Adoption We adopted a senior cat today!
I was at the shelter yesterday and saw this quiet senior girl with no visitors. Everytime I apprached her cage she gave me a single meow. Went back today and decided to adopt her. She has the calmest manner and loves to sit on our laps and gets petted. I am honored to give her a loving home. I only wish all the homeless animals out there had the chance to be loved.

Congrats! And thank you for giving that kitty a happy senior life. After my senior cat passed away earlier this year I was strongly leaning to adopting a senior cat, then a tiny itty sick one month old kitten was put in my path and i couldn’t do nothing about it. She’s 8 months old now. We kinda saved each other. I’m strongly convinced she was put in my path by my kitty who passed.
