There is often a wonderful and sometimes almost magical bond between children and their pets.
This is confirmed once again in this video. It captures the moments when a boy meets his long-lost cat.
Seven long months
We all remember what a wonderfully long time the six weeks of summer vacation were in our childhood.
Seven months is an eternity for a boy of perhaps ten. That’s how long it’s been since he last held his beloved house cat in his arms.
The cat was thought to be lost and the boy probably thought it was dead. But she is not.
When the boy in the video from RM Videos comes home from school, the velvet paw is sitting in the living room as a matter of course.
The shock of happiness
The boy can’t believe his eyes and the bewilderment is written all over his face.
As if in a dream, he puts down his school backpack and stands there for a moment as if he has seen the eighth wonder of the world. Then reality sets in.
He runs towards his cat and the tears start to flow. They continue to flow as he sits down on the sofa and takes his cat in his arms.
Sobbing, he hugs her and can’t believe his own happiness. By the time the cat licks his face tenderly, we know:
This is a love that is mutual.
A shared experience
Such touching scenes of reunion happen more often than you might think. Viewers share their own experiences in the comments.
RobTheProspect describes his feelings very vividly with these words:
„I remember that feeling. You’ve accepted the loss and have already processed the grief. Then it all comes flooding back, but in reverse order. It’s overwhelming.“
Do you also have poignant memories of being reunited with a beloved pet? Then the scene in the video will look familiar.
Watch it now!
