When my Mom was first diagnosed with Alzheimer’s we got her a kitten in 2006 that she gave three different names. Mom passed in 2011, the cat in 2022. It brought mom so much joy, that cat lived like royalty. RIP kitten kitten, misty, midnight
Mum and I lived on our own and we had a black cat called Jet for the past 10 years, but when mum was officially diagnosed with Alzheimer's two years ago, Jet became really close to her and sleeps with her all the time and even helped to keep her calm. Sadly mum, now 82, is now in a care home but Jet is super close to me, right now he is fast asleep on my legs. Black cats are the best.
@@insufferabletempest1829 tbh you see this happen with little kids and animals often as well... they somehow can feel the situation and understand it's not THAT bad, but when they have had it completely will still make it known.
Yep cause cats are miraculous human detector. If your cats who arent shy in general are hiding when a guest is here instead of being friendly...that's a bad note ~~ everytime my cats did that, those friends turned out to be shady aF
Maybe she had a pet cat when she was younger and it died or it ran away and she never got one since but they gave her one and it reminds her of her old black cat or kitten.
So cute !!! The young people are so busy living their lives & they have kids... They don't realize how lonely the elderly get. She got a box of love and a friend.
The belief is actually black cat brings bad luck when seen out of his home... Most people forget this part. And because of that their adoption rate in shelter is lower than other cats. Also because they were associated to witchcraft, some crazy nuts search for them for rituals..

That's a misconception of how most cats behave. The running away part is alright but the scratching not so much. It takes a cat being abused for them to just out their claws like that.
I have been fostering cats for years, and can say with certainty that what Dawn Bloss said is true. Yes, a lot do run and hide in a new environment but give them a few days of time to adjust and most are then perfectly okay. Almost every cat that I've ever been scratched or bitten by are cats that have been abused, or are terrified. Most of the time it's cause they're scared and it's the owners job to prevent those negative feelings as much as possible and to know when not to approach the cat. They don't ever attack or scratch without reason. You may not know the reason but if you're cat is mean/aggressive then there is a problem somewhere
It was good that Grandma got a full grown cat instead of a kitten. Calmer and easier for an elderly person to deal with. Older pets are often euthanized because most people want kittens. Same with dogs.
I love kittens but they are so much like toddlers exploring and overflowing with energy therefore I always prefer older cats. Plus their claws and teeth are so tiny and sharp it's like razor blades especially if they are hiding under furniture and go after a bare foot.
Black cats and dogs, especially, are less likely to be adopted, though there are some dillweeds who get black cats for their Halloween parties or costumes and then dump them afterwards.
@@evilsharkey8954 I'm thinking of getting a male black cat with green eyes and call it Toothless. I want people that believe in those superstitions to be afraid but I'll NEVER throw up or give up my cat. My cat is still well and alive though so that won't be in a long time.
@@michellegriff13 same here, my first cat was 5 when I adopted him and a few months after that I got a kitten companion for him, she was a little over 2 months. Well, never again, lol. Very cute indeed but it is work. They are toddlers, so intensely curious and playful which is adorable but also means you constantly have to be on guard to prevent them from doing anything dangerous in their energetic curiousity. And in the end she happened to turn out not very cuddly which disappoints me a little although I love her a lot. So I'm glad for the experience but I'm only adopting older cats where I know the personality with any additions to the family.
EXTINCTION RITUAL Don’t. They probably had him in there for a few moments in order to surprise her. He would be dead if they left him in there for more than a minute.

