Curiosity cured the cat

He continues to share his story with Chinese netizens on RedNote. Thomas said he joined the Chinese platform out of curiosity, drawn by its reputation as a space for quiet storytelling, and not viral trends involving "chasing views or shouting to be heard". RedNote is an online community that "feels more human", he said, adding that he never expected to find a sense of belonging on a Chinese social media platform.

People ask questions, remember names, and share their pet stories, with interactions translated back and forth.

"There was kindness. People were curious, respectful. It didn't feel like I had to perform. I could just be myself," said Thomas.

"And then I just became absolutely fascinated with Chinese culture and how America had it all wrong for so long. Now I honestly think I want to move me and my fur babies there."

As responses came in from users around the world — many of whom had never owned a pet or thought about strays — Thomas realized his content was not just about cats anymore.

"It's about what they represent: survival, healing, family, whatever that means to you," he said.

His experience on RedNote was proof small moments can resonate across borders, he said.

"One act of kindness can change everything, and sometimes that big thing you're looking for might come in a small package," said Thomas. "So, keep your eyes open for your hole in the fence — that's what I always like to say now."
