‘His lonely recognizes my lonely’: Wholesome Woman Gets Adopted By Boastful Barn Cat After Losing Her Son, Shares Heartwarming Connection Story

Oh jeez, I Can Has-ers, get your tissues ready! This wholesome story thanks to the Cat Distribution System is one for the books.

According to her, the cat who she has named "Sawyer" immediately ran up to her and fell asleep on her lap. Sawyer lost his mom and his littermates last year, just like the woman. Needless to say, Sawyer seems to have chosen her for the benefit of both of them.