Also considering the grandmas age this was an even more thoughtful gift! Both parties super happy 🥺💖 I love this video so much I wish them the happiest life together
Exactly, perfect choice for an oldster. Kittens can be a lot of work for awhile whereas a grown cat mainly wants to lounge about in comfort and get some chin scratching here and there. I’m sure they will make each other very happy. As for the added health benefit of having a loving little fur baby around to give you a little extra extra purpose that’s not always there in someone’s elder years, well that’s undeniable.😻
@@DuckybeauROBLOX if the cat really wanted to get away, trust me, it would've. Scratches and all. That is a very calm cat considering it never met her before.
Everyone else is saying it but yeah anyone who knows cats is aware that most of them aren't super keen on being hugged by strangers so this was just... INSTANT bond. I'll bet the four years they spent together were heaven for that sweet kitty.
That's an impressively gentle cat - many would spring out of a strange lap, and you can tell from his face he's a little freaked out, but he sat down and took the hugs anyway. So patient and calm. Very happy this sweet lady got such a sweet fuzzy friend.
Almost every kitty, except for one, was that way with me, but even that one got that way with me after a while. This was true of them, regardless of them being black kitties, or being other types of kitties.
It's so chill. My own black cat would have been out of the box and under the sofa the moment the lid was lifted, and would have stayed there until she deemed the room to be danger free. I'm pleased for the mum's sake her cat was fine to be cuddled.
I love how the cat is clearly confused and a little bothered but didn't try to escape at all and soon snuggled up to your mom, they're both so precious OMG
Kids think they are so much better with cats than anyone else I mean some cuz I tamed a wild seven-year old Tom when I was 11 but like many other kids are all annoying and think their cat is the best when it's like ppl you don't even care for it you just give it cuddles while your parents do all the work
People are endlessly talking about how calm the cat is. However notice how perfectly placed her hands and arms are. she has a lifetime of experience to know exactly how to handle a random cat. Pure skill from experience.
@@roachdoggjr419 Do cats normally have beef with dogs? I feel likes it's normally dogs who have beef with dogs. From experience (Currently have 3 dogs & 4 cats) the dogs are chill with cats the kitten with even play with puppy, but it's the dogs that'll fight.
@@lastlifejumbo from my experience the dogs are curious enough to come off as threatening or an invader of personal space. I have yet to see any stray cat attack first without provocation, there is at at least 5 strays at the park where i walk with my dog and they are chill.
I really appreciate that giving an adult cat especially to an elderly person is treated just like giving a kitten would be! Not everyone needs the hassle of a kitten in their lives. And we like kittens but we spend most of our cat loving time on the adult cat.
adult cats get far less chances, too, because everyone always wants kittens. i personally only ever adopt grown cats from shelters. i feel as if they need love the most, as they probably missed out on so much of it their whole lives. god bless this family
and she was shaking! I’m sure she was a bit overwhelmed but you can also see how excited and loving she was toward the cat immediately. really makes me miss my black cat 😢 they’re just the sweetest
This is one of those feel-good videos I have to come back to every year or so. Her reaction is so pure, I wish we could all feel such joy. What a chill cat, too. May her soul fly high.
I'm glad they were wise enough to get an adult cat that was clearly raised around humans instead of a frisky kitten. Older cats make much better companions for older people who need something to share affection with instead of something to keep up with.
Very well said, I volunteer at shelter for older cats only (because they have a lot less chances to be adopted). We try to explain this to everyone, it's a lot easier to find your perfect match when the cat is an adult and has developed their personality.
@@iria9755 Yea, I wouldn't have understood this five or six years ago; but then my wife (who cares more about animals than her own life and whose presence makes me the luckiest SOB alive) started working at a shelter. She tells me all kinds of things I never thought of about animals, animal care, and adoption. And one of the big things is about their "matchmakers" who get to know the dogs and cats they have and try to match them with the people and/or families wanting to adopt.
I can't believe how calm and placid the cat was after being in a box and then being hugged by someone it didn't know yet, that is a special cat for sure
allmighty30011 Obviously this is an animal loving family, they already have a dog, I think they probably considered all of that. Plus, from our point of view, we are just speculating. Maybe Grandma lives with her family. We don’t know! So let’s just enjoy the beauty and sweetness ❤️❤️❤️
I'm guessing the cat was picked from a shelter for that exact reason - it loves everyone. One of mine is like that, he knows no strangers, only friends who haven't petted him yet.
My black cat is a bit skittish around strangers, but she bonded to me instantly. I found her in a motel parking lot on my 21st birthday. She had no collar or tags, and I spoke to both of the owners, who said no one had checked in with a cat all month. But she trotted up right to me meowing and when I picked her up she started nuzzling and purring. It's been two years and she's always begging for attention and curling up beside me when I'm lounging on the couch or asleep.
To me, the cat looks a bit nervous. Not surprising when at a new place he or she don't know, and lots of strange people and dogs. But no doubt the kitty will have settled down and warmed up to things with a bit of time :)
As a person who has a 90 year old grandma, I know first hand that elderly people are some of the sweetest and best people on the planet, so this video makes me happy.
I’m crying right now. My dog is at the vet and has a one percent chance of living. I’m absolutely devastated. I rescue cats so it’s not like I don’t have other animals, but my dog is my baby. He really is like my child. People that don’t have pets don’t understand. This was so heartwarming.
I am sorry I know it’s hard but I hope you know that your boy is still going to be with you I mean most people tho that have a cat and a dog most will have favorites like a dog would be loved more than the cat so you have other animals too you’re definitely a good person and it was kind for you to rescue the other animals I also love animals but I hope to rescue cats that want to eat or be cared for cause all stray cats that I met were very sweet and affectionate one of them has a true loving bond with me it’s a brown spotted and striped tabby cat he’s like my son and I would be also heartbroken if he does die too
My condolences to you dear honestly I am glad that I am not the only one thinking that our pets are our children they are but different and four legs and fur people thought it was crazy to call my cats my babies but if people can call their dogs their kids cats can also be called kids too why not
@@RYLety-lb8bs I love my cats so, so much, but I had my dog for so much longer. My cats are just like my babies too. I just took another one in so I’m up to 8 cats now, lol. They give me so much pleasure. I’ve been looking into opening a cat charity because I have about 15 cats that live outside that I take care of. I go through 3 or 4 thirty pound bags of meow mix a month and about 10 cases of wet food. That’s just for the outdoor cats. I go through a lot inside too, but I feel it’s worth it to keep them fed and healthy.
@@dawnrobinson6488 yes you’re a very kind person and your dog knows that I feel bad for you I know that losing a pet is hard I know one thing tho is that a animal when they die they come back so your dog will be one of your cats and at least you have your cats with you to comfort you I see the picture of you and your doggie
Whoa let's not talk crazy now lol that cat is dumber than a rock , the lady is just gentle and soft so the cat felt safe haha you've mistaken the cat for a dog.

