A loyal cat has been bringing his owner small gifts every day in a show of affection. After all, the cat’s owner has been dead for over a year.

Toldo—a cute, 3-year-old black and white cat lives in Montagnana, northern Italy. Toldo has been visiting his owner—Iozzelli Renzo, who died on September 22, 2013, aged 71—every day for the past year and leaving small presents at the grave.

The gifts usually consist of leaves, sticks, plastic cups or paper towels.

“Even today I went to the cemetery with Toldo. On the way back, someone I know told me the cat has already been there early this morning,” Renzo’s wife, Ada, told the Corriere Fiorentino.

Neighbors have also seen Toldo wandering around the cemetery through the day. It started the day of the funeral, when the cat followed the coffin from the house to the cemetery.

The next morning, Ada went to the grave again. “We went to the cemetery with my daughter and found a flower on the grave. I immediately thought that it was the cat, but my daughter was convinced that I was just in a very emotional state at that moment.” She told the news source.

That night, however, Renzo’s son returned to the cemetery and found Toldo standing guard at the grave. Ada says that her late husband shared a particularly strong bond with Toldo—he’d adopted the cat from a cat colony when he was just 3 months old.

Unfortunately, not everyone believes in the moving relationship between Toldo and his owner. Ada said that people often try to drive the cat away. “There are insensitive people who send him away with stones or other things, convinced that the presence of an animal in the cemetery is not good.” She told the news source. Still, Toldo continues to visit the grave every day.
