Its kind of like King Kong but starring a kitten going on a rampage inside a dollhouse.
The quirky image was taken by a Texas family hoping to help five foster kittens get adopted through the Austin Pets Alive animal shelter.
Cade Ritter, 18, took the photo and posted it on Reddit, where it quickly went viral, generating over 2 million page views.
The detailed dollhouse was made by Ritters great-grandfather, and even includes functioning lights.
The chandelier-gnawing kitten was considered the wildest of the litter and was adopted.

(1,495 posts)7. So are they saying the house in the second Pic is the same as the one that kitty is destroying?
Because I don't see a staircase or that chandelier in that second photo.
Am I just missing it??

(112,128 posts)8. I was also trying to find the staircase.
I have a feeling they ran some stock photo instead.

And one kitty, at least, got a home out of it!
My friends in animal rescue tell me that social media is the way to go when adopting out cats, so I hope the other ones get homes, too.
