‘Well, I’ll say I didn’t plan for this’: Two 15-year-old Maine Coon cat sisters tragically lose their human, but rather than let them waste away in a shelter, this kind person swoops in and adopts them both

There are some people out there (mysterious people that we don’t think we have ever heard of in real lif) that actually plan out adopting a cat. They think about which cat they want, how they’re going to financially take care of it, the age of the cat, the look of the cat… We have been informed that this happens, even thought we have yet to see it ourselves. What happens more often is that some day, some random day (or night), we get chosen by our cats, and not the other way around. 

And sometimes, we get chosen by two. Bonded pairs of cats are not to be separated. They are family to each other, the same way that they are family to us. And Rose and Blanche were not only metaphorically but literally family. They’re sisters, and unfortunately, their elderly owner passed away before they did, leaving them without a home. But the CDS (the cat distribution system ^TM) had a plan, and almost immediately, it hooked them up with their new human and home, where they are going to live out their happy and spoiled retirement.
