Well, when we read a sentence such as "She hasn't even touched the Christmas tree", we know it talks about a very special cat. And in this jolly time of year? Seriously, that's admirable. And this cat is apparently just as angelic as you'd imagine, after knowing she gracefully leaves the Christmas tree intact. What a sweet stray who became a sweet house princess. Really, we're beaming with purride just thinking about it.

But now that we've got "gushing over one of the sweetest cats we heard about recently" out of the way, it's time to gush about the ones and onlys who always make this happy-ending reality possible - the Cat Distribution System. It's like they are the someone, or something, that knows a sweet kitten crying in a dumpster needs a home right meow. And it sends the right hooman who's ready to adopt right their way. And this is exactly what happened to this gentle and tiny kitten. She was saved by this woman, and all seems well as she took her in and gave her a furrever home.

There's something so heartwarming about knowing a kitten wouldn't have to spend this winter outside - even if we don't even know this kitten. But that's what unites cat lovers all around the world - our love for cats, wherever and whenever they are.

    Turns out the CDS knows best. My little dumpster blessing. My instant bestie. I call her name and she comes running as fast as she can and flys onto my lap/face.

    She hasn't once woken me up overnight. When I get up in the morning she's always just playing quietly with one of her balls.

  • This closed-eyed look says “I'm comfortable. I can close my eyes and relax. This is enjoyable.”

    But the fact that the head is leaned back, meaning this kitten is probably lying on her back and exposes her belly says a lot more. Probably something like “I'm safe here. No cold weather, no dumpster crying. Just safety and trust from now on.”

    Exotic Reception4286 Tabby cats are the best. I've had two and they were the sweetest kitties. Both of them were rescues as kittens and grew up to be big.
