I love that he wanted to get her them for Christmas and called her first to ask her. Not worth a surprise if it turns out the person doesnt want them or cant take care of them. Love seeing someone finally ask first before gifting.
Agree with this comment so much… my “friend” tried to surprise me with a three month old kitten last year, knowing that I really love cats,. But as sweet as he was I told her I couldn’t accept him bc I have a Jack Russell terrier who likes to hunt small animals and hates cats especially, and I work all day, I will never be home enough for a kitten, I already have trouble trying to find time to walk my dog everyday. She got mad at me and called me selfish bc I didn’t accept the cat, and accused me of not caring if he was alive or not. She doesn’t understand that my very hyper dog would try to kill it everyday until the job was done. If it wasn’t for my dog, I would’ve e gotten a cat already myself. Finding a cat was never the issue. I know better then to bring one into my home at this time. Having a pet is a lifetime commitment. It’s not like she was gifting me a shirt that I turned down. You can’t just surprise someone like that, especially if you don’t live with them or really understand their living situation. The thought is nice but always ASK FIRST!
@@missvness730 I’ve seen a few really sweet videos of ppl getting surprised with pets, but yeah I agree. Always ask first. I would love a kitten but nervous about how my cat would react. That boy is NOT a cat person lol. Last time he lived with other cats (I was staying with a relative temporarily) he was peeing in my damn bed to mark his territory! So yeah I’m not willing to chance it lol
@@sciencestuffs8978 she really was. I kept giving her chances and strikes after she would do something and end up forgiving her, but I finally woke up and realized how toxic and selfish she really was. I was holding on too long bc I was desperate for some friendship, but I rather be alone than be friends with someone is constantly inconsiderate of my feelings and situation. It was exhausting! But hey I have my RUclips cat videos to keep me occupied lol
My female black cat was the same with my dad. When he was feeling weak or bedridden in bed or the recliner, she'd sleep next to him or on him... And he hated cats for years until her haha.
@@LegaltTO My grandfather hated cats until I lived with my grandparents with mine. He fell in love with them, especially one in particular. All are passed now but it’s a good memory. ☺️
These cats know that this dad is a keeper. On a more serious note, the cats probably imprinted on the dad because he rescued them. I rescued an old cat (13 yrs ) from an adoption shelter that was not coping too well and she never left my side. We live in the country and I could walk her around our property off lead and she would go out and come in with me, like a shadow. Cats pick their humans
Yes I wondered that, about the cats imprinting on the husband as he's the one who went to get them... So a lesson for people wanting to give surprises, apart from the number saying how good he asked his wife first, absolutely, living beings as surprise gift is pretty crazy really, such a commitment.. but also best to take the recipient to the initial meeting too, so there is equal imprinting, or at least an equal chance. Bless them all, obviously all loving, but would be nice for the wife if the cats shared their attention more evenly .. esp as it sounds like she does most of the cat-related chores!
Is not always that reason, my girl and I got a bunch of cats and they have been always specially fond of me. Even with my girl being the one who feed them, clean their box, etc. You know why? Because I'm the one who most plays with them, for animals play time is a super serious and important thing, and believe It or not, is what they give more importance of all.
Guys. Cats go for the human that let's them have their control. In other words, the one that leaves them alone. This video format of "He's not the one that wanted the cats, now look at him" has become a trope for that reason. Cats like to control their interactions.
My cat is the same! He was a very shy scared cat, but he always stuck around me, 2 years later he is more confident now and waits for me to come home from school
Sorry, but neither this man nor you "rescued" those cats or your girl cat. You adopted them from a rescue/shelter who were the ones involved in rescuing them from the situation they were in. You gave her a home and love and not to be in stress at the rescue anymore which is harder on senior kitties. Rescuing them means to actually be the one to either take them off the street as a stray or from a neglectful situation.
This is amazingly an adorable bunch. Nice guy, for cats to love on him THAT MUCH. Kitties can be reticent with people, and they're only SUPER lovey, with gentle, loving people. So nice to see this. Thanks.
UPDATE: I found two kittens in a drainage ditch where I live. On and off I have been seeing a man who lives across from me. I brought the kittens to him, 8 months previous he adopted two. He relocated he is an RN and is renting a tiny house cabin and as am I, of course he couldn't keep he melted my heart when he couldn't go to sleep without naming them, we went camping last weekend on the way there he was talking about how much he'd miss them. :-)You know a man loves you when he's a dog person and he wants to give you two cats ❤️
You can prefer dogs but still like cats though. The only good reasons to dislike cats imo is severe allergy or childhood trauma(it's of course completely fine to just not want to have a cat though, not everyone has the space, time and money). People that dislike cats for any other reason are a red flag. Best case scenario they completely lack a sense of humor.
Same here. My girlfriend wanted a cat, so we went to the rescue to check them out. She picked the one, but had to work on the day we had to get him. So I went alone. The cat hid for a week, but eventually he hopped up on the couch and stayed next to me. She was so mad hahaha. He avoided her like the plague. Maybe she was too aggressive in trying to pet and hug the cat and I left him alone, but hey, I don't have a girlfriend anymore, but i do have a cat 🤣🤣
Do you have a beard? I've had cats my whole life but they were always affectionate but they got more so after I grew a beard. It's like they wanted to be in my face all the time all of a sudden. I've found that leaving animals alone and letting them come to you is the way to go. I have and old barn raccoons live in. A few years ago I decided to see how well I could get them used to me. In about a week they were coming up to take food right out of my hands. I'd put food out for them somewhere they could hide a little if they wanted too, but I'd sit 30 feet away not even really looking at them. Eventually a few of them will wonder why this hairless ape is hanging around and become interested. One thing I did learn quickly is that raccoons understand how containers work. Most animals will rip open a big of food to get it. If I left a bag with food in at my feet the raccoon would just grab it and run away.
@@Transformers2Fan1 well, the study was bullshit (debunked by the guy who publushed it), but it was about groups of male wolves in captivity. Normal wolf packs in the wild are mostly just a mated pair with their offspring.
They know he's the one that rescued and gave them their forever home!! So lovely! And how awesome is he to bring her cats, as a dog person. Just awesomeness.
I'm wondering if his body temp is maybe a little higher than hers. Cats love heat. Also, that's a shoulder cat there. Check out "Mr. Pirate" the shoulder cat at "Helpful Vancouver Vet".
Exactly! I came here to say the same thing. He is the one who brought them to their forever home and they know that. Also, kudos for not separating a bonded pair. That would have been heartbreaking for them and too cruel.
No joke. Literally everyone I've ever heard say they "don't like cats", end up liking a cat at some point after owning one themselves. Or after ACTUALLY interacting with a cat normally, and realising they are quirky and cute too.
Yep. I was the same way, only because I was never around any growing up. Just assumed I wouldn't really like them cuz we always had dogs and the cats I interacted with were only for a very short time. Then I lived with a buddy that had one and the little guy grew on me so quick. The personality is really what got me. Dogs are great for the undying affection, but it's so fun to just watch a cat go about its daily life. They're so interesting and funny.
