A tuxedo fat cat is drawing visitors by the dozen to the Polish city of Szczecin

Gacek, an overweight street cat is the top-rated tourist attraction in the Polish city of Szczecin. Szczecin, a city in Poland, has plenty to offer to visitors, but everything falls pale in front of this cat. The tuxedo cat rose to fame in 2020, after a local news site featured the cat in a video that subsequently went viral on social media; people have been showering Gacek with positive reviews ever since.
According to a local woman, the cat was first seen in Kaszubska Street in downtown Szczecin around 10 years ago. He stuck around and people started liking him. Many of them also started feeding him—so from a skinny cat, he soon turned into a chunky boy, which made him more adorable. Gacek, whose name means “long-eared bat” in Polish has nearly 2,600 reviews on Google, more than any other attraction in the city. Most of those who posted a review awarded the purring feline the maximum five stars, making him the top-rated tourist attraction in the city.
