Stray cat has made himself at home. He doesn't even try to run outside anymore.
Cat PictureThey must be a very happy family
His Smily face means they are happy family.
he found his home! ❤️
He is feeling so much comfortable his home.
Our cats are identical! This is Valorie, she was also a stray. I honestly thought this was her at first and I was like wait… I didn’t post her and she runs from the camera 😂
Gorgeous!
What did you name your gift from the CDS?
His name is Shorty. He's always looked like his tail was unusually short. So I'm obviously super creative name wise and named him Shorty after his tail lol.
LOVE LOVE LOVE.
I love the tummy "I'm secure but you may or may not touch me and you'll never know which is which" pose
Your boy picked you! Congratulations!! Love it!!
Reminds me of my cat. She has RBF, but is the sweetest cat.
Omg mine also has severe RBF! She is still very skittish but my husbands presence makes her melt so it makes up for her!
And here’s the stray that adopted me!
IM NOT EVEN JOKING WE HAVE THE SAME CAT!
Omg I cannot right now!! Making me want another kitten
The cat factory got their money's worth with this model.
Ha!! (And makes my mind think of such cute things!!) “Cat factory” LOL…
That’s a cute ass cat
I had the same reaction!
He's not a stray. He is your cat.
Congratulations on being chosen.
Hopefully. Has the OP checked for a chip?
And you're in his house.
He has officially adopted You Congrats !!
I'm also a stray owner. Once he got comfortable, he became such a lovable cat. He can't get enough of us.
Meet Coco.
Are we showing our little gray strays who never left? Pumpkin says meowdy.
They look related lol so adorable.
They really do!!! And they both look like littermates to OPs cat too. Big extended family lol
i love his expression
Omg do you know what your cats breed is? My cat looked just like him but I never knew
This is Felix. She showed up pregnant! She was so cool that I had to keep her and a son!
Raiden (The Son) 😼
he's not a stray, he's clearly in his house - you're lucky he tolerates having you stay there as his live-in servant
Outside = no food, no litter box, no cuddles.s
Stay inside, kitty!
I wish my cat would realize this
Little dude darts for the door and tries to open the screen door
It’s the cat distribution system
My inside cats wish the distribution system would stop choosing me.
You cannot tell the system how to do their job. You can only just accept your fate.
Fuckin’ way she goes.
u were chosen, rejoice.
That's a good cat :7942:
Look how comfy he is!
My cat was found wandering around the university where I work.
Once he was taken into the HVAC shop, he refused to go outside again.
And once he got into my house, he avoids the front door like it is the gates of hell.
We had the balcony door open for the first time and he went out for a HOT SECOND! He was meowing and immediately came back in for cuddles.
Tater is an inside cat.
He seemed to miss being outside a little so I just opened the window in my living room and he sits on the windowsill and stares out the window screen and enjoys the smells from outside. He's pretty happy with that. Now he doesn't even pretend he wants to go back outside.
You have been chosen
My cat does the same thing.
Absolutely beautiful 🐾❤️☮️
What's the context? Because I been feeding couple of strays for months and they don't even let me near them
Personality of individual cats. I used to take care of a small group of cats. They all could clearly see that I was their benefactor who supplied their needs. Nevertheless some remained feral and eyed me warily while the others truly bonded with me and allowed me to pet them.
It also depends on humans, especially how they interact with strays. In my area cats are pretty chill with people bc they are constantly pet, fed etc. I almost step on them and they couldn't care less.
We had to really work with him when he was outside. And it helped that he's been around since he was born. When we fed him outside we would always sit near him and talk to him.
That's good to hear, I guess the ones I'm feeding are more feral
Yeah we have some that we can't get close to at all. Before we were able to catch one of the females and have her spayed, she had four kittens. One of them we were able to make really tame and found her a home. One will come close to us and let us sort of touch it. But the other two won't come near at all. So it can just depend on the cat's different personality.
Stray versus feral where I’m from. Strays are former house pets that have become unhoused. Ferals are wild animals that scavenge for food but don’t have experience with humans.
