Melody looks pawsitively jazzed to be exploring her new home. We hope she finds some peace and harmony with her new family, let's hope this expurrience doesn't fall flat. It should be a sharp learning curve for her new pawrents, black cats can be extra mischievous. Sometimes, they even give their orange brothers a run for their money!

"At 30 years old, I finally got my own place and adopted a cat! Meet Stevie Licks!'

It's never too late to adopt your first cat. We finally convinced our father (who is 63 years old) to adopt a cat after years of saying how much it would fit him. He caved, got a cat, and now the two are often caught napping together on the couch. It's beyond adorable.
