A simple typo has sent the internet on a laughter episode after a Delhi resident mistakenly referred to his beloved feline family as "cars" instead of "cats." The trivial yet hilarious mix-up was noticed on a Reddit post, which has gone viral, sparking a wave of witty comments and affectionate responses from netizens.
Reddit user 'Maximum Protege' shared two photos online and titled it, "Four Orange Small Cars". The now-viral Reddit post was further captioned to read: "This car comes at my door every day to eat. She has now given birth to four little cars. That's it, that's what I wanted to share." Yes, the post read "cars" while actually referring to cats.
It caught the attention of people after r/delhi reposted it.

Of the two clicks, one featured an orange stray cat eating near a wall and another a hidden nook with four tiny orange kittens curled up in a basket.
The post was intended to share a heartwarming update on the cat and her adorable kittens, but the unintentional typo created a buzz and stirred up funny reactions.
Netizens react
Netizens joined the fun on Reddit after noticing the catty "car" post. They quickly flooded the comments section.
One user quipped, using laughter emojis, "Is this car an Indian brand?". Another amusingly went naming the cats after luxury car brands, calling them Lambar, Ghinni, Paginni, and Ferrari.
Amid these playful responses, many users encouraged the Delhi man to take good care of the mother cat and her newborn kittens, offering advice on feeding and handling the felines.
Jokes apart, some advice on cat care surfaces
One user shared a thoughtful tip: "You can feed them normal chapati and food mixed with these treats, they ain’t good in the long term unless you plan on keeping them all. Also, the cat will keep displacing them often and they won’t find these treats there, though she may bring them back. If you plan on touching them, be careful of their mother—if she trusts you enough, you need to imprint on them while they are still very young. Once they are 3-4 months old, they won’t usually let anyone touch them so easily."
The Delhi resident, who has been caring for the cat for two years, responded with warmth, expressing his deep bond with the feline: "I've been feeding this cat for about two years now from when she was a kitten. Before her, it was her 'father' for around four years. And yes, she's incredibly trusting."
