Cat comes to the rescue and unlocks door for its owner stuck outside
Breaking news: A cat made itself useful. No, really!
When student Gabby Tropea found herself accidentally locked out of her house, she decided to try the back sliding door. Unfortunately, that turned out to be locked, too. This is where Boco, her cat comes in.
The rear door was locked with a wooden bar, which needed to be removed. Tropea managed to trick Boko into clawing at the bar by tapping on the glass, and eventually, Boko managed to unlock the sliding door.

Luckily, Tropea captured the majestic unlocking. It's not everyday that we get to see cats being cute and helpful.
Boko, a brown tabby, is currently going viral, as pets often do on Twitter.
"I'm proud to share my smart boy!" Tropea told Mashable about his newfound internet fame.

Tropea says she found Boko under a bench at her university one night. "In retrospect, I probably shouldn't have picked up a visibly ill stray cat, but I did ..." she told Mashable. Now, he's healthy and "clever" and she's getting "hilarious" messages from people fangirling over Boko.
Tropea is unclear if she'll play stage mom to her cat, saying that she would only make an Instagram for Boko if the demand continues to be high.
"I feel like people would only be interested in for, like, a week, though," she admitted. "The internet moves fast."
Well, Boko may have unlocked the door to his house, but he also unlocked our hearts in the process.
