my cat is 8 and we got her abt 3 months ago. she is a total love bug, she loves climbing on peoples laps, laying on your chest, her favorite part of the day is bud duh buh bummmmm FOOD! She is so soft and very sweet. she gives you little gestures if she just wants some love or affection.
@@Hangtw looks to me more like the cat adopted you... that's how it tends to be with cats! 🤔 - Awesome stuff, Bepo and you make a purr-fect match fur sure! 😁
I've loved and owned cats most of my 85 years. This is the best 'adopt a cat' video I've seen. Actually one of the best CAT VIDEOS on the web. Love you for your quick understanding of your Beppo's needs and likes. You are an excellent cat mom!
@@Crazyman6776 Actually a lot of older people like watching youtube. It's never a joke to love someones video and talking about it. Better to be 85 and enjoying life than young and spreading negativity. Grow up.
My heart just melts when I see things like this. I adopted a cat from a shelter in similar circumstances. She came from a hoarder house and is blind in one eye. I fell so in love with her that I just couldn't even fathom leaving without her.
when bepo "massages" you i've been told that it means he thinks of you as like a mother figure because thats what kittens do to get milk from their mom...its really adorable
Bepo definitely knew she was The One and made sure to get his scent all on her and show her that he will love her unconditionally. Sometimes it isn't that the people didn't pick Bepo but rather he wasn't really all that impressed with them and didn't do the affectionate display like at the beginning of the vid when she met him. I'm so glad Bepo has a loving home to live out his golden years!
I have had much experience with cats. And they do think of you as thier child and them there parent! I have an older cat. And I love her so so much. She is always in my lap or laying next to me or "cleaning" me. She has always been by my side and helped me through tough times. I dred the day of losing my sweet Sofie, but enjoy every minute I have with her. Cats are the best. I like dogs as well I just can't have one here! Thank you for saving Beppo! High regards. Enjoy your life together❤❤
One tip: since Bepo is a semi-long haired cat, you really need to make sure you brush him regularly so he doesn’t get all matted, it also slightly helps the inevitable cat fur all over everything :)
agree! i would even recommend maybe going to a cat groomer every now and then to get his booty hairs shaved. easier to avoid him getting poopy butt if he has shorter hair.
If you buy a baby hair trimmer (they make less noise) it's not too bad shaving back there real quick. I do my longhaired girl every few months with very minimal fuss if I don't take too long. @@peenprincess
Agreed - especially as they get older and groom themselves less! I kept my cat's brush in the bathroom since he always liked hanging out with me in there when I'm on the golden throne. That way I always made time to brush him every day and he stopped getting matts. RIP my long-haired soul kitty.
Part of the charm of cats is that you have to earn their love and trust; they’re not hardwired to please you like dogs are. So every moment they choose to snuggle with you or play with the toy you chose is special. Thanks for making sure Bepo has a loving home!
I'm so glad you gave Bepo a home! Senior cats (especially those with disabilities) usually are in the shelter for a long time, people are always looking for kittens which I can understand but senior cats are so much more chill!! You'll never have to deal with its rebellious teenage phase and just enjoy their chill calmness
Indeed, kittens & their antics are delightfully entertaining, fun, and heartwarming. As I myself age however, I am aware of my own ‘slowing down’ and heightened ‘chill’ desires. It now seems an older kitty and I could do well together……and we can watch videos of crazy kittens :)) This is the first time in 34 years I have not had a pair of kitties ~~ New Year 2024 seems primed for new feline home-buddies 😻
It's the same with dogs. Some people are treating their pets like fast fashion once the pets are old/sick/disabled or the people are too busy for pets. Many pets aren't going to stay cute forever.
You also don’t have to nail everything in the house down or pack up all your good dishes and breakable art, hide your jewelry, remember to not leave knives or anything else he could hurt himself with and, by the way, if you have blinds with hanging chords keep them securely coiled up and out of reach of your cat. They can easily get hung up while jumping down or playing with them, etc. Just happen to a friend. She lost her sweet boi-cat. Anyway, senior cats are GREAT cats to have.
