The young woman lives in a three-storey house.
It wasn't the entire house that was affected by the breakdown, just the top floor.
Sweltering heat
It took her about a week before she could get it repaired. In the meantime, her cats could have stayed cool on the first two floors of the house. But instead, Ellie noticed that her cats would pop upstairs to the top floor from time to time.
Ellie went to check how they were getting on... And what she found had her in stitches. She quickly snapped a photo of her cat Chevy, and shared it in a TikTok video last week with the caption: "He's alive and well, but what drama!"
Oscar-worthy performance
In the photo, Chevy looks utterly dejected. Lying on his tummy, Chevy stares at the ceiling. He appears to be contemplating life, his gaze lost in thought. Rather than heading back downstairs to enjoy the cool air, he stayed put, pondering his life choices...
Ellie explained that her cat pulls this face constantly. He wasn't suffering from the heat - it's just his usual expression!
1.5M people have watched the video on repeat on TikTok: *"He's absolutely melting, oh my goodness!" And: "Tell them it's molten lava outside."
Fortunately, Ellie's cats can enjoy the cool air on the lower floors whenever they fancy!
