Pets with behavioral issues are never easy to take care of, but that doesn't mean they don't deserve the most amazing forever home. What happens though, when you find out that the pet's behavioral issues most likely stemmed from fear rather than anything else? You get the story of Cheddar Kevin the cat.
bythezu, on imgur, shared their kitty's story, and it first broke our hear then put it right back together. Because this poor kitty has been re-homed 5 times since he would pee everywhere. Yet, when he got to bythezu home, he didn't have an issue. It seems that the reason is that the poor guy kept being put into busy home which were simply too scary for him.
He's happy now though, and will be happy for the rest of his life, and that's all that matters. If you have your own heartwarming pet stories, come share them in our Facebook community: ICanHas Storytime.
"A rescue kitten who has been re-homed 5 times as mentioned. We saw his little face on the ad, called... and they basically told us he would pee on everything we owned. Constantly. They also said he's a sweetheart who really needs a forever home. He is just scared of other animals and kids. It's rather heartbreaking that he kept getting put into homes that had the same "busy" environment, and led him to get left at the SPCA so many times. I understand that these previous families tried to make it work, guess he just kept peeing on everything with no end in sight. So the SPCA decided to put him on anxiety meds to ease his stress and make sure the next adopters would be serious about taking him."
"We slept on it, discussed it over a million times. We were his best option being in a home with no other pets or children. Living outside the city where it's quiet. He had a chance to be better here, so maybe we needed to try."
"He was scared at first of course but he warmed up quick and is seriously the sweetest boy. He's been great, and we even took him off his meds. He's a purrrfect little homie who just wants a big window and cuddles."