My boyfriend and I were in the same boat as you and Kyle! I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and love them so much, but always had a huge misconception about cats. My boyfriend has always dreamed of a dog, but the rental we moved into, cats were the only pets allowed. We gave the cat shelter a go because we 1. Wanted to give a cat a new lease on life, and 2. Thought maybe it would be easier to start with an adult cat. I thought it would be hard to choose one, but this sweet and affectionate black cat came up to us and we were also told he had trouble being adopted because he was black and 13 years old! :( It’s been 1.5 years now and Lucius is one of the best things that’s happened to us. You’re so right about all the misconceptions - cats are incredibly clean (cleaning themselves, low maintenance), can be so gentle and loving, and an amazing best friend. Ours is also very vocal and likes talking to us. Learning about cats has been such a cool experience and my opinion has forever changed about them! So happy that you guys now know cat love - I’ve heard from so many cat friends that you don’t choose the cat, the cat chooses you ❤
That is so so sweet 🥹 thank you for sharing your story with Lucius and giving him a loving family ❤️ I’m so glad I got to experience this kind of love for cats too!
I can tell you two are amazing pet owners from the fact he was making little biscuits on day 4! That’s a crazy fast time for a cat to warm up to a new home and family. Thank you guys for giving him a home, elderly cats are so often overlooked so it’s a beautiful thing to see one get a family 😸💖
Came across this video randomly and I appreciate that you're advocating for adoption from shelters (not shopping) + giving older cats a chance too! Bepo was a perfect choice for you and it shows! 🐱
I recommend you get him a wider and shallow bowl for him to eat from because of his whiskers (cats prefer to not have their whiskers touching the bowl when eating) So happy you adopted and gave him a home
Bless you for adopting an older cat!! Kittens get all the love and attention, but older cats are honestly the best. So chill and sweet and easy to care for.
My cats actually motivate me to clean way more often than I would normally do because I can tell they hate mess and are uneasy in it. Also, they motivate me to have a regular sleep schedule, which is awesome for my wellbeing and productivity 💯
That's find but a Cats are also a Lot of Work (cleaning litterbox, playing with the cat etc.) and you can motivste yourself to do those Things by simply setting a Timer and making a To-Do list
Bepo is such a gift in your household. So happy for all 3 of you. Our family always have cats - no allergy issues with the young ones - and yes, the older cats are calmer in temperament & a lot more loving especially when they know they are now a part of the family. Always loved cats and will always love them - ALL.
Me and my misses had the same thing happen to us , we saw a couple of posts of a shelter not to far from us here in belgium , there was a younger 2 year old cat that lost an eye , but it was a sweetheart , we couldn't resist our little pirate cat and took him home , they also said that nobody wanted him because of the eye
We adopted an older cat who was VERY friendly in the shelter, but then at home she hid for a while, just like Bepo, but then she came out of her shell. And she was a complete lover eventually. Also, please show Bepo the RUclips channel called Kitten Academy because it is a great show for cats. Chris and Dr. DJ run the academy.
Thank you for showing us what an aged cat's perks are. It is hard for them to get adopted, I hope this video will change people's opinions about adopting senior cats. ❤
Bepo looks awesome and in good health, he will probably around for months and months to come! Big high fiive for putting your heart on the line, thats why many dont adopt elderly cats, they cant handle the heartache.
I wanted an older cat for my little dog but a needy stray kitten found me. All my cats have been adopted strays. She's sweet and beautiful, a ragdoll or at least part. I love her but still would have preferred an older mellow cat, she's cray cray!
Older cats do not have to be litter trained or socialized which are benefits often overlooked. They are also less likely to be mischievous or hyper if you prefer a calm home.
As a fellow new Asian catmom (our 6-year-old tuxedo cat Lily ended up in a shelter twice before we adopted her), I feel you. It's quite the journey! The Litter Robot is really fancy, but it's actually huge and not great for our tiny apartment. Nice touch watching Haikyuu, y'all have great taste! All the same, I wish you, your fiance and Bepo all the best.😻
Thank you for giving Bepo the chance he deserved. I cant tell you how much we all appreciate to see all the comfort and attention you have given him when he needed it the most. You are the best kind of person, Thank you for sharing him with us! As a fellow adult kit rescuer, I cant relate to what you said enough. It is such a rewarding feeling with all the affection and comfort an older cat can provide.
