We think that at this point, everyone can agree that cats adopt their humans rather than the other way around, right? We have seen too many examples. It is rare at this point, for us to hear a story about someone actually walking into a shelter to get a cat. It's always the cat finding them in some strange place instead.
And cats really do spawn in some silly places. We have seen everything from stories about cats just walking into people's houses one day and… staying, without warning, questions or asking for permission. We have seen cats jump into people's cars as people are just going on about their days. We have even written about a kitten flying through someone's window and into their lap. Don't know how it happened exactly. We just know that it did, and when it did, the person's first thought was that they had a cat now and had to go shopping for supplies.
Of course, when our cats adopt us, they don't just adopt us. Oftentimes, we are a package deal. Sometimes, they adopt our partners by proxy. They don't have to bond with them as much as they bond with us, but they have to be okay with them living in the house too. That's the deal. And sometimes, they adopt our pets as well.
Usually, it is a process. The cat adopts the human, the human takes them home, and there, the cat is surprised to find another furry creature that they have to share the love with. Maybe they become friends right away, maybe it takes them a while to warm up to one another. Eventually, it happens, but it doesn't often start that way.
In today's videos though, the kitten knew exactly what she was getting into from the get-go. She sensed her future human, ran out to find him, and ran straight into his two golden retrievers as well. And she still chose to follow them home and become a part of their family. Because it was meant to be.
