Aspiring cat mom purrsues an extremely shy black kitty from the shelter and adopts her, proving that the ‘Inverse Cat Distribution System’ is just as purrfect at uniting pawrents and kittens meant for each other

If you go to the "pick-a-purr" building in search of the best cat for you, you might be partaking in the "Inverse Cat Distribution System." That's what the aspiring cat mother does in this next story, and won't let a pawdorable black kitty take "neow" for an answer!

Sure, pet parents usually gravitate toward the animals that show them the most love upon first meeting. It makes sense; You want to build a furever home with an animal who wants the same thing, too. Sometimes, though, animals are shy all around. So many introverted creatures are written off because of their shy temperament, but not the cute black kitty in this next story!

The (now) cat mom walked into the shelter, locked her eyes on the long-haired beauty, and self-admittedly "became" part of the room so as not to disrupt the cat's peace of mind. She felt a certain kinship with the shy feline, but within days of adoption, she cultivated a cat mom-cat creature relationship with enough love to last both of them a lifetime. Scroll below to see photos of the introverted fella in her new home!