GOD bless you for adopting this precious kitty thankyou we need more people in this world like you .... i have a rescue kitty too was the BEST DECISION EVER ...wish you all the happiness, health and happy memories w you and your new kitty ...🐾❤️🐈⬛🐾✨️🌅🏡
A little tip, don't give them bowls that are too high for their food, a lot of cats don't like that because of their whiskers. And also thank you for giving Bepo a home. ❤
I agree. I feed Furnando out of shallow bowls which are low to the ground and curved not square corners like a box. He does not like trying to lick food out of corners. Filling them more often gives me more control over his appetite and weight. I also add a few tooth cleaning treats to the bottom of every bowl.
Bepo is gorgeous.Having a cat share their home with you is a blessing! Cats are magical creatures. Loved watching him gradually settle and now your home is his home ❤
One of the best things you had that allowed this to happen, was patience. You had the patience to allow Bepo the time he needed to adjust, and the patience to discover and mesh with Bepo's particular personality. Thank you for giving Bepo a home, and to give him all the love he deserves; as well as excepting all his quirks along with the endless love he gives in return.
This is one of the best videos I’ve seen in years! I confess that I laughed at some things that weren’t supposed to be funny but I’m a lifetime cat person so some of your observations were funny. The photography and editing on this video looked professional. Just a marvelous video. Bepo is beautiful!
This is so cute I love Bepo already 😭 It's so nice to see elderly cats being brought home from shelters. But one piece of advice I have is that when playing with the laser toy make sure to give him a treat at the end because I've heard that lasers can be very frustrating for cats since they aren't able to actually 'catch' the red dot. After playing with the laser you should let Bepo "catch" the dot which you have directed to the treat. It gives them a sense of catching pray and makes them less agitated! :)
It's awesome to see how Bepo changed your life and insightful to hear the perspective of somebody who never had a pet and had misconceptions about the experience. I LOVE cats, particularly adult and senior kitties and I thank you for showing the world how great adult/older cats can be. Cats are very special creatures; they can be amazing teachers and companions if we allow it; and they will enhance our lives by their very nature. Thank you for being open to something new and for sharing your story and inspiring others!😺
Just let me start by saying that he is absolutely precious. I have never been a cat person until I got our cat from a shelter if I could adopt a whole bunch, I would I never knew much about cats, but they are very, very smart self-sufficient they really do, adapt to you and want love and they are very good for people with the anxiety. I have always been to person but now I really think that I’m a cat person. I think you’re awesome because you are giving that cat the best years of its life I feel like if people could just give cats a chance
Aww thank you for giving Bepu a family and a home. I'm a rescuer and wish I could save aaalll animals, but sadly, that's impossible. This made me smile the whole time I was watching your video. It's hard enough for strays to get a new home, let alone old and sick furbabies. I'm sure he's grateful to you for choosing him, and even more sure that your lives are much better with Bepu in it.
So sweet! Aren't you glad you were open to having your heart touched by this angel of a fur baby? You really lucked out with Beppo because not all cats are cuddly like he is.
You’re a good cat mama!😻 Bepo is one lucky boy! I’ve had dozens of cats throughout my life. Most have been feral cats that have either been abandoned or born in the wild. All of them have been amazing and have added to the quality of my life. Thank you for choosing a shelter cat who needed a home and especially an older cat that is difficult to rehome. This video and your message about adopting an older cat is so important for people to hear. Bless you both!❤❤❤
I can only congratulate you on being openminded and adoting him with the understanding of cats you had before! Very happy for all of you, especially Bepo! Only one note: id recomend getting a lower bowl for feeding him because a cats whiskers are very sensitive and they usually prefer to eat from a dish without touching it with whiskers :)
I could not decide on what cat to adopt at the shelter for a birthday present for myself. Like others my beloved kitty died years before and I stayed alone. As I was leaving to "sleep" on a decision, a paw came out of the cage and grabbed onto my sweater. Thats it, she picked me. So happy with my new little one, Louie Bell. So spoiled too.
He looks sooo sweet! 😻 Like a mix between a little lion and a big teddy bear! And he's such a kind and friendly soul. Thank you for giving him a home! Great job!
