Even the coldest heart has been melted by the tear-jerking video of a cat trying her best to clean her ears after they were cut off due to cancer .

A clip has gone viral on TikTok (@adognamedsid) of Yuki the white cat attempting to clean her ears as normal, only to discover that there was a problem. That’s because Yuki had to undergo surgery in October to remove both her ears following a cancer diagnosis.
