A stray cat has gone viral after it was caught on camera leading shoppers to the cat food aisle and showing them what it wanted to eat.

The resourceful kitten was filmed by 33-year-old Tania Lizbeth Santos Coy Tova from Mexico who explained how the cat waited for people outside a local supermarket before leading them inside and taking them to the cat food aisle.

“Every time he came to the store, we greeted each other and did the same, he guided me to the shelf and chose the food he wanted,” Tania, who works as a teacher, said in an interview with Metro.co.uk.

As the woman explained, the cat, whom she named Rabbit due to his looks, would lead customers to cat food before reaching for the product he wanted.

As seen in screenshots from the 33-year-old’s video, Rabbit turned around and looked at Tania as they reached the shelves filled with cat food. Then, as the woman picked up one of the food sachets, the stray stood up on his hind legs and reached out for the food with its paws.

Fortunately, the clever cat didn’t have to beg for food forever, whereas he was welcomed into a forever home by Tania and her partner.

“One day I noticed that he had many injuries and I decided to follow him to find out if he had a home,” Tania added.

After realizing that the cat was staying at an abandoned house all alone, the teacher and her partner decided to provide Rabbit with a forever home.