One Korean RUclipsr's dad was terrified of cats but after being around one of her very friendly and chill cats, he went and adopted one of his own and now acts like it's his actual child. It's adorable.
@@ixlnxs totally fine. Just like in people, one can have their preference in pets as well. I've never understood the whole cats vs dogs thing... they are both lovely animals in their own way and each pet is their own persona anyways.
That is so true. I love all animals, but I usually had dogs. However, when I moved into an elderly man’s house to help him manage some health issues, his cat started to bond with me. I was concerned at first because I didn’t want him to feel hurt that his cat was sneaking into my room at night. He was actually okay with it. The gentleman passed away last summer and his family was happy that they didn’t have to worry about what was going to happen to his 18 year old cat...now 19. This cat is the most affectionate cat I’ve ever encountered. He has to always be touching me when we sleep. When it’s cold he snuggles right up near my face and I wake up and he’s got his head on my pillow. If it’s warm, he will put his paw on my arm. It’s been an amazing experience. ❤🐈⬛
I love that he called his partner talked to her about getting the cats, rather than getting them as a surprise. Not all presents have to be a surprise and this is especially the case when it comes to the long-term responsibility of a pet.
I love cats but I am saddened that they have short lives. I wouldn't mind sharing my whole life with one. 6-8 years is not long enough so i give them lots of love, hugs, food and kisses.
@@Kopie0830 Rump steak only. He sat waiting patiently, no matter how long I took. He had gingivitis, so he literally just swallowed the pieces, without chewing.
@@shawnplaysgam3s835 Dogs most definitely do if they are not outside at the time they need to go. Cats and dogs are not different in this, cats just don't get walked by most people. Just do that or settle with a litterbox
I wonder if it’s because he brought them home from the shelter. “Yeah - that’s our savior - he’s the one.” They are precious. You are good folks for rescuing them. 💗🐾🙏🏻🐱🐈🐈⬛
@Klemheist Absolutely none of it is true, not a single bit. It's almost incredible. Alphas don't actually exist, that was a term coined from a disproven study on wolves. It never even meant provider, as everyone in the pack provides equally, it only refered to the leading pair with breeding rights, but again, that doesn't exist the way you think. Wolves and lions are extremely different in their heriarchies and family dynamics so that doesn't apply either, not to mention how humans are so VASTLY different from both it's actually asinine to compare.
@@hotmamma2126 You are wrong on soo many levels.. I will just give you a simple example, when you see a pack of dogs, there is always an alpha, male or female doesn't matter. There is always an ALPHA in the pack. I will tell you something that I personally witnessed. One day I was walking to work, I saw a group of 6 stay dogs laying around. When I get closer to them, 2 of them were growing to me, the one in the far back came close to me and sniffed my hand and I petted it and tail was wagging and do you know what happened next? Every dog in the pack came to greet me and for some pets and the alpha saw something and barked in that direction and all of them ran in that direction. This is one of the countless encounters of the similar behavior with animals that I witnessed. THERE IS ALWAYS A ALPHA. PERIOD.. Humans and animals are not the same. You may think that some animals showing human behavior or or feelings but, they are not. They operate on a whole different level.
@Klemheist?? That was the whole point. I was saying that, there is always an alpha..in this case yes he Is the alpha. Read again what I wrote. Reading and comprehending is a skill that human develop at early stages in their lives, in your case.. I suggest you work on that for a while before you answer to anyone.
@@evil7011 Anecdotes aren't actually evidence, especially given since that interpretation of that situation you said isn't the sign of an alpha rather than common practice "monkey see monkey do". That was a braver, more curious dog who took a risk and was rewarded which others followed because it worked out for the first. That's not an inherent sign of a provider nor do you know what else that dog does for the pack. They very well could be human friendly and dog submissive. You keep mistentrepreting what an alpha is with just "providing" when all animal groups have roles who pull their weight in different aspects. Do you mean hunting because female lions are the hunters and wolves all contribute to the hunt so already that can't work just between them, one of which the term was MADE for. Do you mean breeding because again, that's not necessarily a provider and lionesses all breed with a male who they can exile if they don't believe him capable of doing his job of defending the territory (which lionesses also do, males just focus on it so not an alpha). Humans don't follow alphas, our psychology is too complex and there's multiple factors that play into why someone may follow them, even if typically that includes faith in someone providing something we want but that's not always the case so not viable. Have you ever looked up what an alpha is? Genuinely? It's a disproven study, actually scientifically studied, so I'm not sure where you think you have the qualifications to just say "No, I'm right". It's almost concerning how you can dig your heels into such a weak argument that treats all animal behaviors the same to work which just isn't the case. Cats aren't dogs which aren't humans, that's just not debatable
Something very important to note that they kind of passed over at the beginning: He wanted to surprise his girlfriend with cats for Christmas but still asked her beforehand which is the absolute right way to go about getting pets in a family, so props to these two! So many partners get a pet out of the blue to surprise their SO and it turns out they weren't okay with it or it didn't work out for whatever reason and those animals go to the shelter at best or get abandoned and killed at worst. So, please be mindful, think and talk with everyone in the household before getting a pet for everyone's sake!
Omg this is the same as my husband! He told me that cat’s were “evil” and “women’s pets” and then we found a pregnant stray living behind a Walgreens one night and started feeding her every day on our way to the bus stop and about a week later, we just took her home. We had planned on finding homes for the 5 kittens, but we ended up keeping 3 of them and the momma! Now, my husband is a total cat man! I have to stop him from trying to bring home EVERY stray he finds!
I love the fact that he asked her before actually adopting the cats. Living animals as a surprise gift is not a good idea. So he brought up the topic, they both agreed, and the actual cats still got to be a surprise!
I don't love the fact that 100 different people are making this same comment because they're either too lazy or too arrogant to glance at other comments first.
My husband is from Mexico and never had an indoor pet. Our senior cat rescue has totally trained him now. She just adores him. She taps him for massages. She “ conversates” with him. So sweet.
@YA-qj8fx Fine. Quotes surround proper words/expressions or surround common or recognizable expressions even when not proper words/grammar. Otherwise, significance could be too private to the speaker and unclear, quotes or not. I seem to have not recognized a common expression.
@@sonnysmom6017 She put it in quotes because that's what her husband says. English is not his native language, and she's quoting him. Are you the official RUclips grammar police? You need to get a real life.
@@YA-qj8fx When things are confusing or incomprehensible they should always be sent to you first so that you can translate to your understanding of the meaning and motive behind any use of quotes. I had no idea what the quotes referred to. But I guess there are "wrong mistakes" (and I am sure you realize the significance of that quote too)
I rescued an older cat who is now about 14 years old with absolutely no teeth. His name is”Cat Face”He loves my husband a lot more then me “feel like the third wheel”, so I get what you are filling. 🐾🐾
My boyfriend was the furthest thing from a cat person when we met! He even went as far as to say he wasn't a huge fan of my cat in particular. Six years later, and they are bonded beyond belief. They love cuddling together and I've since started to feel a little betrayed 😂
Its normally the perfume. Cats have very strong sense of smell and really dislike perfumes, most men use very little in the way of sents or deodorants, they also tend to wash their cloths less. Every time you wash you are removing your cats sent and that tells it you dislike it.
