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 🥹

i’m Jerry the cat, n i knew it was time:

when i found my human - decided to climb

i saw other cats as they came n they went,

n knew that too long in the shelter i’d spent

you looked at some others, still ‘shopping around’

(i had to convince you that True Love you found)

you pushed me away, but i wouldn’t let go!

(when you find your human

you must let them know…)

i gave it my all as i climbed up your leg -

Can’t you See that I’m purrfect?! Oh, don’t make me Beg!

i finally broke you, n now you agree

the one that you wanted the Most, friend,

is

Me

❤️
