Dog rescues tiny kitten from the rubble of a fire, adopting her and not leaving her side, and the kitten falls right back in love with her: 'The kitten actually cries if the dog moves from the kennel'

When we talk about the cat distribution system being a real thing, we don't just mean that this system helps cats adopt their humans. That is true, of course, but we have heard it time and time again. We already know that is how it works. We know that even if we walk into a shelter, looking to adopt a cat, it is not us who will adopt the cat, because in the end, the cat will choose us. But did you know that the system works for dogs too?

It's true. Sometimes, the cat distribution system aims its meowgic not at us but at our canines. Sometimes, cats will adopt dogs and not humans. We will be second priority on that list, and you know what? We will be purrfectly happy about that. Because seeing our cats and our dogs get along so pawfectly will be more than worth it. Seeing them happy with one another will bring us all the joy that we will ever need.
