Cats and robots don't really get along – except when the cat sits on top of it! 

This cat saw a family he wanted, and he went for it. This cat was snooping around the family since before Christmas. They took him in, TNR'd him, and to their surprise he came back. He wandered around looking for their attention, and on Christmas day they finally took him in. Now that he's a steady member of their home, they decided to buy him lots of toys. Seeing him playing around with catnip, stuffed animals, and even robot cleaners. It's heartwarming to see that the cat got his furrever home.

    It's been a struggle with George and our other male cat (basil). He's not the biggest fan of other cats and it might take him awhile

    He is on a diet now because he's gained another pound in the past month and is definitely getting chonky lol. So he definitely isn't one that can free feed.
