Nala the Former Feral Ginger Kitty Finds Forever Home, Slowly Recuperates After Long Journey Outside, Bravely Takes Nap On New Hooman Couch

Meet Nala, a rescue kitty who used to live in a dumpster before her human rescued her. She spoonfed Nala and slowly introduced her to the other pets in her household. At first, she wasn't sure if she could keep Nala — but she quickly fell in love, so obviously, she had no choice. Luckily, her other pets fell in love as well and treated Nala like their own.

Nala was terrified of humans in the beginning, and super skittish. But slowly she got used to her new environment, and grew to love the smell of the outside, human cuddles, and was happy she didn't have to fight for every meal. In fact, last Christmas was Nala's first holiday she celebrated, and it's just too adorable.

She was too scared to go downstairs for 2 years because she was wary of the adorable doggos who also occupied the premises. But her human got a new couch, and curiosity got the better of her… Scroll down to check out Nala's heartwarming story.
