My cat, Yoko, was a stray I took in 5 years ago. She chose me, too. She saved me, loved me, & turned my life around. Helped me get off of the negative path of addiction, isolation, & self-destruction I was on. She died after a dog attack a month ago & it broke my heart. I know she entered my life for a reason. RIP, baby girl. 💔

This made me cry. Love cats and have experienced how compassionate they can be. Thank you for this.

In beginning, I thought I am giving a little food to my cat. But in return, he gave me his love and whole life. Love u Neptu, punu always loves you.

This is your sign to adopt a cat!

[@christopherevans4743]

My cat , Stella was adopted and now my best friend.

[@vegangelo_29]

Our adopted cats and their kittens also changed my life perspective that I never thought before. It's true that when you adopt a stray cat/kitten or any other animals, you'll become more compassionate and fight for animal welfare.

Ruffy has an orange necklace, just like my tortie did. I miss my girl so much. She died earlier this year. She was only 5-years-old and died of cancer.

[@Nuhadism]

Sorry for your loss. I know too well how that feels. Your girl lived a good life because of you, remember that

[@westcoastorbust2462]

What a rough stage. She deserved better

[@Emma-jd8yj]
