A cat tip-toed through a muddy path, taking careful steps to keep its paws clean in central China.

The funny video was filmed in Xinyang City in Henan Province on February 11. A cat was observed carefully navigating through a muddy section of the road. With each step, the feline moved cautiously, seemingly anxious about getting its paws dirty. It strategically chose drier spots to step on and even opted to tread on stones to avoid the worst of the mud.

After traversing the challenging terrain, the fastidious cat took the extra step of shaking off any clinging mud from its paws, displaying a clear preference for cleanliness.

2月11日，河南信阳，一只中华田园猫在经过一段泥泞的路段时，每一步都走的小心翼翼，生怕泥泞弄脏了自己的脚。它尽量选择干一点的地方下脚，还知道去踩石头，走完最糟糕的路段，还要去甩一甩脚上的泥巴，真是一只有洁癖的猫咪。