@@Duck-3 Just a fact. Its not a good/bad thing that men wash less than women. There are several studies that show its better for your skin, hair and immune system to wash less.
What a sweet pair of cats Frank and Cole are, and they both have such a loving human Mom & Dad .. I love the way they have all bonded to one another, a very happy Family 💞💞💞💞
I never dreamed that I would have such a loving relationship with my cat. He’s my first one. I rescued him from behind a dollar general next to some pallets with ants all over him. I’m so glad I brought him home. Now he’s my best friend. I can’t go to sleep easy if he’s not purring asleep on my chest. He’s so affectionate with me. He loves and plays with my two children but as soon as he sees me he wants me to pick him up. The kids are super jealous lol.
Cats are precious! My beautiful Calico died almost 3 years ago. I miss her and her love so much. I watch these videos and they make me smile remembering her. 😻
I was a groomer, and you can usually tell a rescue animal. They know where they were, they know that their person rescued them. I think part of their preference for your husband is he was the one that took them out of there and they are grateful. When you go get your next two cats or your dog, the wife should go alone, and then she'll have a pet that will be completely loyal to her too.
In this case, it could be, too, that the cats sensed that they didn't have to train the human woman since she was already a cat fan and had mom-type feelings. The human man needed to be broken in and also taught that he didn't have to worry any more about being in charge because Cats are already very good at that.
Noooooope! I had a girlfriend once whom I shared a house with, who called me to tell me she had found the most adorable little rescue while out-of-state, she fell in love, yadda yadda… and wanted to bring him home. The SECOND they walked in the front door, that cat came over to me and was like, “Hi, you’re my new human, pleased to meet ya!” The not-too-far-in-the-future-to-be-EX-girlfriend left “her” cat behind when she moved out.
I'm no groomer but I might have a very efficient method for cats: Offer them your whole face as soon you've adopted them before they decide who's their new chief. Works for me.
@@jeremy49988ohhhh for FlipSake noone said they did!!!! SIDENOTE: Just bc u had someone in your family that was a douche to PEOPLE doesn't mean that they were to animals.. so there u go ..
@@UsernameUnkwn21 You and I realize that but I've known people to rely on their pets reaction to guage character for themselves and it is for their benefit that this needed to be said. It was not intended to offend anyone. Have a great day 😀
Nothing like a bonded pair. I have bonded brothers. They are so enjoyable to watch and cool to see how close they are but still so different personalities. Thanks for sharing this.
I was always a dog person. Now I love having *both.* Together they have a complementary energy that truly complete a home. PS. Our female kitty has made it clear she is my husband's. I am only here bc she lets me.
There's a serious financial responsibility when it comes to adopting a pet. Cats need Vet checks, vaccinations, nail trims, teeth cleaning once every 4-6 years (they have to be put under for that and it costs $$$$). They should have their teeth cleaned regularly at home by the owner each day. As cats age, they develop conditions (just like humans) and may need more frequent or more expensive Vet procedures. Cat food is expensive, too. AND the litter. Like everything else, prices are going up. So, make sure you can afford two cats--or the cats may regret it.
2? When I was growing up we had 13 at one point. We had 4 adult cats and 2 of them were females and had kittens around the same time. The good thing was they used to look after the other one's kittens when the mother went out to toilet or to feed. We gave most of them away to a pet shop but it was pretty hectic for a while.
Bless your hearts. Please remember that when it’s time for them to pass, the tragedy is not that they’ll pass, the tragedy would be if they hadn’t been in your lives. Enjoy every blessed moment you have with them!
This is awfully sweet! Your husband is a keeper, bringing you not one, but TWO cats, and him being a dog person. That's a major sacrifice for a guy. Now look at him! Sucker!!! And you, lady, are an awfully good sport!!!
And an interesting decision of his to get two of them instead of one. Maybe he assumed two cats/dogs can at least keep each other company when the humans are not home.
@@isiriscasiano3719 but I mean, he could've gotten one that wasn't bonded. I imagine there are not a lack of cats or dogs around, especially strays. but very sweet of him to get. a bond pair
@@Saadjijoe Two cats are actually easier to take care of than one. They play with and groom eachother, freeing up a lot of your time. You can also leave two cats alone for a few days for a small trip because they'll keep eachother company
Cole is a mackerel tabby. Their super smart n very sensible. Orange tabbies are such love bugs. Our orange tabby showed our mackerel tabby how to open drawers, cabinets and closet doors. Seems like whoever surrendered these 2 showed them a lot of love and attention. Animals chose us, even if we don’t want to admit it. They’ll sense who the softy is or the human that’s more lenient.
I completely agree with you. The orange cat that stole my heart was named Cheeto. Very protective of all the other cats and their territory. Sweet and loving and loyal to me always. He was a true gentleman. 🥺He is missed.
Men taught me how to be a good cat mom. I never met a bad cat dad, they have an incredible bond that I admired and emulated. I tried to incorporate what I learned from cat dad's into how I raised my first cat. I think it worked, I got an intelligent, intuitive, very friendly, super cuddly, fun, cat that is very closely bonded with me, people are often amazed when they see us together. So there's definitely something more to this phenomenon. It starts when the cats are very young of course, cat dad's can teach us all how to not be afraid to build a closer bond, make time, spend time being interactive, show interest, talk to the kitty, carry them often, hold them, sleep with them, don't let them outside for the first few years or ever, feed them in a timely manner every day, play time is important, be hands on, call them by their names and show enthusiasm for the kitty, and you will get all the love back ten fold for years.
So true! We have a lot of feral cats in my neighborhood. Two other ladies on my street besides me feed these homeless kitties. One cute little calico cat was having a litter every year and I gave her extra food during her pregnancy. She would wait across the street and if I greeted her with enthusiasm she came running. Long story short, I fostered her last 2 litters, kept 4, found homes for the rest, had her fixed and now I am her human. She's always glad to see me and now lives in my yard, happy and healthy, extremely loving. But she doesn't want to be an indoor cat, even in the winter cold. I love hearing cat stories, don't you?
I totally agree with this. I believe the only reason some cats aren't as friendly is because they weren't properly socialized from and early age. I think because as a child my mother was affectionate with us, and I had cats as well, later when I had cats I was affectionate with them and held them as soon as it was safe to do so. I think that's why my cats were all so affectionate. I have seen some cats go from somewhat feral to surprisingly friendly, as well.
It reminds me my own cat. We were together for 19 years, he acted almost like a dog, followed me everywhere. When I came home from work he always welcomed me with a lot of miauwing. Unfortunately he passed away a while ago and I still miss him very much. Enjoy the love of your cats.
