Jinx the cat and her owner Mia live in California. Mia rescued Jinx three years ago after hearing meows in the backyard.

"I came home early from a football game. I was supposed to be home much later. I heard meowing in my backyard and discovered her. She was super tiny, only about 3 weeks old," she told MLive.

As Jinx grew older, Mia started noticing peculiarities.

"She had big eyes and as she grew bigger, her eyes didn't get smaller and I also noticed she had big feet. She doesn't have a condition and the vet says she's healthy. She just has these birth defects. She's also not as agile as most cats and is a little clumsy. She only learned how to land on her feet a year ago."

Jinx has since become a viral sensation on social media, with over 738,000 followers on TikTok.

How did a cat in California become the mayor of Hell, Michigan?

"I made a joke on Twitter saying, imagine Jinx will run for President. I had also seen animal mayors before and I sent a Tweet out asking how to make Jinx mayor and someone mentioned Michigan and that you could pay to be mayor of Hell for a day."

So, for $100, Jinx was named Mayor of Hell on Sunday, April 24.

The cost includes a a mayoral proclamation certificate, a Hell souvenir mug, souvenir shirt and certificate of impeachment. The mayor also will own property in Hell. One square inch.

"We love our in-person and distant mayors," said Reverend Vonn of Hell. "Our Mayor of the Day package is the perfect gift for those who are hard to buy for and/or have everything. They get to have one Helluva fun day and at the end of it, will receive the dreaded phone call to be impeached."
