Grandmother crosses the rainbow bridge and wished only for her cat Sanji to have a furrever home when she's gone, her grandson adopts him to keep her memory alive: 'Everything happens for a reason'

There's a light at the end of the tunnel, and it lies in this grandson adopting his grandmother's cat. 

He's 50% fluff, and 100% adorable. This guy lost his grandmother on December 1st. She got this cat after her husband crossed the rainbow bridge for an emotional support pet. She grew so fond of him and the cat really helped the grandmother get through the loss of her husband without feeling alone in her day to day routine. Cats can be so incredible about filling the void when we go through something. Before she crossed the rainbow bridge, she asked her daughter to promise her that she would take him in if anything happened to her. Sanji, her cat, was brought in from the animal shelter, and she didn't want him to end back there or feel rejected or end up in an unloving family. Her daughter promised, but unfortunately it didn't work out. Her own cat didn't like that Sanji came. And so the protagonist wanted to take Sanji but he also had two cats already, Arthur and Marcel. 

Then, Arthur also crossed the rainbow bridge. Now that he only has his one cat Marcel, he felt it's the right time to take Sanji, not only for himself but for his grieving cat. Marcel and Sanji hit it off immediately – they play together, run around everywhere. And Sanji turned out to be similar to Arthur, and it was all a purrfect fit. He didn't expect to have a second cat so quickly, but it's heartwarming that he could take the cat in and help his family and his grandmother's wishes. He truly believes everything happens for a reason, and at I Can Has Cheeezburger, we agree with him in this story.
