The team at the Willows Care Home in Milton Keynes have a new rising star in their midst, as Lifestyle Coordinator Amy Powell has recently gone viral on TikTok!
Whilst shopping in her local area for some Christmas lights, Amy came across something that was not quite like the others… Nestled in between the furry blankets in B&M was a small cat, who had clearly lucked out with a warm place to sleep. Amy thought this was hilarious and took a quick video, which she had planned to show to her friends.
But the animal sightings didn’t stop there! Whilst waiting in the queue at the checkout, she spotted a white pigeon walking around the till area, so she took a second video.
Given the strange occurrence, Amy decided to stitch both videos together and post it to her personal TikTok account. The video immediately took off, reaching over 500,000 views and garnering over 54,000 likes in a short space of time. The video currently sits at 664,000 views and 66,000 likes and is still climbing to this day.
The video spread so wide that it gained the attention of some very popular media sites, and before Amy knew it her story was picked up by the Sun and published in an online article.
Everyone at the Willows has seen the TikTok and have been very excited to see the numbers grow!
