Lakewood, Colorado - The staff at the Cat Care Society know that Theodore the kitty is extremely shy, but now things appear to have taken a strange and adorable turn!

As The Dodo reports, a cat carer named Michelle recently noticed something odd about a seat cushion on the floor of the facility.

She thought she'd placed it at one end of the room, but now it had mysteriously moved to the other.

With a frown, she turned away – only to notice movement in the corner of her eye shortly after.

Then she could hardly believe her eyes – the pillow was moving!

Completely confused, the young woman lifted the cushion up and made an extremely curious discovery.

As a viral video shows, the cheeky little cat was found hiding underneath the cushion so that he could scurry around the room unnoticed.

The video's on-screen text says, "When you're new to the floor and you're kind of shy" and the caption reads, "Theodore is still adjusting but, we still love him."

While Michelle found the cat's little game equal parts hilarious and cute, she decided to make a small sign for the floor cushion so that no one would accidentally crush Theodore.

"Do not sit or step on me," the sign reads. "My name is Theodore + I identify as a turtle and am under here!"

Hopefully, all the attention from his viral post will help him to find a loving family as quickly as possible who will accept him for who he is.