It's always heartwarming to see a cat getting adopted and bonding with it's owners. It always melts my heart and I'm glad you 3 found each other. I've also had multiple cats for roughly 25 or so years. They are great.
Awwww Bepo (and his cloudy eye) totally deserved a loving home. My heart breaks everytime I hear a pet is rejected over these things. You're nice and loving people. Thank you for proving not everything sucks and most people are nice and we can all learn too.
Thank you for adopting this adorable senior cat. The world needs more people like you, to take a chance on a senior cat. They are the most loving of all. My one cat "April" was at a shelter forever, I saw her on the internet. I fell in love because even though she was very rough looking, had lived there for a long time I felt she needed a home for however long she had left. I took her home the next day and gave her love, food and sunshine. She enriched my life for one year before she passed away, but she had the best year of her life.
This is soooo adorable 😭 Thank you for spreading awarenes about how loveable older cats can be too! They need a home just like the younger ones. When I adopted my cats, they were older too, because the younger ones will be adopted no matter what.
Great video. Love that you adopted an adult pet. They are the best. I just adopted the youngest pet I’ve brought home in decades. He almost nine months old. He’s a male cat named Teddy. I adore him.
This video popped up randomly for me and I am so glad I watched it. I am a cat lover and this is a wonderful video promoting cat ownership especially for the older cat. Bepo clearly loves you, thank you for giving him a loving home.
Please give him a wider bowl because he needs to be able to get to the food without squishing his whiskers. They are important to his balance and he needs them. NEVER trim them either. The only other thing is PLEASE keep him indoors ALWAYS. Being older he is more vulnerable to disease and infection and predators.
My oldest cat is 22 and she is the sweetest little thing on this Earth (her name is actually Sweetie), thank you so much for giving this baby a chance!
We have adopted several street cats, which has been a tremendous rewarding experience. So many need a good home, so a big thank you for taking caring for Bepo and providing such a loving and caring home. 🤗
You guys are wonderful pet owners. So nice to see how patient you were the first few days while Bepo got used to his new home. Very heartwarming video!🤗🐈🐱
I recently went through a similar experience of being nervous about pet ownership and then bringing home an affectionate senior cat. They are just so happy to be loved and cared for, I'm so glad Bepo has a safe and warm place to call home 😭
me too i adopted a 2 year old male cat in a shelter, everyone was looking for kittens and i just saw him chillin there and i decided to adopt him. It was one of the best decision of my life!
Older cats and kittens always provided me with emotional and physical therapy. When we pet or stroke a cat, it causes a release of oxytocin in both humans and our animal companions, which can also reduce pain. Thanks for giving him a chance. People don't know what they're missing.
I love this video. I have never before seen this young lady, but I already feel such a fondness for her and her partner! And Bepo! This touches my tender, furbaby-loving heart! 🐾🐾♥️
Who are the blind and uncaring folks who wouldn't want a cat like that? Smh. Every stray deserves a home with folks who will give them the love they deserve. Thank you for opening your home to Bepo! I'm sure he's very loving and grateful for your love
It’s not always that someone is blind and uncaring. Don’t assume bad things about people. A lot of people need a pet that they have a chance of having a longer time with, and even though it’s never guaranteed that they won’t get sick along the way, not everyone can take on the true emotional challenge of adopting elder animals. We should encourage people to adopt whether they want a baby, a teen, an adult, or an elder.
I am so happy for you and this whole thing is rlly close to my meeting with my cat who passed away sadly but i hope you a bepo live longs lives and are by each others side
Giving the older cat a chance truly warms my heart !
🤍🤍
Am a cat expert or whisperer if you will. And I sense the cat hates it there and wants to leave

Are you 85 and your watching youtube what a joke😂😂
@@Crazyman6776 Actually a lot of older people like watching youtube. It's never a joke to love someones video and talking about it. Better to be 85 and enjoying life than young and spreading negativity. Grow up.
It’s no surprise why Bepo chose you, you are a super adorable human that just radiates positive energy!
and so kind, compassionate and caring.
I agree!!!