It's a hard loss!! By now i assume you've moved on. Did you get another cat? I sort of hope so....your late cat had invested 19 years in your training and development as a cat person! Merry Christmas.
My dog safed my life when i was a Baby my mother wants to go over the street when the traffic light was red and my dog stopped the Baby carriage but when he reach the age of 12 he dies because he got Cancer :( Still Animals can simply become real family members and I miss him a lot ! I wish that your cat rests in peace and hope that she is now in a better place where there are a lot of Mouse :3
Oh my goodness these darling babies are just the most precious loving gentle little lovebugs!! 😭😭😭😍😍😍💕💕💕 They are both such daddy's boys it's beyond adorable!😌 the way they cuddle up to him and the way the sweet orange kitty lifted his arms up to be picked up by his dad melted my heart 😌❤️
I like that they got a bonded pair and seem to have visited them more than one time. Putting thought into a pet adoption helps bring the best 'match' for all which seems to be the case here. So glad they are all happy together, and the 'fur babies' really seem to luv their people. So cute.
My hubby went and retrieved my cat, Angus, from my daughter who was going to foster him due to our moving. Hubby also a dog guy and felt bad about me being depressed so called and talked landlord into letting me keep him. He did this unbeknownst to me and didn't know my poor boy does not travel well. At 75 mph down I-75 in a DISH van and my poor boy is sliding across dashboard, crawling - hooking into - all over my hubby who can't exit for 12 miles. Hubby said my poor boy yowling and panting but he was determined. Needless to say many bottles of peroxide, lots of kisses n love - for Angus, and a woman who KNEW WITHOUT A DOUBT my hubby loves me.
Man always had dogs, doesn't like cats. Wife always had cats, never had dogs. Man gets 2 cats for his wife, putting her preference first instead of himself. Can tell this is a good guy. 😻👍
Frank and Cole are Beautiful. And they look Happy and Comfortable being together. Thank you Guys for Adopting these Bonded Cats. It is a Beautiful thing. They Know they are Loved Amen. 🖤💚🐈
Great to see this. I was a "dogs only" person & am grateful that I discovered cats @ 24 years ago. They really aren't just pets, but like dogs,, cats do become part of your family. ADOPT FROM A SHELTER & SAVE A LIFE TODAY. YOU WILL BE HAPPY THAT YOU DID.
Reminds me of when I begged my dad to let me have a guinea pig. He was super against it, because he thought they were gross (he has this sort of fear of rodent like creatures lol). Well, he ended up loving Gus-Gus (I named him after the mouse in Cinderella lol) and they were best friends. He would buy special fruits and veggies just for him. It was very sweet.
It's is truly a remarkable phenomenon how a cat can show all members of a household that he loves and appreciates them, but often chooses one as his/her "special someone"!
Get both! There is nothing sweeter and cuter than a cat who loves her/his dog. And, once the dog knows that it's his job to protect his kitty, it's on!. It's so sweet and fun to watch.
This reminds me of my dad. Whenever we had cats growing up they would always want my dad’s attention and he didn’t really care for them that much. I mean he was good with them but if it was up to him we wouldn’t have had cats in the first place. ❤️🐱
My father admitted to me a short time before he died that he was afraid to admit how much he cared for the cats because every time he had we lost the cat. He'd become kind of superstitious about it.
I love stories when dog people discover the love of cats! Kitties are just as hilarious and love their humans just like dogs. And easier to keep the bed clean!
"Third wheel" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I know that feeling. My husband decided we'd get a cat instead of a dog, because it would be easier than taking a dog outside to go potty. She took to him and I'm the clean up staff, she is suppose to be my cat. When she gets in trouble then according to him she is definitely my cat, otherwise she's Daddy's girl.
I know exactly how the wife feels. after our other rescue cats died of old age the previous year I had been looking for another cat. I found one the wife was ready to adopt. we drove 2 hours to pick her up and a year later, as far as the cat is concerned, I am "that annoying guy who tries to pet me". cat loves my wife and tolerates me. I think we'll need to get another one so I have something to snuggle too.
That is the cutest thing I have ever seen what babies they are so precious animals are the most precious things in this world whether it's a cat or a dog actually. Always enjoy your animals because they're very very dear to your heart and it's so cute to see those to cuddle up with you guys especially your your husband it's adorable enjoy your cats
You can tell how good of a person he is by how affectionate the cat behaves towards him. As a lad myself, he is an inspiration. Edit: C'mon.... this was supposed to be a wholesome and appreciative comment, why dictator got tangled into this?
Thank you for keeping those 2 cats together because when they're bonded I just can't stand it when people separate them. Also who wants to be the only one so it's always good to have at least 2
these cats truly love their home, and their parents. they shower them every day with affection, so they never go back where they came from. I think they have won the hearts of everyone, including the viewers.
I've worked in the vet industry for 15 years and I can confirm - Dogs and cats both love nuzzling against a good stubbly beard. It's like a heated wire brush for them! 😁
Haha I could honestly say the same has happened in my home. I was the one who grew up with cats and my husband grew up with dogs. The cat we have is all about her daddy, never mind mommy. And I'm the one that cleans the cat litter and feeds her. LOL what can I say I love the cat!
This is so cute my husband husband detested cats he had a bad incident with one when we got married and moved into our house there were a colony of stray cats cats I started feeding them when I started getting them trapped spade noodled and returned well I had a stroke a couple of years ago guess who still feeds the cats twice A-day every day And gives them fresh water my husband it is hilarious to see we have named them he remembers each of their names talks to these cats every day Won't God do it animals are amazing everyone stay safe and have a wonderful day♥️😊🤣🐈🐈🐈⬛🐈⬛👋🏻💛
@@Giselbartecek That's an ignorant comment, you have no idea it may very well be difficult for her to type after her stroke, even if that's not the case, a very insensitive remark to someone dealing with difficulty.
They act like my 2 brothers 🐈, I found mine at petsmart one day, wasn't really looking but when I saw them cuddled up and in a display case I wanted to give them a 4ever home. Thank you for sharing your story you guys
I had a cuddler cat who was just like Cole. She was a stray black kitty who adopted me. Her name was Mouse. She loved being carried around with her paws draped over my shoulder and would purr so loud you could hear her from across the room. She would knead while she purred and I almost always had tiny holes in the fabric on the back shoulder of my t-shirts where she'd been cuddling. It's been twenty years since she's been gone and I still miss her.🐾💔
That's terrific! Our cat, Melina, does something similar. She often sleeps with me at night and in the morning, when I start to rouse up, she'll walk up my chest and start head-butting me in the face at which point I start petting her and she'll lie down and purr.
Our cat used to get on top of the door, so we put small (2’ long) shelves on the walls, at different heights, so he could walk along them. He really likes them too.
I've decided that whether people have had cats or not that some people have an energy that cats love. Those people can say they are not cat people but their energy says something entirely different. Case in point: my 87 year old father that now snuggles with his cat every night.😻
Agreed! It really is about your energy! My younger brother somehow attracts small cats and dogs naturally. Even my cat that has a special bond with me, will get so happy and rush over to see him when he comes visit. She hates all men besides him. 😅 I am pretty sure it’s cuz of my brother’s gentle energy.

