‘She was never a “bad cat”, she just had a lot of trauma to overcome.’: Caring couple adopt the shy and skittish abandoned cat momma that no one wanted after 6 long months at the shelter and some seriously scary scars from her past

This is one of those stories that pretty much embody the spirit of going to your local shelter to adopt a cute cat child to illuminate your life. Often people think that going to the shelter is all about finding your soul cat, the feline who locks eyes with you from across the room and draws you in with their tiny meow.

But the truth is that the shelter is a dark and desperate place, a place that cattos deserve to get out off as soon as possible which is why what this couple have done is so important. Instead of searching for a feline who would warm their soul, they sought out the poor catto who had been there the longest. And you know what happened? They were just as fulfilled and just as happy with the handsome catto they ended up coming home with. So go save a soul, but a soul that actually needs saving.

Oh goodness, just so so much no. we cannot bare to think about the sadness, the misery that is involved in being used for your offspring, for you to then be dumped at the shelter for half a year. It is abhorrent, but thankfully this would be the end of this sweetheart’s suffering.

The time, dedication and perseverance that is required to coax a kitty out of their shell is simply astounding. And for an especially traumatized kitty such as Jodie, the amount of those qualities that are needed to help her heal must be unfathomable. But she is a catto who deserves to be invested in after a life time of being taken from.
