It makes me so happy to see how my dad spends his retirement. I hope one day, I can have days that feel like it’s purposeful, but also includes mid-day naps, K-dramas, and cat time. #catdadha #dad #cats #dayinthelife

This Tiktoker shared a day in their 76-year-old dad’s life, and the internet can’t get enough!

After retiring in 2019, he found a new passion for making cat beds and toys to Support rescue cats.

Instead of going out and buying cat toys ad supplies from the pet store, he makes everything from scratch! He starts by drawing the designs for the cats toys, cutting them out with scissors, and measuring fabric.

“He designed all the toys and and made the patterns out of real state mailers! – Even though he’s technically retired, my dad loves having something to do everyday!”

With an estimated 7.6 million animals enter America’s shelters every year, it’s more important than ever to adopt not shop, volunteer. This viral video serves as a heartwarming reminder to give back in any way that we can!