I love that he wanted to get her them for Christmas and called her first to ask her. Not worth a surprise if it turns out the person doesnt want them or cant take care of them. Love seeing someone finally ask first before gifting.
I came here to find this comment, I fully agree with you! A beautiful family all round
Agree with this comment so much… my “friend” tried to surprise me with a three month old kitten last year, knowing that I really love cats,. But as sweet as he was I told her I couldn’t accept him bc I have a Jack Russell terrier who likes to hunt small animals and hates cats especially, and I work all day, I will never be home enough for a kitten, I already have trouble trying to find time to walk my dog everyday. She got mad at me and called me selfish bc I didn’t accept the cat, and accused me of not caring if he was alive or not. She doesn’t understand that my very hyper dog would try to kill it everyday until the job was done. If it wasn’t for my dog, I would’ve e gotten a cat already myself. Finding a cat was never the issue. I know better then to bring one into my home at this time. Having a pet is a lifetime commitment. It’s not like she was gifting me a shirt that I turned down. You can’t just surprise someone like that, especially if you don’t live with them or really understand their living situation. The thought is nice but always ASK FIRST!
@@missvness730 That’s super toxic of your friend
@@missvness730 I’ve seen a few really sweet videos of ppl getting surprised with pets, but yeah I agree. Always ask first. I would love a kitten but nervous about how my cat would react. That boy is NOT a cat person lol. Last time he lived with other cats (I was staying with a relative temporarily) he was peeing in my damn bed to mark his territory! So yeah I’m not willing to chance it lol
@@sciencestuffs8978 she really was. I kept giving her chances and strikes after she would do something and end up forgiving her, but I finally woke up and realized how toxic and selfish she really was. I was holding on too long bc I was desperate for some friendship, but I rather be alone than be friends with someone is constantly inconsiderate of my feelings and situation. It was exhausting! But hey I have my RUclips cat videos to keep me occupied lol
I adopted a male kitten and he became so loving toward my sick mother. He made her last few years so happy! Cats rock!
My female black cat was the same with my dad. When he was feeling weak or bedridden in bed or the recliner, she'd sleep next to him or on him... And he hated cats for years until her haha.
@@LegaltTO My grandfather hated cats until I lived with my grandparents with mine. He fell in love with them, especially one in particular. All are passed now but it’s a good memory. ☺️
Yes they do. They are amazing beings!
Aw praise God!!!!
that's adorable! and I'm sorry for your loss
These cats know that this dad is a keeper.
On a more serious note, the cats probably imprinted on the dad because he rescued them. I rescued an old cat (13 yrs ) from an adoption shelter that was not coping too well and she never left my side. We live in the country and I could walk her around our property off lead and she would go out and come in with me, like a shadow. Cats pick their humans
Yes I wondered that, about the cats imprinting on the husband as he's the one who went to get them... So a lesson for people wanting to give surprises, apart from the number saying how good he asked his wife first, absolutely, living beings as surprise gift is pretty crazy really, such a commitment.. but also best to take the recipient to the initial meeting too, so there is equal imprinting, or at least an equal chance. Bless them all, obviously all loving, but would be nice for the wife if the cats shared their attention more evenly .. esp as it sounds like she does most of the cat-related chores!
Is not always that reason, my girl and I got a bunch of cats and they have been always specially fond of me. Even with my girl being the one who feed them, clean their box, etc. You know why? Because I'm the one who most plays with them, for animals play time is a super serious and important thing, and believe It or not, is what they give more importance of all.
Guys. Cats go for the human that let's them have their control. In other words, the one that leaves them alone.
This video format of "He's not the one that wanted the cats, now look at him" has become a trope for that reason.
Cats like to control their interactions.
My cat is the same! He was a very shy scared cat, but he always stuck around me, 2 years later he is more confident now and waits for me to come home from school
Sorry, but neither this man nor you "rescued" those cats or your girl cat. You adopted them from a rescue/shelter who were the ones involved in rescuing them from the situation they were in. You gave her a home and love and not to be in stress at the rescue anymore which is harder on senior kitties. Rescuing them means to actually be the one to either take them off the street as a stray or from a neglectful situation.
I love at the very end, the cat's ear flips inside out while snuggling his dad, so his dad does the dad-job of fixing the cats ear. What a good dad!

UPDATE: I found two kittens in a drainage ditch where I live.
On and off I have been seeing a man who lives across from me. I brought the kittens to him, 8 months previous he adopted two. He relocated he is an RN and is renting a tiny house cabin and as am I, of course he couldn't keep he melted my heart when he couldn't go to sleep without naming them, we went camping last weekend on the way there he was talking about how much he'd miss them. :-)You know a man loves you when he's a dog person and he wants to give you two cats ❤️

You can prefer dogs but still like cats though. The only good reasons to dislike cats imo is severe allergy or childhood trauma(it's of course completely fine to just not want to have a cat though, not everyone has the space, time and money). People that dislike cats for any other reason are a red flag. Best case scenario they completely lack a sense of humor.
Same here. My girlfriend wanted a cat, so we went to the rescue to check them out. She picked the one, but had to work on the day we had to get him. So I went alone. The cat hid for a week, but eventually he hopped up on the couch and stayed next to me. She was so mad hahaha. He avoided her like the plague. Maybe she was too aggressive in trying to pet and hug the cat and I left him alone, but hey, I don't have a girlfriend anymore, but i do have a cat 🤣🤣
The cat knew you were the real keeper, mate 😂
Cats prefer those who has less scent and most women wears to much perfume or scented lotion. Cats sense of smell is 14x than of human.

My wife wanted a dog. We found a corgi x at the pound and bought it home. The dog bonded with me and pretty much ignored my wife. She wasn't happy.
Do you have a beard? I've had cats my whole life but they were always affectionate but they got more so after I grew a beard. It's like they wanted to be in my face all the time all of a sudden.
I've found that leaving animals alone and letting them come to you is the way to go. I have and old barn raccoons live in. A few years ago I decided to see how well I could get them used to me. In about a week they were coming up to take food right out of my hands. I'd put food out for them somewhere they could hide a little if they wanted too, but I'd sit 30 feet away not even really looking at them. Eventually a few of them will wonder why this hairless ape is hanging around and become interested. One thing I did learn quickly is that raccoons understand how containers work. Most animals will rip open a big of food to get it. If I left a bag with food in at my feet the raccoon would just grab it and run away.

Also, that's a shoulder cat there. Check out "Mr. Pirate" the shoulder cat at "Helpful Vancouver Vet".
Exactly! I came here to say the same thing. He is the one who brought them to their forever home and they know that. Also, kudos for not separating a bonded pair. That would have been heartbreaking for them and too cruel.
Yeah, "I don't want cats but she wants cats so I'm getting cats for her." We love a wife-guy.