Awww, that's priceless. 😻💞💕
I just love how us humans melt when we see these cats. So much love. I can't wait to adopt in the future
❤ right move.
Litter robot, nah 2000 dollars,I'll stick to a tray and just clean it out I don't mind I'm not lazy and don't leave his poo to stink the place up
when bepo "massages" you i've been told that it means he thinks of you as like a mother figure because thats what kittens do to get milk from their mom...its really adorable
cats knead when theyre relaxed/happy and to spread their scent since their paw pads have scent glands!
Kneading and the motor going 100mph is normal for a happy feline
Bepo definitely knew she was The One and made sure to get his scent all on her and show her that he will love her unconditionally. Sometimes it isn't that the people didn't pick Bepo but rather he wasn't really all that impressed with them and didn't do the affectionate display like at the beginning of the vid when she met him. I'm so glad Bepo has a loving home to live out his golden years!

Congrats on being a cat mom! 🐱
Thank you 🥰❤️
Thank you for adopting Beppo when no one wanted adopt Beppo. You're amazing
@@Hangtwnow he needs a brother lol 😊
this is so cute😭 i’m happy that he got a home!
Happy to have him here 🥰
GOD bless you for adopting this precious kitty thankyou we need more people in this world like you .... i have a rescue kitty too was the BEST DECISION EVER ...wish you all the happiness, health and happy memories w you and your new kitty ...🐾❤️🐈⬛🐾✨️🌅🏡
A little tip, don't give them bowls that are too high for their food, a lot of cats don't like that because of their whiskers. And also thank you for giving Bepo a home. ❤
I agree. I feed Furnando out of shallow bowls which are low to the ground and curved not square corners like a box. He does not like trying to lick food out of corners. Filling them more often gives me more control over his appetite and weight. I also add a few tooth cleaning treats to the bottom of every bowl.
They also like their bowls wide for the same reason ( their whiskers ).
yeah, i even used plate lol
Yes, in the wild they don’t eat out of containers so shallow saucers vs deep whisker (sensor) cramping bowls will fare much better.
Bepo is gorgeous.Having a cat share their home with you is a blessing! Cats are magical creatures. Loved watching him gradually settle and now your home is his home ❤
One of the best things you had that allowed this to happen, was patience. You had the patience to allow Bepo the time he needed to adjust, and the patience to discover and mesh with Bepo's particular personality. Thank you for giving Bepo a home, and to give him all the love he deserves; as well as excepting all his quirks along with the endless love he gives in return.
This is one of the best videos I’ve seen in years! I confess that I laughed at some things that weren’t supposed to be funny but I’m a lifetime cat person so some of your observations were funny. The photography and editing on this video looked professional. Just a marvelous video. Bepo is beautiful!
This is so cute I love Bepo already 😭 It's so nice to see elderly cats being brought home from shelters. But one piece of advice I have is that when playing with the laser toy make sure to give him a treat at the end because I've heard that lasers can be very frustrating for cats since they aren't able to actually 'catch' the red dot. After playing with the laser you should let Bepo "catch" the dot which you have directed to the treat. It gives them a sense of catching pray and makes them less agitated! :)
Thank you for adopting him!!! Literally love cats, just got an automatic feeder for mine and was a total game changer too ❤️
Omg yesss the automatic feeder is amazing. Bepo loves hanging around by it 😂 never late for a meal
Bepo is one lucky cat to have you and Kyle come into his shelter that day!
I think we’re the ones who got lucky 🥹 he’s the best boy
❤❤❤❤❤
I'm so glad abepo returned ! You both are so cute with this video Good for you for adopting Bepo.
It's awesome to see how Bepo changed your life and insightful to hear the perspective of somebody who never had a pet and had misconceptions about the experience. I LOVE cats, particularly adult and senior kitties and I thank you for showing the world how great adult/older cats can be. Cats are very special creatures; they can be amazing teachers and companions if we allow it; and they will enhance our lives by their very nature. Thank you for being open to something new and for sharing your story and inspiring others!😺
👍
Girl, he adopted you! This is beautiful.
