California Cat Named After The God Of Mischief Has One Hilarious Obsession
A playful cat named Loki lives up to his mischievous name, but his strange choice in toys has completely captured his owner’s heart.
Living Up To His Name
When you name a pet after the God of Mischief, you have to expect a little bit of chaos.
For one cat named Loki, the title was an absolute perfect fit.
If he gets bored for even a single second, he immediately starts looking for trouble around the house.
His owner frequently catches him sneaking into cabinets or knocking over the garbage can just to steal a quick snack.
The Art Of Getting Away With It
Despite his constant antics, Loki rarely finds himself in actual trouble.
He learned very quickly that if you are cute and affectionate with people, you can get away with a whole lot more.
Loki knows exactly when he is crossing the line.
He will look right at his owner when told not to do something, pause for a moment, and then do it anyway.
A Star Pupil Seeking Attention
Beyond his rebellious streak, Loki is incredibly bright and thrives on interaction.
He absolutely loves being the center of attention and wants to be around people all the time.
To keep his clever mind busy, his owner taught him how to do tricks.
When they practice tricks together, like giving a high-five, Loki is thrilled because he is getting the focused attention he craves.
Love At First Sight With A Balloon
Loki doesn’t need expensive toys to stay entertained.
In fact, anything you give him, he falls completely in love with.
His very first true love was a simple balloon left out in the kitchen.
When he spotted it, his owner remembers him looking as if to say, "Oh my God, is that for me?" He proudly carried the balloon around the house for two whole days until it finally deflated.
The Great Potato Thief
While the balloon was a hit, Loki eventually discovered a new, much stranger obsession.
If there is a potato anywhere in the house, Loki is going to find it and play with it.
He has even learned the word "potato" and gets visibly excited the moment he hears it.
If his owner takes a stolen potato away from him, Loki simply walks right back over to the counter to try and swipe another one.
A House Full Of Hidden Treasures
Sometimes, Loki manages to hoard several potatoes at once.
When he has multiple spuds, he gets overwhelmed with joy and doesn’t know which one he likes the most.
He will play with one potato for a few minutes before excitedly jumping over to the next one.
His owner has fully accepted the reality of the situation, admitting they will likely be finding hidden potatoes around the house for months to come.
An Impossible Joy To Resist
No matter how many potatoes he steals or cabinets he opens, Loki’s joyful spirit makes it impossible to stay mad at him.
His owner notes that they have never met another cat who is as happy as Loki is, 24/7.
It is simply impossible not to feel happy when this mischievous little cat is in the room.
For his owner, the messy house and stolen snacks are a small price to pay. "Loki is my best friend," they shared. "I don’t know what I would do without this cat."
