I wasn’t living in my own space yet, and where I was, I wasn’t allowed cats. Her fur was matted because she wouldn’t let the groomers near her.īut I didn’t have a place for her.
She was cranky, she was anti-social, hanging out at the back of her cage. I first saw her in a little cage at the Petco I frequent (I used to take my parents’ dog in for puppy play time), and she looked like the grouchiest, old, crotchety cat in the world, and I fell instantly in love. Trust me, next time you are in the market for a new kitty, just go over to that one cat that’s missing an eye and see what he’s all about! They still purr, they still love a warm lap, they still play, they still love you.
Choose the pet that you fall in love with, but at least give all of them a fair shot at winning your heart.ĭon’t dismiss them, they deserve a loving home just as much as any other cat. And those 10% that would get an adult cat often overlook “different” animals.Īll I want people to do is be open to the idea of having a “different” pet in their lives. 9 out of 10 people will choose a kitten over an adult cat. I get it, but less-adoptable does NOT mean less loveable. Many people have the initial instinct of “nope” when they see an imperfect animal. That cat was that close to having a family that loved him, but the missing leg held him back. The father straight up said “absolutely not”. The daughter fell in love with a 3-legged cat. This is something that is extremely important to me, and I appreciate it if you read it.Ī while ago, I heard a story that broke my heart. This was meant to be a quick warm up, but it turned into a comic that I’ve wanted to draw for a while.
