When you give to cats, the Cat Distribution System gives back to you, in cats. At least that is the take away from this sweet cat adoption story.

It is not often that we get a glimpse into the wider lives of the pawrents who the Cat Distribution System chooses. Largely because their stories tend to center around the cats they save and are gifted. But in this story we come to learn that there is a good chance that the CDS operates on a donation basis. Meaning the more you give to cats, be it food, shelter, pets, etc, the more willing the CDS is to give you a cat if you should express such an interest.

Which is exactly what happened when this couple who care for several stray cats expressed their interest in taking on another cat child at home. Within a matter of hours the CDS sprung into action and delivered the most purrfect feline they could have ever imagined. It seems that what goes around, comes around.

And there you have it. When the CDS hears something like that from a couple of people who have devoted a decent part of their lives to the caring of cats, you know it is going to act. And apparently, not only did the CDS decide it was time to act upon their request, but in keeping with the movie theme, the CDS decided that it would seek out the most movie looking cat in need of a home that it could find. And as you are soon going to find out, the CDS came through with one of the most pawfect cats for a film buff to become pawrent to.

Yes, the CDS darn well had struck. Just both us and this pawrent to be knew it would. There is almost nothing you can do about it. Even if this pawrent had decided to take the cat to the shelter, the CDS would have found a way to bust the cat out of there and bring him back to the home he was destined to be in. The only difference would be that they would have wasted time and gas to do their silly little loop. And here they are a year after the fact, we are so jealous of these CDS recipients. It would be so lovely to be chosen by such a wise system and have a cat delivered to our home.