I currently have my two cats because a pair of dumped / feral kittens included a very friendly weirdo who despite being only 2-3 months old decided I was safe enough to hang out with. Fed them for another few months, and decided to bring them in after they started darting in every chance they got. Now they don't get to leave and don't really want to, either.
Some cats are just built friendly. My girls wouldn't have been adopted if my little Odie hadn't decided to go all in on her gamble -- and her sister got to ride her coattails.
We got the same model. Solid performance. Fiend for grass. Likes to scream hello.
Mine makes a "mmmrrrr" noise every time he goes to drink water.
Good cat
Looks like you now have a new furry family member!
Please, do not call him "stray"anymore. He/she will get offended. So now, just pour some water and snacks for the new found god.
What a sweetie. Looks like my Willow
This belongs in r/notmycat
More like r/nowmycat.
I didn’t know such a sub existed, nice
Reddit laws, my friend.
- Rule 1: If it exists, there is a sub of it.
- Rule 2: If a sub exists, there is a cat version of that sub.
- Rule 34
Then when I saw Rule 1 I just knew you had to end it at number 34.
Aww what a cozy lil kitty 😊
He knows a cat person and a cosy set up when he sees it :7942:
Hey look, they’re twins.
Congrats! You've been adopted! Cat distribution system cycles again!
I see the cat distribution network is working fine!
My name must be on the list multiple times. My other cats came from the system too.
My next door neighbour is the exact same, it’s quite funny tbh, she’s got about 4 strays that moved in at different times
My husband has to be the voice of reason with me or I would just have so many cats.
Lol
....and the Cat Distribution System marks this case closed.
I didn’t know the Cat Distribution Center (C.D.C.) just copy pasted??? They sure are getting lazy. Congrats on a new cuddly loving cat
They must've decided they liked this model of cat and are just sticking with it.
“If it ain’t broke don’t fix it”
You feed them and they go: I am home! The Universal Cat Distribution System in action! Time to go to the Vet, make sure it's not chipped.
He's not chipped. He's been around our house since he was born. His mom was a feral cat we trapped and had spayed.
Ahh so cute! 🥰
These are stray cats in our neighborhood. They come in our garage when they see it open.
We named them Cutie and Whitey.
Super cute!
He looks like my Posey!
Awww what a cute little noodle
Look at that adorable face! He has found his Furever Home ❤️
Congrats! The house is now under his name lol
Whoo you call ‘stray’? 😜
aww now u have a new family member 🤍
Because being safe inside with you is where he finally belongs. 🥹❤️
Congratulations you are now proudly owned by a cat.
That's one handsome cat
He is a stray no longer!
What a beautiful silver tabby. Why would he go outside, when he can live a life of domesticated bliss?
What do you mean stray? You mean ex stray, your new cat?
He's adorable
What “stray cat”?
If I didn’t know any better I’d say that was a photo of my cat a year or two ago.
Thought this was my cat for a second lol.
You have been bless by the cat god
There is no stray cat in that photo 😽
He looks very comfortable, happy and in love. The CDS has done it again ❣️
That's because he's no longer a stray cat. He's your cat. Congratulations! The Cat Distribution System has rewarded you.
Your the chosen one!
pretty kitty.
That's how I got my Skerrick🥰 Not as plump as he used to be, but still as cuddly.
what the fuck. did my cat run away?
This boy walked in my house with a bloody face and never walked outside again. He does run into windows when birds fly by.
You have been chosen by the cat distribution system. Start a chewy account and set that auto delivery now.
he looks like my boys 🩶
Aww one of yours has a fluffy tail! I named mine Shorty because his tail is actually shorter than normal. Not like a bob tail, it's just like it's missing the tip.
He looks like my Mimi
He’s precious.
The stray to bed thief pipeline.
What’s his name?
That’s bullshit that’s my cat!
He still can't believe his luck.😋
Update: it is not a stray anymore and you are not catless.
He found you and he picked you to be his family.This is awesome and your new cat is so adorable.
He looks like my old cat! Such a cutie
the free car dealership system strikes again
Showing the belly! He’s claimed you 🙂
Same!
He's adorable. Please keep him. Maybe have a vet do a full check up
Oh I'm definitely keeping him. He's got a good bill of health with the vet.
