline goes outside to hunt, they'll often bring you birds, lizards, or tiny rodents.

Sometimes they gift living creatures and other times dead ones. Your cat might not eat the poor creature, but you have to admit that it's still disgusting.

There are a few reasons why felines do this. It is part of the role of big, wild cats to train their cubs how to hunt and bring the game back.

Domestic cats share these instincts. They often cannot resist the thrill of chasing their prey.

But the most basic reason behind this behavior is that they treat you as their family. Furthermore, since they have predatory and carnivorous tendencies, they are excellent hunters of rats.

Cats do not need to activate their survival instincts at home since they have their owners to feed them. But they do it to entertain themselves.

Recently, one cat displayed this typical behavior on TikTok. But what made the furball's video viral is the favor it did for humans.

A woman named Luh Meira lost something important, which was then retrieved by a neighbor's cat. She said that no one would have believed her if she hadn't filmed it.

She was out and about with her son when the little boy saw a hole in a block of concrete.

It was just the right size for dropping things (which is quite tempting for the young ones). But since the hole is too small, there's no way a human can get back what gets in it.

The boy dropped his mom's keys. Luh Meira tried recovering it using a stick, but to no avail.

The black cat was only interested in the stick at first. But his focus immediately shifts to the little thing in the hole.

The cat's name is Panterinha (the Portuguese word for panther). He is their neighbor's cat.

The feline loves frolicking with the kids living in the building. It was pure coincidence that he found the mother and son.

Both were cheering for the cat while it was attempting to get the keys.
