No birthday is truly complete without a birthday cake crowned with a candle. It’s that one annual wish—how will you spend it, what desire will you harbor? Perhaps a new car, a getaway to Malibu, or even a wish for global harmony or boundless wealth? Well, the wish of one ɱaп became evident almost immediately after the candles were extinguished.

A homeless ɱaп was spotted orchestrating a modest birthday celebration for his two canine companions. He serenaded them with a rendition of ‘Happy Birthday,’ enveloped them in hugs, and treated them to cake, all while perched on the steps of a public park, his sole refuge. Little did he know, a change was on the horizon.

As always, don’t forget to leave your thoughts below. Let’s get into the story!

Well here’s something you don’t see every day! A ɱaп named Choco sat on some stairs at a local park with two dogs wearing party hats

 

 

One sunny evening, a ɱaп walking through a park in Bucaraɱaпga, Colombι̇a, saw a homeless ɱaп throwing what seemed to be a birthday party for his pet dogs. The ɱaп named Choco was sitting on stairs alongside his companions Shaggy and Nena, almost as if basking in the late sunshine, however, the party hats sitting atop of the pup’s heads told a different story.

They were celebrating the birthday of Shaggy the pup. Cake and candles were revealed and he started singing ‘Happy Birthday’

 

 

The bystander decided to capture the event on camera and we’re very glad he did as what happened next is truly heartwarming. Choco gave each of the sleepy pups some pets before unveiling a small cake and candles. He then started singing to his two companions a version of ‘Happy Birthday’. It appeared that it was Shaggy’s birthday and Choco was throwing him a little party.

Two candles were lit on the small cake, the pups carefully observing their owner’s actions, thinking of their wish

 

 

During the song, the two candles were lit up, Choco affectionately petting and clapping to the pups in celebration. Soon the candles were blown out and each dog received a kiss on their tiny puppy cheeks. The ɱaп then grabbed a small plastic knife, looking to cut the cake and the pups finally started gaining more interest.

Choco then cut a slice for each of his companions before cutting one for himself, seemingly getting emotional

 

 

Choco, of course, cut the first pieces to give to his dogs, offering more to each of them from his own plate and it’s hard not to get emotional over the fact that the cake, candles and party hats probably cost the ɱaп a lot of money, but he still put in all that effort for his friends to have the celebration they deserved. It seemed that Choco was wiping a few tears himself.

Could someone please cut the onions in the other room? Thanks. Bring some tissues back as well.

 

 

Once the video was finished, the ɱaп came over to ask some questions and it was revealed that they were homeless

 

 

The ɱaп then watched the birthday boy finish up his cake, leaning in to give him a hug. The other puppy received more kisses afterwards, whilst Shaggy did a sneaky sneak and started monching on the rest of the cake. Can’t say I wouldn’t do the same.

After ending the video, the person filming approached Choco to ask about their lives and to offer help. It was revealed that Choco had spent the last several years living on the streets after escaping an abusive home. Despite the hardship, he’d made sure that Shaggy and Nena were always taken care of to the best of his ability.

After running away from an abusive home, Choco found solace in Shaggy and Nena, who’d become his new family

 

 

The video quickly gained traction, encouraging people to donate food, supplies and money to help get Choco and his pups back on their feet

 

 

Once the video was posted, it quickly went viral, amassing over 440K views. Lots of people decided to come in and help the little family out and get them back on their feet.

The park where the festivities were held has become a gathering spot for other animal lovers, who donated food and other supplies for both Choco and his pups. They also had the ɱaп pose for pictures with their own pups for a little bit of fun, but that was just the beginning.

Someone gifted Choco a new phone, on which he started his Instagram, gaining over 180K followers

 

 

Someone gifted Choco a phone and he was able to start an Instagram account, which now has over 180K followers. On one Instagram Live he opened up about his life, stating that he’s originally from the municipality of El Peñón.

Shaggy was celebrating his 4th birthday and Nena’s 11th birthday would be celebrated in November. He also shared his dream to pursue music and to open an animal shelter. Choco has been selling some shirts, also donating a percentage of the profits to stopping animal abuse.
