Cinnamon, who is 17 years old, recognizes a good thing when she sees one.
The cat became delighted when she saw Ella Parsons, her human sister, making a delicate white scarf. She had no idea that the scarf would eventually belong to her, but circumstances altered due to a yarn shortage.
According to Callie Parsons, Ella’s sister, “during quarantine, my sister was bored so she decided to knit a scarf with this very gorgeous cashmere yarn that she had.” However, the scarf was quite little and she appeared to have run out of yarn.

Cinnamon, who is 17 years old, is savvy about excellent things.
The cat became ecstatic when she saw her human sister Ella Parsons making a delicate white shawl. She never imagined owning the scarf, but circumstances changed due to a yarn scarcity.
Ella Parsons’ sister Callie Parsons told The Dodo that her sister used some very lovely cashmere yarn she had while in quarantine because she was bored. She eventually ran out of yarn, though, and the scarf was quite little.
“Cinnamon instantly fell in love with it and now wears it around all the time,” Parsons said. “She just likes to sleep and snuggle with it and wear it around the house.”
Cinnamon feels so cozy in her scarf that she refuses to take it off — whether she’s playing outside, eating or napping. “I think Cinnamon loves her scarf because she has never gotten a gift like that before,” Parsons said. “We always get her little catnip treats and play toys, but never something like a blanket.”
And the handmade present couldn’t have come at a better time for Cinnamon.
“Since she is older she likes to sleep a lot so it is definitely something nice for her to snuggle with,” Parsons said. “Cinnamon also sat with Ella while she made it so she knows it was made with love.”
Parsons posted a video of Cinnamon and her precious scarf on TikTok, and within a week, the video gained over 600,000 likes. Cinnamon now has a devoted group of fans, but none are as devoted as Cinnamon is to her little scarf.
“She loves her scarf and gets mad if we try to take it off,” Parsons wrote on TikTok. “If it falls off, she waits for us to put it back on.”
