Neighborhood Cat and Little Girl's Special Friendship Makes People Tear Up

A little girl in a pink hoodie and white pants stands on a sidewalk facing a black cat, both appearing curious.

This video is centered around the unique bond that's formed between @thecolorfulmother's daughter, Lainey, and the neighbor's cat, Binx. Lainey first met Binx in 2020, and they've been friends ever since.

A toddler in a pink hoodie and skirt stands on a sidewalk, arms raised, facing a black cat sitting on the grass.

On-screen, we see the caption, "Back in March 2020 we started taking daily walks around our neighborhood which is when we met Binx." In this scene, we can see a young, short Lainey walking over to the cat.

We soon see another clip of Lainey going to greet Binx and then another. The video shows her petting Binx and then him running up to her. We also see the pair walking down the sidewalk together.

"He took to our daughter quickly and started greeting her as soon as he saw her coming," the captions continue. Binx quickly became Lainey's best friend since she couldn't play with other children due to the pandemic.

As the video continues, we can see Lainey slowly growing up from clip to clip. Apparently, this friendship has lasted years, and Binx even comes over to their house to visit.

Sadly, they recently noticed a "For Sale" sign at Binx's owner's house. We see a much older Lainey and Binx saying hello to each other for the last time. Viewers of the video are understandably heartbroken, with many encouraging @thecolorfulmother to keep Binx at their home.

However, the TikToker responded to these comments, explaining that Binx would be going with his owners. We're sure he'll be missed! Although the move is a sad moment, there's no doubt that Binx and Lainey shared many great moments together.
