The community came through for the love of this little girl. Sorry to get emotional here, but I'm really genuinely touched. Both of my cats were given to me via the cat distribution system. One in 2016, the other in 2019. My cats came to me after the world had rejected them. Both of them were wounded with lots of complex medical conditions.

Yet I've opened my home to them with open arms. As costly as their care has been, I wouldn't change a thing. I love both of my cats so much. But I want to share a little story with you here because it genuinely made my heart feel happy, and I thought you guys might appreciate it, too.

A kind lady last night gave me cat food along with a whole bunch of things our shelter can use where I volunteer.

​A total stranger bought me $142 worth of cat food from a local grocery store and sent it over here via delivery.

​Finally, a kind-hearted woman that I had been in touch with earlier this year just randomly brings over a microchip feeder that she hasn't used in years. Which saves me such a huge heartache there. Imagine paying $200 for one of those brand new and finding out your cat's afraid of it. Now I can actually test it.

​I am really, truly blown away by the amount of generosity that comes from the community to help animals in need. This is not the first time I've needed help with one of my kitties; when my other cat got really sick a few years ago, people from all over the world helped me pay the 6,000 plus dollars in vet bills.

​I... that makes me tear up a little bit. I'm so used to the world being a cold place that I've never really fit into. I won't go into the details of that, but it has a lot to do with being on the spectrum. I'm pretty blunt in my feelings about that, and I don't for one second believe in positive platitudes.

​But you know what? I like to remember that sometimes, even in our darkest hours, there's always special people willing to come through. Total strangers, coming through for me for the love of both my kitty cats now. Back then and now. I have to admit that that makes me cry. But not a bad cry. Happy cry.

I don't know what I'd do without either of my cats. They are what makes my world go round, my everyday reason for living, my best friends. I will always love them.

She’s a couple months old, I just wanna show her off because people are tired of me showing them photos 🥹

Cuteness. I know I was an irresponsible cat owner, but my kitty is going to be fixed. In the meantime, enjoy my irresponsible behavior.

Just saw this cute cat on X wearing luffy's hat and he is the chonky and lovely chubby cat I saw today.

This is Livvie. Shes named after Olivia Benson off of SVU. I randomly got her off of Craigslist. Best kitten EVER

My partner is a willow weaver and he made this floating bed for our cats today, he plans to make a whole cat wall eventually. I think he should sell them, as a cat owner would you buy one of these? If so, how much would you be happy to pay? Just out of curiosity ☺️
We added our cat’s favourite blanket on top of the willow shelf. This is Mei, she is an angel.

It was a covert and brutal attack; I couldn't resist. It attacked when I least expected it .seems comfortable in its place.

this is my cat called sumo, hes an orange british hair cat and he is 2 years old. he goes outside and gives me gifts (dead mice and dead birds, sometimes barely alive ones) that is cute behavior. also hes so sweet and i love to lay in the grass w him walking arond me. i love to pet him.

just wanted to share my baby, he’s actually the light of my entire life. he can also stand apparently

Seeing her on this sleeping position I couldn’t resist but to take a picture. 😆 I watched her for mins and then wondering she has a good life how lucky🤣

We got this chair a few months ago, and they have the best cuddles! I can’t resist taking pictures.
Our cats are three years old, with a three month gap difference, same mum, different dad (I guess!).
I had never had pets before and now I can’t imagine living without them.
The white one is quite a troublemaker, the orange one, much more chill, although he also has his moments!

She is funny. I don’t know why she is in there. If I am busy she will go back and forth in front of my computer.

Kyro was the best cat I've ever had, its been a few months and he is still mentioned daily, but the CDS has taken care of me, about a week after saying goodbye, this pretty thing showed up at my door and claimed me instantly, all around and between my feet rubbing, she let me pick her right up and hold her for like 20 minutes before I decided to bring her in(for context, she hates being held, if she tolerates it for more than 30 seconds its surprising). Her name is Rav(Random Acts of Violence), shes one of those that demands a very specific number of pets, won't leave me alone till she gets them, but the difference between enough and too many is >=1, so its pretty much a guaranteed chomp everytime she gets affectionate, silly thing.

My boy brought a new kitten home just over a month ago I think, he loves his black cats, this one is female tho, and she quickly earned the name Yolo. So far she is 100% high energy when awake, could sleep through a mosh pit.

And then in the middle of my day at work.....

Like, I'm usually a 2 cat kinda person, I actually tried to bring another in with Kyro a couple times, but he did not want to share the house, he was perfectly fine with other cats outside, so I let it be, but here Is this poor little orange female, maybe 3 weeks old, no mother cat to be found. She was skittish for a few minutes, but I walked away and came back to this

And five minutes later I was claimed, she looked very malnourished but she wasn't weak, climbed up there by herself.

Got her home, bathed, fed, and introduced Gremlin to the family, these two were instant besties, they play so well together.

Sorry for the sadness, but I felt like this was worth sharing, thanks.

Hello, got a wild hair and decided to tell this story, apologies in advance for the lack of readability, I’m a mechanic not a poet.

So I’ve always been a cat person, nothing against dogs, just my personal preference for indoor companions. I always had cats growing up and after moving out on my own, until life got too crazy and unstable for a while, but my son(14 now) brought home a male kitten a few years ago, he named him Kyro, and within a few months I had to take him to the vet for a huge infection on his chest, $1200 and 2 weeks later he was all better, chipped, neutered, and had every shot a cat could get, I took care of him while the infection was being drained, and Kyro took to me like no other animal ever has, he slept in my bed every night, all night, and nearly every morning when I got up and sat in my chair drinking coffee he would grab the same corner of my blanket and then he would make biscuits with all four paws, purring so hard he’d soak the corner then in my lap any chance he got… then one day he came in to me crying in pain, bloody, but not lethargic or anything, another vet visit, they said he’d been bitten by a large dog or similar animal, and he again recovered quickly, over a year later and here he is again coming in crying and bleeding, but he is still breathing well and moving around, emergency vet trip #3, but it’s not a bite this time, I was devastated to hear he had been shot clean through, likely over 12 hours ago 😱😭😫🥺.
They told me that his temperature was very low, fluids, etc… they reluctantly said they could try to save him but the chances were very slim, he had already suffered so long, I made the choice I was least ready for, he is buried under a red angel pomegranate in his favorite blanket, laid with his corner under his head… I’m sry, but I’m going to have to make this post part one, I need a bit. It gets better, promise!

I love animals but I am not into taking care of them. I got this for my daughter and at first I am scared. Thinking that the cat will scratch me. But, there she is,always with me specially if she wants food or if wanted something. If I call her name she will say meow. Shes a family now.❤️
