People Show Pictures Of Their PetSmart Cats That Cost Them Almost Nothing But Are Now Priceless

Happy Friday, ICanHasers! How is everyone feeling today? We hope y'all are well and if you're not, same. Uh, we mean, we have something that ought to warm your souls and inspire you for greatness. We recently stumbled upon a Twitter thread where someone posted a photo of their white cat sunbathing on a living room couch and doing it oh so majestically. Along with the photo, they wrote that they adopted this cat 8 years ago from PetSmart. Not only that, but the cat was 50% off. Cat people quickly reacted and began to send in photos of their cats that they too, adopted from PetSmart and animal shelters. 

If there's any takeaway from this thread it's obviously a. adopt, don't shop, and b. you can't put a price tag on a beloved pet because, at the end of the day, there's nothing more valuable than the bond you share with your four-legged friends. We hope you enjoy this thread of adopted, rescued PetSmart cats!

    Cat - Lloyd.e.poo @Lloydepoo1 Not many know, when I was adopted 8 years ago from petsmart, I was one of two cats there and I was on clearance for 50% off. CLEARANCE! #catsoftwitter 10:24 PM. Aug 2, 2022 Twitter for iPhone
    via @Lloydepoo1

    It breaks our hearts to know that this beautiful cataroo was once marked with a 'clearance' and 50% off sign. We just can't wrap our minds around it. Thank god that 8 years ago you decided to head on to PetSmart and adopt this little fella. We can only imagine how things would have turned out for him if not for you.

    Product - Phillip Mac Creavis @PCreavis Replying to @Lloydepoo1 Same place I got my boy Snoopy. An independent rescue was allowed to showcase their adoptees. Snoopy wasn't a kitten and had a sinus infection. Nobody wanted him and it was heartbreaking. He's mine now and very much loved. He is the best boy. WEAT. JAM 7:27 AM. Aug 3, 2022.

    "…These were two of about 200 kittens on site."

    We repeat, if you have the chance, please adopt, don't shop. 200 kittens in need and that's only in one animal care center, can you guys imagine how many there are all over the world? They need us!

    Cat - Rebecca @grwaterfestival ... Replying to @Lloydepoo1 Our 5-month old kitten Dune was so shy that he was considered unadoptable and the no kill shelter was so thrilled that we had chosen each other that they waived the $150 adoption fee. I gave them twice that amount because he's worth it and they do good work. #Dune 5:47 AM - Aug 3, 2022. Twitter for iPhone
