Funny Tweet Leads To Heartwarming Adoption Stories (Twitter Thread)

When funny turns unexpectedly wholesome. What started with a funny viral tweet comparing dog people and cat people has turned into an explosion of wholesome adoption stories being shared by both cat people and dog people (mostly cats though). 

Cat people and dog people both love their pets, whether they were bought or whether they were rescued from inside of a car engine. Of course, there is something special about rescuing pets and giving them their forever homes, but at the end of the day, all pets deserve love, including the ones that are up for sale. So, enjoy these incredibly heartwarming adopt-don't-shop stories.
