Sometimes people will be gifted a cat by the Cat Distribution System, but their sense of responsibility stands in the way of them seeing it. Which is exactly what happened in this story, however before it was too late this pawrent finally smartened up enough to realize that the kitten was destined to be theirs all along


We cannot entirely blame this pawrent for not seeing the obvious truth laid out in front of them. After all, it can be quite the headspinning event to come across a seemingly abandoned kitten. There is a lot to do both to ensure the safety and wellbeing of the kitten as well as your home and many pawrents get wrapped up in that process without noticing all the signs screaming at them that the kitten is destined to be their own cat child.

If the pawrent is aware enough they manage to stop themselves before surrendering the cat to a shelter and realize that even if their life and home are somewhat imperfect, they are perfect for the kitten who has been gifted to them. Thankfully, this is one of those stories where the pawrent realizes the reality and the pair of them get to live their happily ever after.

  • Ah it is so funny to see pawrents who are so timid, or so blinded by the beauty of the kitten before them that they completely ignore the fact that they have been blessed by the Cat Distribution System. Just look at how frantic this pawrent is,when they really ought to just be calm and without concern because the CDS never gives a pawrent more than they can handle. Sure it is wonderful that they are pulling out all the stops to make sure this kitten gets the best start to life with them, but they really needn't worry so much.

  • Well, of course nobody claimed it, the CDS gifted it to you! Now we are not going to disparage the responsible approach that this pawrent has taken. After all, it is important to be certain that you are not going to be causing others distress or harm by keeping a cat in your care. But truthfully there are situations where it is obvious, and it becomes increasingly obvious over time that the cat has been sent to you. So you ought to try to enjoy the process of falling in love with the cute creature rather than worrying about other things.