Everyone else is saying it but yeah anyone who knows cats is aware that most of them aren't super keen on being hugged by strangers so this was just... INSTANT bond. I'll bet the four years they spent together were heaven for that sweet kitty.
The way she's holding and cherishing the cat like a baby. It's just so cute.

Hello again
and a very gentle cat to be in box then held by the lady without a care
That's an impressively gentle cat - many would spring out of a strange lap, and you can tell from his face he's a little freaked out, but he sat down and took the hugs anyway. So patient and calm. Very happy this sweet lady got such a sweet fuzzy friend.
Almost every kitty, except for one, was that way with me, but even that one got that way with me after a while. This was true of them, regardless of them being black kitties, or being other types of kitties.
Cats are often gentler with kids and elderly people 🥹 they just know!
Yeah agrees
Nah, she had the technique nailed down, she squeezed the cat and it didn't go nowhere
@@sbefyeah she's clearly a black belt in Brazilian Cat-Jitsu. Within mere seconds, the woman forced the cat into submission. Remarkable.
This woman is full of love instantly. Like a long lost baby. One lucky cat. Made me cry happy tears for her. What a dear woman.
yea that woman literally cried
Ohhh!
Yes she is verry, verry, verry happy
My grandma hates cats cos they poop on her car
@@mollymolly_leader1376 Haha😂👍
She’s happily in heaven she will always be in your heart❤

Me too man
Right. It warms my heart.
Hope she’s ok...
What a sweet kitty. That cat understood the assignment perfectly.
“I don’t know where I am or what’s going on… but I trust this elderly human for some reason ❤️”
It's so chill. My own black cat would have been out of the box and under the sofa the moment the lid was lifted, and would have stayed there until she deemed the room to be danger free.
I'm pleased for the mum's sake her cat was fine to be cuddled.

