Abandoned Cat Was Antisocial Until A Tiny Kitten Forced Him To Play With Her | The Dodo Cat Crazy

- Phoenix was left behind by his owners in their old apartment building where he spent a year before being rescued. When his foster moms took him in, he was so shut down, he didn't want to interact with them or the other cats. But one day, a tiny kitten decided she was going to get him to play with him and the most wonderful thing happened.
To adopt Phoenix and Ruby, follow Cats of San Bernardino on Facebook: thedo.do/catssanbernardino, and Instagram: thedo.do/catsofsanbernardino.

Dude you took my hand
I am a grown man, father of three, and here I am, tears in my eyes watching this older cat's life turned around by a sweet little kitten. Amazing! Thank you for the video.
It´s the circle of liiiiiiiife... and it mooooves us aaaaaall.... ;D

well, your not the only one :)
The same thing happened with a dachshund (Winnie) my family had. She was old and sick. The vet said she had 6 or months. My mom got a Chihuahua and all the sudden Winnie came back to life. Running around playing by herself with us and with the Chihuahua. She lived 4 more years.
Sweet! Thanks for sharing! :)
love solves every problem:)
🥰😍😍😍
So happy to hear this great news!
No wonder Jesus said " ...but the greatest of these is love."
_Why nobody is talking about how beautiful his eyes are?_
I think it is a Turkish Van Cat, most of them have heterochima (different coloured eyes) if they are purebred, they are also amazing swimmers and love water :)
@@itsbelizbish thank you, I didn’t know that most of them have heterochromia (I thought that it’s rare for a cat to have it)😁
@@user-db3hm4dv3g no worries, they're pretty rare as it's now illegal to breed them to sell in Turkey (in pet stores etc. as they are highly sought after both locally and internationally) but you're still allowed to adopt them. However, the breed is sadly declining in numbers so some organisations have begun trying to repopulate them and there has even been a Van cat for every household campaign in Turkey too :D
I have a giant white cat who is also heterochromic like this guy. She was so malnourished walking around in Detroit that she only developed one ovary. She’s a brat though💙
@@itsbelizbish I found a van in 2019 and I found out from a pizza guy what breed it was and I can confirm they like water. Mine loves to mess with it when I use the sink
How introverts make friends?
- Extrovert adopts them
This is that
It really is, I'm someone who's extremely introverted and I was alone and sad for a while in school. I pretended like I didn't need many friends and like I was indifferent.
But then in 7th grade I met one of the most important people in my life, her name is Jaylin and she's extremely extroverted.
She's loud and noisy, and always hyper. She's confident and is super caring and sweet.
Those who knew me in school before she came along, as well as myself, were shocked at how different i became when she showed up.
I opened up, and was playful. I found a side of me I forgot was there, much like Phoenix.
Jaylin really changed me for the better, and I am not sure where I'd be without her.
She moved sadly, and it was really hard on me and I most definitely cried, but luckily we still keep in contact.
As much as we pretend that we don't care too much, us introverts need our extroverted friends.
They can really make a difference in our life.
@@rustedoak5953 Yes you're right. Because humans are naturally social ppl. Humans cannot live on their own. They need social links. It's mandotary for their well-being
It's the law
I can attest.
Exactly the situation when I met my best friends in primary school
He's a cat version of a father who's like "no pets in my house" but when his family finally gets one they end up being best friends :D
I'm literally crying. I'm an older man. These two cats melted my heart.
Yikes
McClain . Why so angry ? I think you need a little buddy .
If someone is sharing how beautiful this video was to watch and how it made him feel, you strike back as if that sweet older man was attacking you . I am sorry something in your life has made you feel this way .

Not everyone realizes that cats can get depressed too. Especially strays that have been left behind - it's a devastating experience for them. It's amazing to see Phoenix's emotional transition (truly a fitting name for him). It seems that having a baby to take care of gave him a sense of purpose and a source of joy.
Phoenix is like Dad's that say they hate cats and then go out and build them beds, towers and furniture litter boxes LOL
Except the dad is a cat too
My kids say I'm that Dad.

That poor baby, he looks so bad-scars from
fights and all scratched up. He is shut down
emotionally because he has been through so much. No food, no care and no kindness for
a long time. Thank you for taking him in and
the little ones, too. These homeless kitties
don’t deserve the callous way they have been
treated. Bless you🙏🏻🐈
I'm trying to get a stray boy in my house right now. I named him "Tony" because he's black and white. He was getting into fights with this other guy I named "Randy" early on, but Randy quit when I chased him away (he was hurting Tony so badly). Tony was basically feral when he started to come around my apartment complex. Now he is totally fine with people being around him. I'm working on getting him permanently into my house. I put him on a schedule - 7:45am - time for delicious Fancy Feast, 10:45am - Daddy comes outside (I work at home) and gives him love, 5:30pm he walks with me to the apartment dumpster to throw away my daughter's poopy and pee. And then roughly 8pm he comes inside the apartment for a playdate with my daughter. It's been going great. They do a proper greeting and then my daughter either hangs around or views him from a chair to see what he's doing. He loves cardboard scratchers. He thinks my daughter, Missy, is the coolest cat alive. I just need to get him fixed and bathed (he is soooo dirty and mostly white sigh.)
"By God, if you are going to annoy me, you will be clean while doing so."
XDD

