“Devastating” pet camera footage showing a lonely cat

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, many of us are spending much more time at home than usual. It certainly affects our relationship with our loved ones and pets. Most pets are happy with this overdose of their owner’s attention, because they are never alone and don’t have to feel left out when their owner heads to work. I’ve often wondered what my cats do all day when I go out. I kind of assumed the cats just go about their business and do their cat hobbies: sleeping, eating, and wreaking havoc on my house.

The fact that pets feel sad and alone when their owners leave even for an hour was proven by Ida Myrin. I’ve never actually decided to find out, and, after watching this video of this cat, I’m too afraid to! It’s super cute how much cats truly love us, yet very, very sad. She shared a video that she took with a hidden camera of her cat, who was left alone in an empty apartment for less than an hour. This video is truly heartbreaking. The cat owner, from Varmland, Sweden, said the longer she watched the clip, the more distressing it became, despite initially thinking it was cute. This little fellow’s name is Isola and he turned 3 years old. Ida says that they “got him when he was 12 weeks old from a breeder (Maggiedolls) and he’s a ragdoll.” Isola has a very playful and loving personality, but sometimes he gets lazy.

The cat comes from the kitchen with a leash

At the beginning of the video, Isola comes from the kitchen with a leash between his teeth. His eyes search for a trace of his owner and when he cannot find her, he starts to meow in a very sad manner. At one point, he lets go of the leash and starts to look in every corner of the apartment hoping to see her. Without any luck, he then grabs the leash once again, but this time, his meowing is even more heartbreaking. Ida explained that she already has another cat that she had to take to the vet at the time when the video was filmed. She didn’t want to hurt him and certainly didn’t expect him to act this way. Ida Myrin’s cat Isola appeared so distraught after being left at home for just 30 minutes she now feels she can never leave him alone again. Watch the video, the poor cat is so sad when he can’t find his owner.

Well, the good news is that the famous cat is happy now and didn’t have to wait a long time for his owner to come back. Ida even shared a picture that she took when she arrived home with her other cat⁠—her two feline friends laying together and enjoying each other’s company.
