‘No one claimed him and we fell in love with him, so we chose to keep him!’: The heartwarming tale of a cat found on a doorstep who was mistaken for a kitten, only to be revealed as a two-and-a-half-year-old adult who quickly stole his new owners' hearts

It is not all too often that we have the pleasure of sharing with you one of the sweetest and simplest rescue stories we have ever come across, and that is for good reason, seeing as they are far and few between. But we are delighted to say, that today we have the story of the young adult catto named Socks who waltzed into the lives of his rescuers a well-mannered boy who wanted nothing more than a loving home that would care for him and cuddle him as much as possible.

And boy, oh boy did he find exactly what he was looking for. This is one of those wonderful stories where everything just goes right, or at least everything that needs to go right to correct the wrong that had placed this poor feline out on the street in the first place.