Awww he’s adorable! How could anyone not want that cutie? I’m happy you’re taking good care of him though! 🫶🏼💞
right! how could nobody want him😢 i’m glad he’s found his forever home 🏡
I think of it as he was just waiting for me 🥺
@@Hangtw this is actually so tear jerking omg 😭
Just let me start by saying that he is absolutely precious. I have never been a cat person until I got our cat from a shelter if I could adopt a whole bunch, I would I never knew much about cats, but they are very, very smart self-sufficient they really do, adapt to you and want love and they are very good for people with the anxiety. I have always been to person but now I really think that I’m a cat person. I think you’re awesome because you are giving that cat the best years of its life I feel like if people could just give cats a chance
Aww thank you for giving Bepu a family and a home. I'm a rescuer and wish I could save aaalll animals, but sadly, that's impossible. This made me smile the whole time I was watching your video. It's hard enough for strays to get a new home, let alone old and sick furbabies. I'm sure he's grateful to you for choosing him, and even more sure that your lives are much better with Bepu in it.
He's sooooo cute! I love how big and fluffy he is! Thank you for adopting him! He looks super happy and loved 🥰
Love seeing senior cats being adopted. Y’all are awesome ❤❤❤
He is so cute and new life God bless both of you❤❤❤
It’s so cute and funny to see new cat parents! Thank you for giving Bepo a wonderful, loving home. 🐾🐾♥️
I am a firm believer in "when the animal picks you, you don't argue". Bepo found his person. Thank you for listening to him.
So sweet! Aren't you glad you were open to having your heart touched by this angel of a fur baby? You really lucked out with Beppo because not all cats are cuddly like he is.
You’re a good cat mama!😻 Bepo is one lucky boy! I’ve had dozens of cats throughout my life. Most have been feral cats that have either been abandoned or born in the wild. All of them have been amazing and have added to the quality of my life. Thank you for choosing a shelter cat who needed a home and especially an older cat that is difficult to rehome. This video and your message about adopting an older cat is so important for people to hear. Bless you both!❤❤❤
Thanks for giving Bepo a loving home. It is evident that he brings you much happiness. I am so glad he chose you and you gave him a chance!
I can only congratulate you on being openminded and adoting him with the understanding of cats you had before! Very happy for all of you, especially Bepo! Only one note: id recomend getting a lower bowl for feeding him because a cats whiskers are very sensitive and they usually prefer to eat from a dish without touching it with whiskers :)
you’re a good mama :) Bepo looks so happy in his home with his family
Thank you for advocating for older cats.
I could not decide on what cat to adopt at the shelter for a birthday present for myself. Like others my beloved kitty died years before and I stayed alone. As I was leaving to "sleep" on a decision, a paw came out of the cage and grabbed onto my sweater. Thats it, she picked me. So happy with my new little one, Louie Bell. So spoiled too.
He looks sooo sweet! 😻 Like a mix between a little lion and a big teddy bear! And he's such a kind and friendly soul. Thank you for giving him a home! Great job!
It's always heartwarming to see a cat getting adopted and bonding with it's owners. It always melts my heart and I'm glad you 3 found each other. I've also had multiple cats for roughly 25 or so years. They are great.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! ❤❤❤
You are adorable woman, who found adorable cat.
God bless! ❤
Awwww Bepo (and his cloudy eye) totally deserved a loving home. My heart breaks everytime I hear a pet is rejected over these things. You're nice and loving people. Thank you for proving not everything sucks and most people are nice and we can all learn too.
Thank you for adopting this adorable senior cat. The world needs more people like you, to take a chance on a senior cat. They are the most loving of all. My one cat "April" was at a shelter forever, I saw her on the internet. I fell in love because even though she was very rough looking, had lived there for a long time I felt she needed a home for however long she had left. I took her home the next day and gave her love, food and sunshine. She enriched my life for one year before she passed away, but she had the best year of her life.
This is soooo adorable 😭 Thank you for spreading awarenes about how loveable older cats can be too! They need a home just like the younger ones. When I adopted my cats, they were older too, because the younger ones will be adopted no matter what.
Great video. Love that you adopted an adult pet. They are the best. I just adopted the youngest pet I’ve brought home in decades. He almost nine months old. He’s a male cat named Teddy. I adore him.
