    Kitties can be particular about who they choose to cuddle with. Their standards aren't entirely known, so it's always interesting to see who they pick. One stray cat can relate. He found someone to spend time with during the chilly fall nights and it's not even a person.

    With Halloween near, a spooky outdoor skeleton makes the perfect spot for this kitty to snooze on. Check her and her new "boo" out!

    Ever since Justice Lee ( @threadedgypsy ) first shared a video about this cat , the adorable baby boy is capturing hearts all over the web. Lee also mentioned his presence triggered the Ring camera which caught a second stray sharing the skeleton's lap. The figure's cozy clothes are cozy and comforting so of course the kitties want to snuggle up.

    Among the more than 42,000 likes, fans are obsessed with this sweet boy and his sleep space choice.

    "Every cat's dream… a body that doesn’t move once you lay on it," one person wrote.

    "She's like..'what are YOU doing here?'" another said.

    "You’ll have to just put a Holiday themed hat on it so you can keep it out all year," another suggested.

    At least for now, kitty and friends have a safe place to lay their heads at night.

    What To Do If You Find a Stray Cat

    As cute as cats are, not everyone is in the position of taking one in. There could be many reasons the cat has chosen a particular property, be it because they found food, they're social and looking for their new people after being abandoned, or because you have a cuddly skeleton sitting outside for the cat to nap on!

    Regardless, TheHumane Society of the United States has a few suggestions on what to do if you find a stray cat . First, you want to determine what kind of "stray" the cat is. If there's a collar or microchip, he or she likely belongs to someone. A tipped or notched ear means the "community" cat has been spayed or neutered. And, if they look otherwise healthy, someone else may be feeding them.

    Next, assess how social the cat is. A friendly kitty can mean he or she had a home somewhere or is being taken care of by someone, where a feral cat will be harder to approach.

    Talk to neighbors to rule out anyone who may be missing a cat. If there's no luck, post on social media, post fliers, and reach out to the local shelter to file a found cat report. If you're not able to foster the kitty for long, see if the local shelter can aid with putting him or her with a rescue, though community cats or free-roaming cats may already come and go and do not have pet parents looking for them.

    When in doubt, contact your local shelter! Not all strays are lost. And, if all else fails, put a skeleton out on your porch so at least the kitty can have a nice nap!