It's actually the beard and buzzcut hair - cats go nuts for them.
So happy to hear they adopted a bonded pair. Thank you for welcoming them into your home and giving them the love and care they deserve and need.
No joke. Literally everyone I've ever heard say they "don't like cats", end up liking a cat at some point after owning one themselves. Or after ACTUALLY interacting with a cat normally, and realising they are quirky and cute too.
Yep. I was the same way, only because I was never around any growing up. Just assumed I wouldn't really like them cuz we always had dogs and the cats I interacted with were only for a very short time. Then I lived with a buddy that had one and the little guy grew on me so quick. The personality is really what got me. Dogs are great for the undying affection, but it's so fun to just watch a cat go about its daily life. They're so interesting and funny.
One Korean RUclipsr's dad was terrified of cats but after being around one of her very friendly and chill cats, he went and adopted one of his own and now acts like it's his actual child. It's adorable.
I grew up with cats and knew I was a dog person as soon as we adopted one from an asylum when I was 13. Never want another cat, sorry.
@@ixlnxs totally fine. Just like in people, one can have their preference in pets as well. I've never understood the whole cats vs dogs thing... they are both lovely animals in their own way and each pet is their own persona anyways.

That is so true. I love all animals, but I usually had dogs. However, when I moved into an elderly man’s house to help him manage some health issues, his cat started to bond with me. I was concerned at first because I didn’t want him to feel hurt that his cat was sneaking into my room at night. He was actually okay with it. The gentleman passed away last summer and his family was happy that they didn’t have to worry about what was going to happen to his 18 year old cat...now 19.
This cat is the most affectionate cat I’ve ever encountered. He has to always be touching me when we sleep. When it’s cold he snuggles right up near my face and I wake up and he’s got his head on my pillow. If it’s warm, he will put his paw on my arm. It’s been an amazing experience. ❤🐈⬛

@Klemheist they aren't lions and that's not how they work. Wolves don't even work like that 😭
@Klemheist Absolutely none of it is true, not a single bit. It's almost incredible.
Alphas don't actually exist, that was a term coined from a disproven study on wolves. It never even meant provider, as everyone in the pack provides equally, it only refered to the leading pair with breeding rights, but again, that doesn't exist the way you think. Wolves and lions are extremely different in their heriarchies and family dynamics so that doesn't apply either, not to mention how humans are so VASTLY different from both it's actually asinine to compare.
@@hotmamma2126 You are wrong on soo many levels.. I will just give you a simple example, when you see a pack of dogs, there is always an alpha, male or female doesn't matter. There is always an ALPHA in the pack. I will tell you something that I personally witnessed. One day I was walking to work, I saw a group of 6 stay dogs laying around. When I get closer to them, 2 of them were growing to me, the one in the far back came close to me and sniffed my hand and I petted it and tail was wagging and do you know what happened next? Every dog in the pack came to greet me and for some pets and the alpha saw something and barked in that direction and all of them ran in that direction.
This is one of the countless encounters of the similar behavior with animals that I witnessed.
THERE IS ALWAYS A ALPHA. PERIOD..
Humans and animals are not the same. You may think that some animals showing human behavior or or feelings but, they are not. They operate on a whole different level.
@Klemheist?? That was the whole point. I was saying that, there is always an alpha..in this case yes he Is the alpha. Read again what I wrote. Reading and comprehending is a skill that human develop at early stages in their lives, in your case.. I suggest you work on that for a while before you answer to anyone.
@@evil7011 Anecdotes aren't actually evidence, especially given since that interpretation of that situation you said isn't the sign of an alpha rather than common practice "monkey see monkey do". That was a braver, more curious dog who took a risk and was rewarded which others followed because it worked out for the first. That's not an inherent sign of a provider nor do you know what else that dog does for the pack. They very well could be human friendly and dog submissive.
You keep mistentrepreting what an alpha is with just "providing" when all animal groups have roles who pull their weight in different aspects. Do you mean hunting because female lions are the hunters and wolves all contribute to the hunt so already that can't work just between them, one of which the term was MADE for. Do you mean breeding because again, that's not necessarily a provider and lionesses all breed with a male who they can exile if they don't believe him capable of doing his job of defending the territory (which lionesses also do, males just focus on it so not an alpha). Humans don't follow alphas, our psychology is too complex and there's multiple factors that play into why someone may follow them, even if typically that includes faith in someone providing something we want but that's not always the case so not viable.
Have you ever looked up what an alpha is? Genuinely? It's a disproven study, actually scientifically studied, so I'm not sure where you think you have the qualifications to just say "No, I'm right". It's almost concerning how you can dig your heels into such a weak argument that treats all animal behaviors the same to work which just isn't the case. Cats aren't dogs which aren't humans, that's just not debatable
Something very important to note that they kind of passed over at the beginning: He wanted to surprise his girlfriend with cats for Christmas but still asked her beforehand which is the absolute right way to go about getting pets in a family, so props to these two!
So many partners get a pet out of the blue to surprise their SO and it turns out they weren't okay with it or it didn't work out for whatever reason and those animals go to the shelter at best or get abandoned and killed at worst. So, please be mindful, think and talk with everyone in the household before getting a pet for everyone's sake!
Yes! I got nervous too with the "went alone as a surprise" and was very reliefed by the question right after
Omg this is the same as my husband! He told me that cat’s were “evil” and “women’s pets” and then we found a pregnant stray living behind a Walgreens one night and started feeding her every day on our way to the bus stop and about a week later, we just took her home. We had planned on finding homes for the 5 kittens, but we ended up keeping 3 of them and the momma! Now, my husband is a total cat man! I have to stop him from trying to bring home EVERY stray he finds!

I was a groomer, and you can usually tell a rescue animal. They know where they were, they know that their person rescued them. I think part of their preference for your husband is he was the one that took them out of there and they are grateful. When you go get your next two cats or your dog, the wife should go alone, and then she'll have a pet that will be completely loyal to her too.
In this case, it could be, too, that the cats sensed that they didn't have to train the human woman since she was already a cat fan and had mom-type feelings. The human man needed to be broken in and also taught that he didn't have to worry any more about being in charge because Cats are already very good at that.
Noooooope! I had a girlfriend once whom I shared a house with, who called me to tell me she had found the most adorable little rescue while out-of-state, she fell in love, yadda yadda… and wanted to bring him home. The SECOND they walked in the front door, that cat came over to me and was like, “Hi, you’re my new human, pleased to meet ya!”
The not-too-far-in-the-future-to-be-EX-girlfriend left “her” cat behind when she moved out.

I waited too long. My cat is older now and it's a lot easier when they are young
There's a serious financial responsibility when it comes to adopting a pet. Cats need Vet checks, vaccinations, nail trims, teeth cleaning once every 4-6 years (they have to be put under for that and it costs $$$$). They should have their teeth cleaned regularly at home by the owner each day. As cats age, they develop conditions (just like humans) and may need more frequent or more expensive Vet procedures. Cat food is expensive, too. AND the litter. Like everything else, prices are going up. So, make sure you can afford two cats--or the cats may regret it.
