Miracle stray cat joins the family at the purrfect time, rewarming the couch-spot of a recently lost dog: ‘[Franklin] was born the same week our dog passed’

This feline came to their new family with purrfect precision, making them ask themselves, 'What in reincarnation!?'

The Cat Distrbution System knows when cat lovers need a little pick-me-up. Often sending tidings in the form of fuzzy felines and adorably helpless kittens, the universe just understands when a hooman needs a feline to care for. Adopting a furever cat that stumbles into your life is no surprise for many cat lovers and oftentimes heroic hoomans will go looking for cats in need. However, the multi-pet family in this next story wasn't looking for sweet, lovable Franklin on that fateful day. 

But Franklin knew where his kitty cuddle services were needed—a home that recently lost one of their furry members.