This video popped up randomly for me and I am so glad I watched it. I am a cat lover and this is a wonderful video promoting cat ownership especially for the older cat. Bepo clearly loves you, thank you for giving him a loving home.
I just want an entire channel dedicated to Bepo and how he loves his forever parents! 🐾♥️
Was not expecting to get emotional from this video 😭 thank you adopting bepo
🥺❤️ love him to pieces
Please give him a wider bowl because he needs to be able to get to the food without squishing his whiskers. They are important to his balance and he needs them. NEVER trim them either. The only other thing is PLEASE keep him indoors ALWAYS. Being older he is more vulnerable to disease and infection and predators.
He is so adorable
Just what I wanted to add re the flatter, wider dish. I think it’s called whisker fatigue. You and Bepo seem like the perfect match! 😊
keeping pet cats indoors is very important!
He's such a wonderful boy, thank you for adopting this sweet guy.
My oldest cat is 22 and she is the sweetest little thing on this Earth (her name is actually Sweetie), thank you so much for giving this baby a chance!
It seems bepo was so amazed at his new house! Having struggles being adopted, you gave this furry ball so much love!
Bepo is an absolutely GORGEOUS BOI!!! Wow! You hit the motherlode because he’s sweet, cute and playful, too! And drop dead gorgeous!
What a sweet cat. Thank you for rescuing him❤
We have adopted several street cats, which has been a tremendous rewarding experience. So many need a good home, so a big thank you for taking caring for Bepo and providing such a loving and caring home. 🤗
So sweet ❤ you were meant to find him 😻
🥹❤️🫶🏻
I love that you're advocating for older cat adoption. So important ❤
You guys are wonderful pet owners. So nice to see how patient you were the first few days while Bepo got used to his new home. Very heartwarming video!🤗🐈🐱
You are so sweet with a big heart.
Thank you for adopting him ❤
thank you for being patient with him and giving him a chance - I know he appreciates it and you are wonderful cat parents!!
Cats are truly wonderful creatures
I recently went through a similar experience of being nervous about pet ownership and then bringing home an affectionate senior cat. They are just so happy to be loved and cared for, I'm so glad Bepo has a safe and warm place to call home 😭
You are an angel for adopting him ♥️
THANK YOU FOR SHARING HIM
I wanted to see more of this boi so bad
I literally subbed to your channel because of the short you shared adopting him lol
Aww thank you! I’ll try sharing more videos of him ☺️
AHWKGKJQNTJABFIMAJG! PLEASE DOOOO! HES PERFECT
SAMEE
❤❤❤❤❤
me too i adopted a 2 year old male cat in a shelter, everyone was looking for kittens and i just saw him chillin there and i decided to adopt him. It was one of the best decision of my life!
Aww, he looks so happy! Congratulations on the addition to your family!
Older cats and kittens always provided me with emotional and physical therapy. When we pet or stroke a cat, it causes a release of oxytocin in both humans and our animal companions, which can also reduce pain. Thanks for giving him a chance. People don't know what they're missing.
The world needs more of this, thanking all three of you for this wonderful video!!
Congratulations❤thank you
been following you since tumblr, as a cat mama myself - so happy you found a friend in Bepo and so happy you're promoting senior rescues too!
I love this video. I have never before seen this young lady, but I already feel such a fondness for her and her partner! And Bepo! This touches my tender, furbaby-loving heart! 🐾🐾♥️
You’re a good person for giving this cat home. Congratulations on your new family member .❤
Who are the blind and uncaring folks who wouldn't want a cat like that? Smh. Every stray deserves a home with folks who will give them the love they deserve.
Thank you for opening your home to Bepo! I'm sure he's very loving and grateful for your love
It’s not always that someone is blind and uncaring. Don’t assume bad things about people. A lot of people need a pet that they have a chance of having a longer time with, and even though it’s never guaranteed that they won’t get sick along the way, not everyone can take on the true emotional challenge of adopting elder animals. We should encourage people to adopt whether they want a baby, a teen, an adult, or an elder.
@@himenyx153you are so true
I am so happy for you and this whole thing is rlly close to my meeting with my cat who passed away sadly but i hope you a bepo live longs lives and are by each others side
