Cat Receives Perfect Christmas Gift After Dog Ruins Favorite Toy
When Chico was discovered as a stray in 2019, no one could have predicted the luxurious life that awaited him. The once-homeless feline was soon welcomed into a loving home, where he embraced the joys of being spoiled.
A New Beginning for Chico
Chico’s journey began when a friend of Tori Roman found him crying outside an apartment door. Calling for help, the friend reached out to Tori, who had just moved into her own home. She decided to take Chico in, giving him a fresh start filled with comfort and affection.
Over time, Chico adjusted seamlessly to his new domestic lifestyle—finding warmth, food, and, surprisingly, a deep attachment to an unexpected object: a velvet clothes hanger.
Chico’s Unusual Obsession
One day, during a typical laundry session, Chico discovered the household’s only velvet hanger. He was instantly enchanted by its soft texture and quickly claimed it as his own. From that moment forward, the hanger became Chico’s prized possession.
Tori and her family soon noticed Chico’s strange but adorable habit—sneaking into the closet to search for his beloved hanger.
“We usually have to pull him away from rummaging through the hangers or just give in and let him play with it,” Tori shared. “It’s his world!”
A Devastating Loss
Chico’s obsession with the velvet hanger went unchallenged until his canine sibling, Murphy, a curious Pit Bull, decided to investigate. Unfortunately, Murphy’s attempt at play ended in disaster—the cherished hanger was destroyed.
Chico was heartbroken. He sat in the closet, staring at the empty space where his favorite toy had once been. The devastation was clear, and his family knew they had to do something to bring back his happiness.
The Perfect Christmas Wish
As the holiday season approached, Chico’s aunt asked what he might like as a Christmas present. Since Chico’s beloved hanger was beyond repair, Tori knew exactly what to request—more velvet hangers. She even sent a video of Chico sitting under the closet, looking lost without his favorite toy.
When Christmas arrived, Chico got exactly what he wanted—a brand-new velvet hanger. The adorable moment was captured in a TikTok video, where Tori announced, “Merry Christmas to Chico!”

A Never-Ending Love for Velvet Hangers
This wasn’t the first—or last—time Chico’s treasured toy had met an unfortunate end due to Murphy’s curiosity. Despite her husband’s indifference toward velvet hangers, Tori continues buying them just to keep Chico happy.
After all, Chico’s love for the simple, fuzzy hanger is unwavering, proving that sometimes, the little things bring the most joy.
Chico’s story is a heartwarming reminder of the unique quirks pets have and the love they bring into our lives. His fascination with velvet hangers may be unusual, but for him, it’s a source of comfort and joy—a small price to pay for a cat who once had so little.
