Caring person saves skinny stray cat only to be turned away by every local shelter, until one wholesome hero steps up to give her a furrever home: 'I went from bawling my eyes out... to smiling again'

You would be surprised how much politics play a role in animal adoption. You would think that animal shelters would take any animal that needs help, but that's where you'd be wrong. We once read a story of a purrson who rescued a puppy who was just outside of the shelter's "jurisdiction", and even though they had space, they refused to take the poor pupper based on a technicality.

The reality is, though, that most shelters are already overrun or over capacity. They simply can't keep up with the number of stray animals, and there isn't enough demand to adopt them since many people like to buy pets.

That's where this story starts - a caring purrson saved a skinny stray cat from their work, and after deciding that they couldn't keep them for themselves, they approached local shelters to take the sweet baby girl in. However, she was refused from every shelter because of overcrowding. She didn't want to release the cat back outside (especially with this terrible winter weather), and just when she lost all hope, a wholesome hero stepped forward to pawsitively save the day. The hooman not only works at an animal shelter, but was willing to foster her until they found her a furrever family. It's a Christmas meowracle! Read more of their story below, and stay warm out there.

You know this person is a cat purrson because they specifically took a picture of the toe beans to share with us. They know how much we yearn for the beans. No one else would understand, except someone who understands the pure purrfection that are cats' toe beans.

This is why we love cat people - they will do anything and everything to help a cat in need. This purrson doesn't even live in the same city, and yet, they're willing to find a way there to give the fur baby a furrever home. It's truly heartwarming.