How lucky they both are!
Poor guy was clearly in mourning. I'm glad phoenix and ruby found each other. That brought out the kitten in him.
rip big man :( he made many kittens feel safe and loved and I'm so happy he found purpose in his old age.
for those who dont follow the CoSB insta, Phoenix and Ruby kinda grew apart but he became a permanent CoSB cat and helped rehabilitate and comfort sick and recovering kittens. He passed a few months ago but his impact was huge.
No....
The update i did not not need . Thanks for ruining my day
Sad to hear he's gone but it was nice to know that he had lots of kittens around him for the rest of his life.
I'm glad he was safe and had a purpose and people for the rest of his life. He left the earth loved, not abandoned. Thank you for the work you do.

He was afraid to show affection since he'd been abandoned by the people who he thought loved him. He must have loved them very much. They broke his heart and spirit. God bless the tiny kitten he fell in love with! ❤️🤗🙏
Phoenix finished his life as a resident cat for this rescue. Ruby helped him rebuilt his jjoy of life but the relationship didn't really last as she got older. They wound up just kinda being cats together, and Phoenix opened up to the rescue's steady through traffic of kittens and became a senior mentor. Unfortunately he passed away of cancer after a good long rich life. Such is the way of cats. He had some happiness and died loved. We should all hope to be so lucky.
Cats are so human, I love them so much.
He had lost everything and didn’t want anything to do with anyone, he was depressed until a little spark came into his life, ruby, she was filled with life and energy and really turned his life around, he finally had someone to care about and he felt happy again.

Ruby: "I am gonna be your friend no matter what!"
Phoenix: "Aww, I can't stay mad at this little bundle of joy! I'm your papa now!"
That is the sweetest thing I've seen in a while. Several years ago, I found a cold little kitten huddling on the corner of a dangerous road and brought her home, where she immediately turned into little ninja kitty with people. She trusted our other two cats before she trusted us. I still have her, she's about 13 now
Ruby: hi we're gonna be friends :)
Phoenix: no thank you

This crew, Cats of San Bernardino, are some straight up heroes. They help the most severe cases and give these thrown away kitties a shot at love. Love these ladies and what they do ❤
Thank goodness you were able to see how devastated Phoenix was, to have someone he loved abandon him. Then happy little Ruby told him, didn't ask if it was okay, just told him they were going to belong to each other. You had the sensitivity to see Phoenix can't handle another abandonment and you're adopting them as a bonded pair, which they truly are. I dont think I can adopt them but I would run to do it if I could. I pray God always blesses them and you.
Ruby got mauled and torn apart by loose pitbulls. It's sad because they had to put the old guy down as he stopped eating.
don't believe WildHorse Way, they have given different stories about the kitten to different users, so probably just here to make people upset.
Strong, silent protagonist with white hair, different coloured eyes and a tragic past, is made to rediscover the beauty in life by a young energetic newcomer barging in, showing him friendship and mending his broken heart...

That little Ruby is so adorable! I'm so happy to see Phoenix a happy cat. I can't imagine how animals deal and think about the hardships some of the experience in their lives. They have no alternative but to suffer until a kind human takes care of their needs.
This is the first cat in any video I saw that I truly believed was depressed. I have never seen such a sad cat.
He must have experienced really terrible things.
I am glad he found a new friend and purpose. His instincts of bathing and teaching the baby cat helped him to start healing.
I hope they find a family that is as loving and caring as his rescuers.
All I can say is that Pheonix's eyes are very pretty
@@anythinganeverythingclips Spamer
Agreed.
My big white cat Casey had a blue and yellow eye like that. He was a cuddly love bug.

@@MeganKoumori he was probably a Khao Manee like Phoenix, they are a breed from south east asia that were considered Royal cats, and could only be owned by special people, but as more western influence came in they were exported to the rest of the world. They mostly have the two colour eyes and are quite expensive to buy from a breeder.

Love them. ❤️
Remember, a cat is not a dog. Chilling in the same room with you is socialising for many cats. He’s not under a sofa spraying urine. See the animal you have in front of you, not necessarily the one you want him to be.
It’s adorable how he was like “I hate other cats, I hate everything always and forever” and then he saw ruby and was just like “oh yeah this ones mine”
He is like that grumpy old man who seems to hate everyone but change when a kid start talk to him and treat him nicely.