2? When I was growing up we had 13 at one point. We had 4 adult cats and 2 of them were females and had kittens around the same time. The good thing was they used to look after the other one's kittens when the mother went out to toilet or to feed. We gave most of them away to a pet shop but it was pretty hectic for a while.
Bless your hearts. Please remember that when it’s time for them to pass, the tragedy is not that they’ll pass, the tragedy would be if they hadn’t been in your lives. Enjoy every blessed moment you have with them!

@@gaylapawloski8710 Thank you! So tired of reading stupid comments about 'cats personalities because of fur color.'
I completely agree with you. The orange cat that stole my heart was named Cheeto. Very protective of all the other cats and their territory. Sweet and loving and loyal to me always. He was a true gentleman. 🥺He is missed.
I heard somewhere that orange males are super affectionate, more so than orange females.
@@gaylapawloski8710 But each breed has particular colors!
Men taught me how to be a good cat mom. I never met a bad cat dad, they have an incredible bond that I admired and emulated. I tried to incorporate what I learned from cat dad's into how I raised my first cat. I think it worked, I got an intelligent, intuitive, very friendly, super cuddly, fun, cat that is very closely bonded with me, people are often amazed when they see us together. So there's definitely something more to this phenomenon. It starts when the cats are very young of course, cat dad's can teach us all how to not be afraid to build a closer bond, make time, spend time being interactive, show interest, talk to the kitty, carry them often, hold them, sleep with them, don't let them outside for the first few years or ever, feed them in a timely manner every day, play time is important, be hands on, call them by their names and show enthusiasm for the kitty, and you will get all the love back ten fold for years.
So true! We have a lot of feral cats in my neighborhood. Two other ladies on my street besides me feed these homeless kitties. One cute little calico cat was having a litter every year and I gave her extra food during her pregnancy. She would wait across the street and if I greeted her with enthusiasm she came running. Long story short, I fostered her last 2 litters, kept 4, found homes for the rest, had her fixed and now I am her human. She's always glad to see me and now lives in my yard, happy and healthy, extremely loving. But she doesn't want to be an indoor cat, even in the winter cold. I love hearing cat stories, don't you?
@@deborahszafraniec4829 What a sweet neat story - so happy it turned out the way it did for you, and those blessed momma and baby kitties!
I totally agree with this. I believe the only reason some cats aren't as friendly is because they weren't properly socialized from and early age. I think because as a child my mother was affectionate with us, and I had cats as well, later when I had cats I was affectionate with them and held them as soon as it was safe to do so. I think that's why my cats were all so affectionate. I have seen some cats go from somewhat feral to surprisingly friendly, as well.
What an affectionate pair of kitties. You can see the love!😁😼😸
It reminds me my own cat. We were together for 19 years, he acted almost like a dog, followed me everywhere. When I came home from work he always welcomed me with a lot of miauwing. Unfortunately he passed away a while ago and I still miss him very much. Enjoy the love of your cats.
you should be very proud of yourself. 19 years is a long time, very long time, for a cat to live and it is no doubt down to your excellent care.
It's a hard loss!! By now i assume you've moved on. Did you get another cat? I sort of hope so....your late cat had invested 19 years in your training and development as a cat person! Merry Christmas.
Patrick Korving Sounds like you had my 17- year-old "dog" cat. It's what I got for naming him Spike.
❤️
My dog safed my life when i was a Baby my mother wants to go over the street when the traffic light was red and my dog stopped the Baby carriage but when he reach the age of 12 he dies because he got Cancer :( Still Animals can simply become real family members and I miss him a lot ! I wish that your cat rests in peace and hope that she is now in a better place where there are a lot of Mouse :3
Oh my goodness these darling babies are just the most precious loving gentle little lovebugs!! 😭😭😭😍😍😍💕💕💕 They are both such daddy's boys it's beyond adorable!😌 the way they cuddle up to him and the way the sweet orange kitty lifted his arms up to be picked up by his dad melted my heart 😌❤️
Its nice that they Like him so much, and she should be happy as it shows he is a kind person that animals Love
This is such a heartwarming story. So happy Frank and Cole were able to stay together and that they have a wonderful home and a loving mom and dad😻
amazing! Those cats seem so happy!
"The cat's name was Frank." -- C. W. Mc Call (to paraphrase)
So much love. I'm happy he kept them together and found the joy of cat ownership/servitude lol
I like that they got a bonded pair and seem to have visited them more than one time. Putting thought into a pet adoption helps bring the best 'match' for all which seems to be the case here. So glad they are all happy together, and the 'fur babies' really seem to luv their people. So cute.
@gingermaynor495
I thought of the late Cole immediately. That was so sad.
Cats really are fantastic companions, just as good as dogs! Their quirkiness and humor is never ending ❤😻
My hubby went and retrieved my cat, Angus, from my daughter who was going to foster him due to our moving. Hubby also a dog guy and felt bad about me being depressed so called and talked landlord into letting me keep him. He did this unbeknownst to me and didn't know my poor boy does not travel well. At 75 mph down I-75 in a DISH van and my poor boy is sliding across dashboard, crawling - hooking into - all over my hubby who can't exit for 12 miles. Hubby said my poor boy yowling and panting but he was determined. Needless to say many bottles of peroxide, lots of kisses n love - for Angus, and a woman who KNEW WITHOUT A DOUBT my hubby loves me.
so sweet, they are both keepers! :)
Such a loving family. This put a big smile on my face and a tear in my eye.
The entire family is so precious 💖
Man always had dogs, doesn't like cats.
Wife always had cats, never had dogs.
Man gets 2 cats for his wife, putting her preference first instead of himself.
Can tell this is a good guy. 😻👍
So a man is "good" when he prioritises women over himself? Quite telling
Kind of a simp tbh
Great personality 👍 each of them and such 💓 parents.lucky fur babies.
Frank and Cole are Beautiful. And they look Happy and Comfortable being together. Thank you Guys for Adopting these Bonded Cats.
It is a Beautiful thing. They Know they are Loved Amen. 🖤💚🐈
Thanks for adopting rescue animals. THANKS!
Great to see this. I was a "dogs only" person & am grateful that I discovered cats @ 24 years ago. They really aren't just pets, but like dogs,, cats do become part of your family.
ADOPT FROM A SHELTER & SAVE A LIFE TODAY. YOU WILL BE HAPPY THAT YOU DID.
Reminds me of when I begged my dad to let me have a guinea pig. He was super against it, because he thought they were gross (he has this sort of fear of rodent like creatures lol).
Well, he ended up loving Gus-Gus (I named him after the mouse in Cinderella lol) and they were best friends. He would buy special fruits and veggies just for him. It was very sweet.
It's is truly a remarkable phenomenon how a cat can show all members of a household that he loves and appreciates them, but often chooses one as his/her "special someone"!
