Granny Shows Grandson Her “Cats” — Then He Sees Last One And Bursts Out Laughing

“She kinda just sat there,” Eric recalled. “Then she got a little closer … and slowly looked up at me with the biggest grin on her face and said, ‘Well, he hasn’t bothered me yet, so I’m OK with him being here!'”

Grandma has accepted the opossum — and interestingly, so too have the real cats hanging out at her place. None seem bothered by him, presumably having been aware of his true identity all along.

It’s unclear exactly how Tete came to end up with a cohort of kitties, but there’s a chance he was orphaned. Eric came to learn later that the opossum was just a baby, then thought to be a kitten, when he first showed up to his grandmother’s house looking for food and warmth.

The fact Eric’s grandmother welcomed him in then, and even now that she knows the truth, speaks to the power of kindness.

“She loves animals and taking care of them whenever she can,” Eric said. “It kind of just motivates you to do better and treat other beings better too.”
