It is but natural to grow an attachment to someone who provides warmth and comfort.
In the case of Busao, an adorable cat from Japan, that someone is a something: a portable heater which he now considers his BFF.
Busao is feeline so warm now
With the recent spike of freezing temperature in many parts of the world, including Japan, who could blame Busao?

Such urge to feel cozy was expressed by Busao that he appears to have fallen in love with the electric device.
Busao has grown attached to his provider of warmth and comfort
Busao’s owner, Ryuji Tan, shared that his cat had been spending most of its time beside his heater.

“Japan is so cold right now! All he wants is to warm up more,” Tan told Bored Panda.
Busao’s age (9 years) might also explain why he prefers the simpler things in life
In most of his adorable photos, which recently went viral, Busao appears too engrossed in meditation while keeping himself warm that it would be a shame to disturb him.
Busao has earned quite a following on social media since Tan started posting his cute pictures and videos online.
While Busao the cat’s images on Instagram, FaceBook, and YouTube have prompted many to comment on his natural cuteness, not many know he used to be a stray cat.
According to Tan, Busao was an alleycat which he came across at the streets of Ibaraki prefecture, located in the Kantō region.
“Busao was originally a stray cat,” he was quoted as saying. “I think that he is about 9 years old.”
In human years, Busao will be 52 years old, a certified senior who may indeed have very little tolerance for the cold weather.
