Heartwarming hooman spends months trying to befriend sweet stray cat who wanders around their house, decides to take the fluffy feline in despite their allergies: ‘She has really grown on me’

The best kinds of love stories are the ones that don't happen right away. Think about your favorite romantic tropes in movies, TV shows, or books. Friends to lovers, dramatic slow burns, and our personal favorite–enemies to lovers. All those great love stories didn't happen right away, because the pair had to work for it. Had to fight for each other, and earn the other's love and affection. And as an audience, those are the best and most heartwarming stories to experience.

If you ask any cat pawrent, they will tell you their story with their feisty feline is no different from any great Hollywood love story. It's no secret that a cat is not a particularly trusting animal, so hoomans have to work hard to find love. Some even had the honor to experience the enemies-to-lovers trope, having to gain a cat's trust despite all the hardship, and watching how their personality changes the more love and care they are given.
