Some cats wait to be invited inside, while Piper simply picked a garage she liked and started showing up for her daily shift.

Reddit user RoxxStardust shared the newest arrival courtesy of the Cat Distribution System, a sweet kitty who appeared a few days ago and quickly turned what could have been a one-time visit into a routine. Piper has returned every day since, happily hanging out in the garage and keeping her new hooman company. At this point, we're not sure "visitor" really covers it anymore. She has regular hours, a favorite hangout spot, and a human who has already given her a name. That sounds suspiciously like residency to us.

Piper isn't keeping her distance, either. She's incredibly loving and has gotten comfortable enough to walk right up whenever she wants attention. Whether she's a stray who stumbled across the purrfect place or someone's adventurous kitty making daily social calls is still a mystery. RoxxStardust plans to keep an eye out for anyone searching for her before making any assumptions.

In the meantime, Piper has herself a safe place to relax and a hooman who clearly doesn't mind having a furry garage supervisor around. There's even talk of building her a little home out there since she seems so attached to the space. A few days of visits and she's already inspiring home renovations. The CDS works fast.

We have to appreciate Piper's strategy here. Why rush into adoption when you can slowly become part of someone's daily life until they start considering building you your own apartment?

Whether Piper already has a family somewhere or chose this garage as the beginning of her next chapter, she certainly knows how to make herself welcome.

At this rate, RoxxStardust may soon realize it's Piper's garage and the hoomans are just allowed to use it.
