‘I never was a cat person, but…’: Dad goes from skeptic to snuggler after adopting two cute kittens that took him on a heartwarming journey

This guy's girlfriend had been purrsuing the idea of getting a pet for ages, but their busy schedules made having a dog impawsible. So she pitched a cat. As a self proclaimed "not a cat person" (do those even exist?), he was skeptical. But after doing some research (and learning that cats are loveable little fuzzballs who thrive with a buddy), he finally caved… on one condition: they get two.

Enter their furmidable duo. From the start, one kitten was shy and not totally ready to trust her new hoomans. The other was a certified snugglebug, always ready for a catnap on a lap.

Fast forward six months, and the once-cautious kitty now joins in for nightly cuddle sessions. Her affectionate sister? Still the undisputed queen of cozy. These days are filled with zoomies, double trouble play sessions, and more purrs than they ever thought possible.

What started as a hesitant decision turned out to be a total catch. He's now fully converted proud cat dad. Moral of the story? Never doubt the purrsuasive power of two whiskered roomies.
