A couple and their new cat have gone viral on TikTok after it was revealed that the feline was included in their recent purchase of a new home.

Tori Taillac, an aesthetic physician assistant in Salt Lake City, Utah, and her fiancé, Alex Kravets, moved into their new place last month.

I shared a peek at the new flooring we were putting in previously. It is a blond wood that closely matches the original cabinetry finish. One of the things that I loved about the Avion Trailer vs Airstreams was the solid wood that was lighter in finish. I love Airstreams too- don’t get me wrong-
