Simon is a lovely cat that has discovered an odd approach to get rid of “pests” in his house.
He transforms them into visitors.

Benjamn Sagredo, Simon’s owner, began hearing unusual noises emanating from his kitchen in Punta Arenas, Chile, a few weeks ago. Sagredo wasn’t concerned because the sounds were faint and only happened once in a while.
“We had no idea what it was,” Sagredo said to The Dodo. “We’d seen Simon tinkering with something beneath an armchair before, but we didn’t think much of it.”
Simon had become aware of an intruder who was producing these noises, and he determined to make him feel at ease.

Sagredo came into an unexpected scene one morning as he was preparing to enter the kitchen. Simon was there, sipping from his water dish. He was accompanied by a mouse.
The bighearted feline had allegedly made friends with the prey he was bred to pursue.
“They seemed to know one other well.” “Simon was being adoring,” Sagredo explained. “I made the decision to videotape it.” “I didn’t think anyone would believe me.”
Here’s a video of that moment:
Sagredo was taken aback. When Sagredo saw Simon’s kind attitude toward the mouse, he couldn’t help but agree.
“I pity the poor little mouse.” “I couldn’t bear the thought of injuring him,” Sagredo explained. “I gave him the moniker Chefcito.”
Simon’s kindness was infectious.
