A woman who became one of the latest to experience the cat distribution system needed to work for the prize after initially hearing meows coming from the ceiling.
TikTok user @_martymcflyjr was at home when she heard faint meowing. The first picture in her August 16 TikTok video shows that there is a vent in the ceiling. At the bottom, her cat sat and looked up, also wondering about the meows. Then, a crash came next.
The meows intensified behind her walls. Curiosity got the best of her. She began breaking through the walls to find the cause of the noise and used a French fry to lure out whatever lay beyond the wall. Soon enough, a tiny, furry head popped out through the hole, leaving her speechless.

Not one, but two kittens became the "culprits" of the noise. They somehow managed to get inside the house, but thanks to her, they're safe and sound, away from any dangerous wires or insulation. Looking on the bright side, she referred to them as "hidden treasures" in the video caption.

With no sign of mom, the woman scooped them up and immediately started taking care of them. She gave them food and water. A follow-up video shows the kitties playing with each other, unaware that they frightened this woman.
She began searching for their mother, as she might have been out gathering food when the kittens fell through the walls. The woman explained in a comment on the follow-up video that they did find the mama cat; however, she "does not want to be caught."
The woman told Newsweek via TikTok that since this unusual cat distribution system method came to her, she gave away one of the kittens and is currently looking for a home for the other one.
People flocked to the TikTok video, obsessing over the surprising way she had been blessed with two cats, and as of Thursday, the clip reached over 975,000 views.
"Cat distribution system must be malfunctioning. It's supposed to deposit cats outside your front door, not inside the walls..." joked a viewer.
Another added: "Weirdest cat distribution delivery."
A third user said: "Their sad eyes. Glad you found them."
Many worried that if a cat could get inside, other animals could too, advising her to inspect the house surroundings to avoid potential raccoons and rodents.