Not gonna lie, thats one of the cutest things i've ever seen
same

Yes
I love how the cat is clearly confused and a little bothered but didn't try to escape at all and soon snuggled up to your mom, they're both so precious OMG
it didn't snuggle up to the mom at any point but okay
@@DylanLCutshalldoes it matter, Carl? Are you that bothered?
@@jaysax7381 yes, I'm that bothered.
cats with little kids: imma head out
cats with elderly people: this lap is my home
wink wink that’s usually because young kids usually chase cats and go crazy with them lol
Kids think they are so much better with cats than anyone else I mean some cuz I tamed a wild seven-year old Tom when I was 11 but like many other kids are all annoying and think their cat is the best when it's like ppl you don't even care for it you just give it cuddles while your parents do all the work
belles own world yeah and all they do is scream and play games which gives the cat less attention and it’s stressful for the cat.
Cats with teens: eh i guess she’s aright her body is comfy though
Not all kids, I'm 11 and my cats love me and cuddle with me. I also don't just chase them around, that scares them.
What a wonderful give. So nicce to see her happiness. The world needs more of it.
A very polite cat. It clearly looks confused and not entirely happy with its situation, but doesnt get hissy. 10/10
“That’s a great cat right there”
Life lesson.
Probably smells the dogs too
The way she immediately hugs the cat is so heartwarming and gave me a big smile bless her
Oh yeah yeah

I cry every time i see this video 🥺
Elderly people are cute. They warm my heart.
The cat's eyes at around 0:42 are so precious when she calls him a darling! ❤️
The level of joy a cat brings into your life when you've not had one in a long time is unparalleled.
Yes, it warms my heart that its an adult too, adults need love, kittens need more care, like way more
Unparalleled? What about goldfish I mean dogs?
@@rupertshean long time then cat is truely unparalleled
True

What a good cat. Wins the hearts of elderly women like no problem.
Not afraid at all, that's a great cat right there

that's a great cat right thea
The cat got comfortable really quickly in her lap
xaraxen It didn't really have a choice. That old lady kinda held him there, lol
Rick C-137 you don't know cats then 😂 she definitely had a choice 😋😊
xaraxen The cat knew she is a good human
I would too after being in a box 😌
ThatTastedPurple please don't bring rascist comments into this, it has nothing to do with skin color.
Awww she said it's heavy, this is so precious 🐈⬛
that little "oh" when the cat pokes her head out of the Box... omg
Sweet huh? :)
That first hug got me!
People are endlessly talking about how calm the cat is. However notice how perfectly placed her hands and arms are. she has a lifetime of experience to know exactly how to handle a random cat. Pure skill from experience.
They also probably picked the cat because it was gentle like that.
Nah still tho that cat is chill as all hell its not even got beef with the dog
@@roachdoggjr419 Do cats normally have beef with dogs? I feel likes it's normally dogs who have beef with dogs. From experience (Currently have 3 dogs & 4 cats) the dogs are chill with cats the kitten with even play with puppy, but it's the dogs that'll fight.
@@lastlifejumbo from my experience the dogs are curious enough to come off as threatening or an invader of personal space. I have yet to see any stray cat attack first without provocation, there is at at least 5 strays at the park where i walk with my dog and they are chill.
I’m pretty sure she grabbed the cat out of excitement you kinda don’t wanna do that with some animal you don’t know
I really appreciate that giving an adult cat especially to an elderly person is treated just like giving a kitten would be! Not everyone needs the hassle of a kitten in their lives. And we like kittens but we spend most of our cat loving time on the adult cat.
adult cats get far less chances, too, because everyone always wants kittens. i personally only ever adopt grown cats from shelters. i feel as if they need love the most, as they probably missed out on so much of it their whole lives. god bless this family
Also as like humanbeings, adult cats behave better than kittens (and look way better than kittens, again, like humans imo)
And black cats are more difficult to re-home coz of stupid superstitions.
Adopted adult cats from shelters arguably show the most love and affection then any other type of cat.
That cat looked quite young still, between 1 and 3
idk why but this brought tears in my eyes. most wholesome thing i have watched in a while
This grandma is the internet's grandma. We all love her.

