“He came right up to us and chose us as his humans”: Cat parents save orange cat hiding from the Texas heat; they take him from missing fur and oil stains to loving member of their feline family

Summer and winter are purrticularly tough seasons for stray cats, for obvious reasons. We're extra worried about all the little fur babies out there trying to survive in this heat when we can barely handle it in our cool, air-conditioned houses. So, if you see a cat hiding underneath a car in the summer, please, please bring it inside and give it some water. The CDS doesn't take any days off, so if you see a cat hiding underneath a car avoiding the heat, congratulations! You've been presented with a purrfect new addition to your fluffy friends.

That's exactly what happened in the story below. Some cat parents found this sweet orange kitty trying to escape the Texas heat. And, just like all single-brain-celled cats, he walked right up to them without any hesitation and chose them as his pawrents. Poor guy was missing fur, had oil stains and a cough, but through their love, they got him healed up and now he's a loving member of their feline family!

Hey, you didn't save him a spot on the windowsill! Now, you must suffer his orange wrath - if he can't sit on the windowsill, then no one can. Oranges will be oranges, and this one is pawsitively orange (continue scrolling and you'll understand why).

This picture is purrfection. It's so silly, and very, very orange. We imagine Garfield would sit in this kind of pose after eating a whole batch of lasagna. Purrhaps he did just eat a whole batch of lasagna, he's looking very well-fed!
