My mom always taught me that I shouldn't judge a book by its cover.
One group of people who often get misjudged are bikers. While they might have rough exteriors, I've found them to be some of the most loyal and caring people out there, like the bikers who helped find a missing wedding ring for a grieving widow.
But when I saw what one particular biker did to help a small animal in need, I was completely floored…
Pat Doody is a biker who hails from New Jersey. Recently, he was traveling cross-country from California on his motorcycle — when his trip took an unexpected turn: in a gas station in Nevada, Pat came upon a small, abandoned kitten. The tiny orange cat appeared to have suffered a burn on its face and was in desperate need of love.
This heartwarming story of how a biker changed the life of a small, defenseless kitten is absolutely beautiful.

Pat Doody is a 32-year-old biker and sheet metal worker who recently received the surprise of a lifetime...
"I was coming back from Born Free in California, and we had made it to Nevada. I was at this truck stop getting gas, and this little guy just needed help," he told Revzilla.
"He was pretty badly burned, so I picked him up and tucked him inside my vest." Pat decided to name this small orange kitten Party Cat and to give him a good home.
Pat told Revzilla, "We're feeding him regularly now, so he's doing better, even though he's sort of living on the road until we get home."
"He's been eating tuna fish out of those dry-foil packs you can buy, and his burns are pretty much all healed up except for the little spot on his lip."
"He's so chill. He just hangs out in my vest when we get on the road. I've never met a cat so calm."
Pat and Party Cat have become quite the inseparable pair. And the story of the biker and his tiny cat has been circulating among bikers all across America.
Now that Party Cat is home, he is eating regular cat food and his burns have healed quite nicely.
Pat and Party Cat certainly seem to be kindred spirits, with both of them having a true appreciation for the open road.
Pat is a true hero for rescuing this poor kitten and nursing him back to health. They may appear to be an unlikely duo, but sometimes great friendship can be found in the unlikeliest of places.