This is one of those feel-good videos I have to come back to every year or so. Her reaction is so pure, I wish we could all feel such joy. What a chill cat, too. May her soul fly high.
Nothing more wholesome than a happy old lady.
I agree
Yeah, happy old people are bliss for the heart
AGWEED
I'm glad they were wise enough to get an adult cat that was clearly raised around humans instead of a frisky kitten. Older cats make much better companions for older people who need something to share affection with instead of something to keep up with.
Very well said, I volunteer at shelter for older cats only (because they have a lot less chances to be adopted). We try to explain this to everyone, it's a lot easier to find your perfect match when the cat is an adult and has developed their personality.
@@iria9755 Yea, I wouldn't have understood this five or six years ago; but then my wife (who cares more about animals than her own life and whose presence makes me the luckiest SOB alive) started working at a shelter. She tells me all kinds of things I never thought of about animals, animal care, and adoption.
And one of the big things is about their "matchmakers" who get to know the dogs and cats they have and try to match them with the people and/or families wanting to adopt.

allmighty30011 Obviously this is an animal loving family, they already have a dog, I think they probably considered all of that. Plus, from our point of view, we are just speculating. Maybe Grandma lives with her family. We don’t know! So let’s just enjoy the beauty and sweetness ❤️❤️❤️
Right? I kind of envy the cat!

the cat instantly liked her. that's rare
I'm guessing the cat was picked from a shelter for that exact reason - it loves everyone. One of mine is like that, he knows no strangers, only friends who haven't petted him yet.
dlfurrey I have the same exact breed of cat, and it is very gentle and loves to sit on people.
My black cat is a bit skittish around strangers, but she bonded to me instantly. I found her in a motel parking lot on my 21st birthday. She had no collar or tags, and I spoke to both of the owners, who said no one had checked in with a cat all month. But she trotted up right to me meowing and when I picked her up she started nuzzling and purring. It's been two years and she's always begging for attention and curling up beside me when I'm lounging on the couch or asleep.
To me, the cat looks a bit nervous. Not surprising when at a new place he or she don't know, and lots of strange people and dogs. But no doubt the kitty will have settled down and warmed up to things with a bit of time :)
@@Nemrai yea she is smacking a little bit, but it still kinda seemed to feel safe with the lady.
In those 51 seconds, the stress of the day melted away. A wonderful old lady, a wonderful black cat, and a wonderful family. Thank you...

I’m crying right now. My dog is at the vet and has a one percent chance of living. I’m absolutely devastated. I rescue cats so it’s not like I don’t have other animals, but my dog is my baby. He really is like my child. People that don’t have pets don’t understand. This was so heartwarming.
I am sorry I know it’s hard but I hope you know that your boy is still going to be with you I mean most people tho that have a cat and a dog most will have favorites like a dog would be loved more than the cat so you have other animals too you’re definitely a good person and it was kind for you to rescue the other animals I also love animals but I hope to rescue cats that want to eat or be cared for cause all stray cats that I met were very sweet and affectionate one of them has a true loving bond with me it’s a brown spotted and striped tabby cat he’s like my son and I would be also heartbroken if he does die too
My condolences to you dear honestly I am glad that I am not the only one thinking that our pets are our children they are but different and four legs and fur people thought it was crazy to call my cats my babies but if people can call their dogs their kids cats can also be called kids too why not
I understand how you feel I lost couple of cats in my childhood it’s very hard I was depressed and sad
@@RYLety-lb8bs I love my cats so, so much, but I had my dog for so much longer. My cats are just like my babies too. I just took another one in so I’m up to 8 cats now, lol.

I go through 3 or 4 thirty pound bags of meow mix a month and about 10 cases of wet food. That’s just for the outdoor cats. I go through a lot inside too, but I feel it’s worth it to keep them fed and healthy.
@@dawnrobinson6488 yes you’re a very kind person and your dog knows that I feel bad for you I know that losing a pet is hard I know one thing tho is that a animal when they die they come back so your dog will be one of your cats and at least you have your cats with you to comfort you I see the picture of you and your doggie
