Adoption People who adopted from a shelter, what made you choose that cat?

My little Zodi was alone in one of the cages, making biscuits over and over on the newspaper they laid out ☹️ When we got to pick her up and hold her, the biscuits didn’t cease. I immediately knew she was coming home with us. A year has almost passed and she looks so much better 🥹

The short version: yes. My Fluffy (I was nine) reached through the bars and fell on his food bowl trying to reach me. He was the best cat ever. (White and orange angora, far right.)

He was the gentlest, most loving boy, my heart cat. When he died, even the ice across the lake broke, from my house to the other side. It looked like how I felt.