Get both! There is nothing sweeter and cuter than a cat who loves her/his dog. And, once the dog knows that it's his job to protect his kitty, it's on!. It's so sweet and fun to watch.
Heartwarming story, cute cats and nice couple
This reminds me of my dad. Whenever we had cats growing up they would always want my dad’s attention and he didn’t really care for them that much. I mean he was good with them but if it was up to him we wouldn’t have had cats in the first place. ❤️🐱
Wait till he gets older.. that was my dad too. I've only seen him cry three times, when his mom passed his brother and his fat cat sara Lee🥺
My father admitted to me a short time before he died that he was afraid to admit how much he cared for the cats because every time he had we lost the cat. He'd become kind of superstitious about it.
What great companions. I'm glad they have loving parents.
I love stories when dog people discover the love of cats! Kitties are just as hilarious and love their humans just like dogs. And easier to keep the bed clean!
"Third wheel" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I know that feeling. My husband decided we'd get a cat instead of a dog, because it would be easier than taking a dog outside to go potty. She took to him and I'm the clean up staff, she is suppose to be my cat. When she gets in trouble then according to him she is definitely my cat, otherwise she's Daddy's girl.
That applies for kids too. I saw my parents do that when we were younger. XD
Those cats are beautifully gentle and so are their owners ❤
I know exactly how the wife feels. after our other rescue cats died of old age the previous year I had been looking for another cat. I found one the wife was ready to adopt. we drove 2 hours to pick her up and a year later, as far as the cat is concerned, I am "that annoying guy who tries to pet me". cat loves my wife and tolerates me. I think we'll need to get another one so I have something to snuggle too.
Awwww yeah cats choose their pets.
So precious. Thank you for rescueing them 💖
That is the cutest thing I have ever seen what babies they are so precious animals are the most precious things in this world whether it's a cat or a dog actually. Always enjoy your animals because they're very very dear to your heart and it's so cute to see those to cuddle up with you guys especially your your husband it's adorable enjoy your cats
I’m a bit envious as well of all that cat attention! Lucky guy! ❤️
thank you for giving them a good home
You can tell how good of a person he is by how affectionate the cat behaves towards him.
As a lad myself, he is an inspiration.
Edit:
C'mon.... this was supposed to be a wholesome and appreciative comment, why dictator got tangled into this?
Hitler loved and was loved by animals...
@@ishish8816 Some ppl overdo it with humanizing their animals way too much.
@@ishish8816 Source?
@@Ebani It's true. He was known for that and we even learn this fact in history lesson (i m from Germany
@@ishish8816 guess the explanation is that america fought the wrong guys?
Thank you for keeping those 2 cats together because when they're bonded I just can't stand it when people separate them. Also who wants to be the only one so it's always good to have at least 2
Love it,they give real love...I also have 2 cats that I rescued from the street and the love I get from them is unconditional.❤🐅
Wonderful to see these brother cats being so wanted by their adoptive couple!
This is so adorable....they really really love Bill...its beautiful ❤
these cats truly love their home, and their parents. they shower them every day with affection, so they never go back where they came from.
I think they have won the hearts of everyone, including the viewers.
Bill and Brittany, since they’re a couple of purr machines, they feel comfortable and safe with you.
I've worked in the vet industry for 15 years and I can confirm - Dogs and cats both love nuzzling against a good stubbly beard. It's like a heated wire brush for them! 😁
Haha I could honestly say the same has happened in my home. I was the one who grew up with cats and my husband grew up with dogs. The cat we have is all about her daddy, never mind mommy. And I'm the one that cleans the cat litter and feeds her. LOL what can I say I love the cat!
I have a wonderful adopted cat. She talks to me and loves being brushed. She has never scratched or bitten me.
You're blessed when cats loved you.
This is so cute my husband husband detested cats he had a bad incident with one when we got married and moved into our house there were a colony of stray cats cats I started feeding them when I started getting them trapped spade noodled and returned well I had a stroke a couple of years ago guess who still feeds the cats twice A-day every day And gives them fresh water my husband it is hilarious to see we have named them he remembers each of their names talks to these cats every day Won't God do it animals are amazing everyone stay safe and have a wonderful day♥️😊🤣🐈🐈🐈⬛🐈⬛👋🏻💛
That's an awesome story. Sounds like you both have such tender ❤️❤️
So sweet to read 😊🤗🥰.
But I couldn't help giggle at spade and noodled 😅 (spay and neuter).
COMMAS AND DOTS! Had a stroke reading this.
"spade noodled" 😂
@@Giselbartecek That's an ignorant comment, you have no idea it may very well be difficult for her to type after her stroke, even if that's not the case, a very insensitive remark to someone dealing with difficulty.
Bill and Britttany, Frank and Cole are a couple of sweet and cute fur baby boys.
They're both beautiful. It's wonderful that they are so affectionate!
Watching them climb and cuddle Bill is so adorable, my heart is melting 💚 They seem like such sweet cats
I can watch this video over and over. So sweet 😊
This was laugh out loud funny. And soooo sweet.
Beautiful 😍❤️! Beautiful family!. Many blessings to you, all;.
They act like my 2 brothers 🐈, I found mine at petsmart one day, wasn't really looking but when I saw them cuddled up and in a display case I wanted to give them a 4ever home. Thank you for sharing your story you guys
I had a cuddler cat who was just like Cole. She was a stray black kitty who adopted me. Her name was Mouse. She loved being carried around with her paws draped over my shoulder and would purr so loud you could hear her from across the room. She would knead while she purred and I almost always had tiny holes in the fabric on the back shoulder of my t-shirts where she'd been cuddling. It's been twenty years since she's been gone and I still miss her.🐾💔
That's terrific! Our cat, Melina, does something similar. She often sleeps with me at night and in the morning, when I start to rouse up, she'll walk up my chest and start head-butting me in the face at which point I start petting her and she'll lie down and purr.
Thanks to have gave me a smile in my face
This made me smile. So good to see men who aren't afraid to love cats!
Sweet, precious kitties❤️🐈 True love.
Our cat used to get on top of the door, so we put small (2’ long) shelves on the walls, at different heights, so he could walk along them. He really likes them too.
This was just so freaking cute to see...Def cats love their catdad....🥰🥰🥰✌
Looks like Frank& Cole have it "made in the shade" & are having it their way. Super cute guys. Glad they have such a loving home.
I've decided that whether people have had cats or not that some people have an energy that cats love. Those people can say they are not cat people but their energy says something entirely different. Case in point: my 87 year old father that now snuggles with his cat every night.😻
Agreed! It really is about your energy! My younger brother somehow attracts small cats and dogs naturally. Even my cat that has a special bond with me, will get so happy and rush over to see him when he comes visit. She hates all men besides him. 😅 I am pretty sure it’s cuz of my brother’s gentle energy.
Awwww bless your fathers heart! That is sooo cute 🥺 he snuggles with his little baby every night.! Cats are known to keep blood pressure down as well.
Adorable. Thanks for posting.
