I Won the Claw Machine... and a Real Cat Came Out

Brazilian Couple's Experience at Local Gas Station
Protected at Rest Area, Adoption Not Possible

A video showing a cat coming out instead of a doll after successfully winning a doll claw machine installed at a gas station in Brazil has become a hot topic.

On the 11th (local time), according to the British Daily Mail and others, Suares stopped briefly at a rest area in Niaoksi while traveling with his wife to visit family in Bonito, Brazil.

After having a snack and resting, Suares challenged the doll claw machine and succeeded in winning an elephant doll on his first try.

His wife started filming with her smartphone to capture the moment Suares was winning the doll. However, at the moment Suares moved the doll and dropped it into the chute, a live cat, not the elephant doll, jumped out of the machine.

The cat, which had been sleeping in the passage where the dolls come out, woke up when the elephant doll fell and came out.

Unlike the surprised couple, the cat that came out of the doll claw machine strolled leisurely and stretched comfortably. Suares hugged the cat and happily said, "So cute."

Suares said, "As soon as I saw the cat jump out of the doll claw machine, I picked it up. It was so cute," adding, "It was the best gift I have ever received from playing the doll claw machine. Who else has ever won a live cat?"

Suares tried to take the cat, which appeared like fate, with him, but the cat was under the care of the rest area staff.

The staff said the cat's name was 'Garfield.' Suares said, "The cat already had a guardian, so I couldn't adopt it. It was disappointing."
