Sweet cat adopts grumpy old man neighbor by wiggling her way into his heart, he falls in love despite his loud protests: ‘I’m not a pet person’

It’s Furiday, feline fam! We’re sharing a classic story for you to walk into the weekend with a smile on your faces.  It’s a tale as old as time, a song as old as rhyme: the beauty and the beast. Except in this case, the beauty is a sweet tortoiseshell cat and the beast is a grumpy old man who, like any grumpy old man, does not like pets. 

His neighbor had 27, yes, you read that correctly, 27 cats and was trying to rehome them. However, this cute cat took matters into her own paws and wiggled her way into this hooman’s heart. Cats have a way of doing that, right? You just can’t resist them (we can’t, at least), and tortoiseshell cats are especially good at charming an unsuspecting hooman. Despite all of his protests, he fell in love anyway. Dads and cats never stand a chance. It seems like the harder they resist, the more they fall in love.
