His Royal Majesty. Mittens the King. The King Of Wellington. Wellington Morale Officer. That's just a few of the names that Mittens—the local superstar of New Zealand's capital—is being called. Mittens is a 10-year-old handsome boy of the Turkish Angora breed. The lovely, slightly orange chap is loved by pretty much everyone in Wellington, so it should come as no surprise that this adorable cat has his very own Facebook group with over 30k members from all over the world.
Every day, the people of Wellington, as well as the capital's tourists, take pictures of Mittens the cat and share them in the group. He is allowed to come and go nearly everywhere—from churches to strip clubs, nothing is off-limits for this cat. He'll also follow people home, nap on their beds, or come to their offices and just chill. But no need to worry—this famous cat does have an owner and goes home to his family (including a brother Latte) every night. So scroll down below to see some of the photos of Mittens that people have shared on this Facebook group called The Wondrous Adventures of Mittens and vote for the random encounters you liked the most!

"Blessed to have my daughter’s bike seat approved of by His Majesty!
Mittens got comfy and didn’t want to be removed but fortunately, his owner came along to take him home. (I wasn’t game to move the bike with him sitting there.) In the meantime, he got lots of pats and attention from friendly passersby."

We asked Sam whether she was lucky enough to get to meet the Royal Mittens, to which she replied: "I have met Mittens myself. I have seen him at the SPCA a couple of times. I have never met him out in the wild as I am not often in town. The couple of times I have been in town I have not been able to find him.In person he is just as floofy and charming as he looks! He is so loving and friendly and makes cute trilling noises to say hello."

"Mittens hanging out at The Rogue & Vagabond tonight. When I spotted him, I screeched and ran across the street like a mad woman. His Floofiness allowed me to sit beside him and pet his glorious head. Day made!"

Bored Panda asked Sam whether everyone in Wellington knows Mittens: "I wouldn’t say everyone knows him but a large majority do! For the most part, shops and businesses let him come and go as he pleases! There are a couple that have refused him entry, or kicked him out when he tried to visit, but they’re just missing out!"
