Senior animals tend to be the least likely to get adopted. It is a hard choice, because that means you won't get to have your pet in your life as long as you'd like. But senior animals need a loving home, especially during their later years. So, when this couple came across a senior cat all alone at a Petco, they couldn't just leave her there. 

 

Mallie the 10-year-old cat was surrendered by a married couple who were expecting a baby and couldn't care for the kitty anymore. Mallie's new parents were at Petco to pick up kitty litter for their already bustling cat household of 4 other cats. They decided on a whim to just swing by the cat adoption section and play with some kitties before heading back home. But after seeing Mallie, it was love at first site. Looking into the eyes of this sweet and shy senior kitty just melted the heart of these two women, and they just couldn't leave her behind. They adopted her right then and there.
