When a neighbor hands you two soaking wet kittens to save, you know they came straight from the CDS.

Cat people like us - we know about the CDS. Some people who get handed a cat by the universe don't know why it is happening to them. They see it as weird, as unique, as something that only they could ever experience. We, of course, know that this is false. It's not "the universe". It's the CDS. And the CDS works in meowsterious ways. That is why I have - thus far - only been chosen once. It's why my husband has only been chosen once so far. We're waiting for it to happen again, but we know that it is not up to us. The CDS will give us our next cat when it is ready. And we will be ready for it. In fact, we are always ready. And when the CDS finally calls our name, we will know it. It will not catch us by surprise.

The person in today's story, she was ready too. She knew about the CDS for the longest, and she didn't try to push it. She knew that it would come to her when the time was right. And right when she was having the worst month of her life, a neighbor came knocking on her door with not one, but with two kittens rescued from the rain. The neighbor couldn't take care of them, but they knew the one person who would. And she knew that these two soaking-wet kittens in need of help were sent to her straight from the CDS. So, she did not fight it. Not for one second.

The CDS always finds us at the right time. It might not be the purrfect time, but it is always right. It knows, somehow, not only when we are ready for it but when we need it - when we need a cat in our lives. And adopting that cat - or the two kittens in this case - is always the best thing in the world.
