Today’s Monday Muse is brought to you by a stray cat attempting to climb an escalator.
A viral video captured a recent incident at Istanbul’s Sabiha Gökçen Airport in Turkey.
This stray cat repeatedly attempted to climb a descending escalator, struggling to advance against the moving steps. Eventually, a kind bystander intervened and gently redirected the feline to the ascending escalator, which it then rode safely to the top.
Fresh music, bold entertainment, and men’s fashion—one tight email a week.
The moment—equal parts tender and whimsical—was filmed on September 9, 2025, and has since made its rounds across social media. Airport staff were also seen assisting the cat, ensuring its safe passage upward.
Scope out all the tenderness and whimsy right below!
