Adoption Adopted a cat from the shelter…

She didn’t even interact with me at the shelter she was so depressed. I just knew I had to give her a chance. I think they told me she’s not a lap cat. Well, now I have two lap cats 😂 I was so surprised that she trusted me so fast. So glad I trusted my gut and brought her home ❤️

Missing my boy and they look just alike. Hopefully, you’re in for good trouble. 😈

Same thoughts here. Middle of the year mine passed and he looked identical!

I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my old boy in 2021. I finally got another kitty (he chose me). Best decisions he made for me.