Beautiful! Schedule vet appointment for spay or neuter & vaccinations please.
He's had all of that. We actually trapped him as part of a TNR program a couple years ago and got him fixed. We just finally convinced him to come inside and stay.
Safe and fed, finally!
That’s exactly how my Toby found me!
Have a vet check to see if they've got a chip, they may be someone else's cat.
If that doesn't turn anything up, put out a couple of posters, or post on your local social media about lost cats.
If none of that works, take them to the vet, get them spayed/neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, etc.
He's a stray. He's part of a feral colony my husband and I trap and get fixed. He's been around since he was born. It just took a long time to convince him to come inside and stay.
Congrats on your new cat!
Question so ik its good to be a nice person n all n dont get me wrong i love animals byt if y been looking out for a steay n they make themselves at home I noticed people say take them to the vet…is the bill going to come to you even though the animal isnt yours
Congratulations you have been adopted! Do not resist.
I would search for the owner, then make a vet appointment. The universe has spoken.
He doesn't have an owner. He's been a stray around my house since he was born. He was one of the cats we trapped and had fixed. He just finally got friendly enough for me to coax him inside.
ughhhh so precious
This made me emotional
Reminds me of my uncle’s cat! They KNOW what they’re doing and are purposely being cute. Congratulations on the new addition to your family 😂
"Why would I go anywhere else? I got all I need here."
Oh, that is sooo your baby! Look at those “I love you” eyes. Congratulations!
I don’t know how I can be a part of the CDS at some point in my life but can only hope it happens. Take care of your cat!
Ex-Stray cat* You have been chosen!
Congrats on being selected in the cat adoption system
I don’t see a problem here. 😊he’s so handsome. Congrats on your new baby!
Consider this cat un-strayed. :)
Keep him
Oh I am. He's mine now for sure.
Man...I'm so jealous of people like you who are "the chosen ones" who end up getting adopted by a cat lol He chose you!
He looks super sweet. He's gorgeous too!
This is great. Cats go through a lot of danger when they're outside. I used to live in a hillbilly dystopian neighborhood where most of my neighbors were the types that poison street cats to stop the noise. Always saw dead cats in the streets. People are evil. This little guy is much safer indoors.
What a gorgeous kitteh! Love his coloring.
Car delivery system at work.
You’re cat-approved
What a gorgeous kitty
Doesn’t look like a stray to me :7984:
Adorable
Your cat was not a stray. You were the stray human that happened to live in his home! Now bow down to your new feline overlord! 😹
Congrats to both of you!!
Ex Stray, now your cat
Cuteness overload 🤍🥰
Dass an angel baby
our cats could be twins!
Look at those eyes!! He looks so safe and happy!! Just adorable!
I'd stay in too! Warm place to sleep. Plenty of food. No predirors or rivals. Finally feeling clean! :7962::8097:
Congratulations! 🥳 the CDS (Cat Distribution System) finally got you adopted by this sleek, handsome fur babe 😹
I think that's a hint he wants to stay
the cat distribution system strikes again!
bless and bless you for giving him a home, so rewarding to bring in a stray
He is adorable. Finally found his home. congrats
As long as there spayed/neutered they won’t want to go outside again 🤣❤️
Who are you calling a stray, that's the man of the house.
Welcome home.
All three of mine wouldn’t go back outside if you paid them
He is gorgeous, such a cute face 🥰
You have a beautiful new loving family member!! Congratulations!! ❤️
You have been chosen.
sassy boy! <3
Cat distribution system working perfectly.
Extremely handsome
He's made you his new owner now by decree of cat :]
Ahhhh. Another cat distribution success story.
If that isn't one of the cutest cats I've ever seen. Look at that lil fella
Awwh cute little guy
lol
You’ve been chosen and blessed. It’s a great honor now live up to his expectations. You won’t regret it.
Looks just like my late fur baby. Hug him tightly ❤️🩹
I wish the cat distribution chose me this way. I always keep treats in the car in case I see any strays wanting food but it just doesn’t happen for me 😭
congratz, such a cutie too!
he knew were home was
