You might have thought that the Cat Distribution System does not accept requests, but after reading this story you might find yourself writing intent-filled notes to the CDS in hopes of a delivery.

Ok, well maybe writing the CDS a note is a little too exaggerated, but the point still stands that more often than not, a pawrent is simply delivered a kitty, not of their choosing. It is a get what you need, rather than a get what you want type situation with the CDS. but in this story we are delighted to find a cat lover receiving the exact kitten they had always wanted, quite the departure from the usual story and wholesome one at that.

So if you had always hoped that cat wishes and dreams will come true for you, you will want to spend some time trying to figure out what this hooman has done in their life to deserve such a glorious gift as the tortoiseshell kitten the CDS brought them. If we had to guess we might put it down to good karma, but who is to say.

You know this is a rather amusing one when you look at it. First off there are several cultures that actually consider the number 13 to be lucky. And second of all dark colored cats were considered to be unlucky only because of their made up connection to witches. So in actual fact you have two completely wrong facts here which are not only wrong but hold truth in their opposition. Proving that this person has become one of the luckiest cat pawrents out there.

We often remark on how the Cat Distribution System works in mysterious ways, and it must be said that is one of the more mysterious ways in which we have seen it work its magic. Usually, the pawrents that it chooses are unaware of their incoming cat child and are simply delighted to accept whatever cat the CDS has for them and in any sort of condition. But here we have someone who did not have to do anything tough or trying to get their cat, and it turned out to be the cat of their dreams. Magic is real people.