He needed a "reason" to live. Yes, he ate because he was hungry, but other than that, he had pretty much given up on life in general. The kitten won him over, he felt needed once more by his own kind. The old ways came back to him, and the kitten in return responded and brought out the real kitty he once had been. I had an older tom cat like this. He didn't care for other cats, but he would take a kitten and shower it with love.
You sir, made me cry.
literally this.
people often imprint human emotions or behaviours on animals, but there's no doubt here. phoenix had lost his previous life and shut down. He was glad to find inside comfort and food, but that was it, just comfort.
the little kitten made all the rest of his personality come back. really a beautiful thing.
@John Ellis yes, that's the term.
Like I say though, here, maybe on more simplistic terms, some comparison seems to fit. In my eyes anyway...

The stereotype description of an “grumpy old man” doesn’t seem fair! Many older people have had painful loss and trauma.
The same with older animals, like Phoenix! He wasn’t grumpy, just sad and depressed!
I wished some younger folks weren’t so judgmental when relating to older people and animals!

Dodo always has the best stories. No bullshit and most importantly, organic stories. Much love
I knooowww🥺😎
Just a bit unrealistic sometimes... I don't mean the stories per se, but that they only show success stories... It taints the picture. I didn't want to click this at first because it reminded me of how we thought that our cat called Mori (Mo-ree) who had previously lost his brother needed a new companion. We introduced them carefully of course, but the little one called Skotti (Scot-ee) had so much energy and always jumped Mori. Mori had had a strange disease, probably a nerve inflammation, and after the inflammation was gone he still had pain in his back sometimes. Mori wasn't playful and ignored Skotti, so Skotti quickly figured out that the only way to make Mori move was to jump his back, which must have caused Mori lots of pain. It was hell for Mori, and the only way for him to get rest was when I locked him in my room, which he appreciated, but that wasn't sustainable of course. Well, at some point, it was probably too much, and Mori disappeared without leaving a trace to never be seen again.... :(
We got Skotti a new kitten, just a few weeks younger than he was, and after a few days of hissing he finally had someone to run around with and they loved each other for a while until Skotti, who dislikes close contact with other animals (so Simba and our dog), became more aggressive during play for some reason. It's a pity, especially because Simba just loves close contact with both humans and animals, but he can only cuddle with our dog (and us obviously), although she usually doesn't tolerate it for long. Nowadays, the cats are both 4 years old (Skotti will turn 5 on Christmas Eve), and they get along more or less, although they're very good at social distancing. They usually keep their distance and you can see that they're scared to get close often because it will result in a short fight/rough play, even though it looks like that's 100% Skotti's fault.
I wonder if it's indirectly our fault that they don't get along anymore.
Ikr, they show how to love and support animals through positivity! Unlike some other organization I know...
@@solar0wind awww, it's ok. I have the same problem too, our two shih tzus are always fighting with each other no matter what.
We always have to separate them which results in the smaller one being constantly hidden or isolated (our larger one is more aggressive). We also wonder if we had raised our dogs properly. One is aggressive and antisocial, the other is scared and can barely take care of herself and act like a dog.
I think we need these kinds of positive videos to show that even if we may have failed our pets, it gives us hope that other pets are not being raised that way.
Not saying that we were wrong and horrible for raising them incorrectly, but as long as they are still willing to love us, I think they'll be alright.
@@solar0wind also happy early fifth bday to Skotti!
This hits hard, one of my boy's was called Phoenix and he was absolutely fantastic and a proper Daddy's boy. Pleased he found a happy home and people/kitties to love

The two-colored eyes are so cool.
Phoenix looks like he's seen it all and disapproved of most of it.
my calico has that look down to an art. i was trying to convince her not-a-kitten that scritches could happen inside too while he's on my deck railing, i turned to look inside at her and she's sitting on my end table like it's her throne and the only thing in her eyes was YOU BOTH FAIL LIFE. it was hilarious.
I know that feeling!
It's horrendous for an animal to be left behind, either by the owner's death or abandonment. I took in 6 strays a few years back. Their temperament changed so much. I had been feeding them outside for a while but had an indoor cat, Sammy, who they didn't get along with. Sammy was 20 years old and ill; I couldn't bring myself to make living changes that would make his life harder. In the meantime a couple of winters passed and I tried to keep the strays warm as best I could. I put some electric blankets on a thick patio rug and came up with some makeshift shelters to put on top of the blankets. They only left the the blankets to eat and go to the bathroom. Then I tried putting a patio heater in my hot water heater closet, which seemed to be warmer. They rarely left the closet the whole Winter. When Sammy died the next Winter I put up a doggy door to see if I could get the strays to come inside my apartment. It didn't take long for the cold weather to coax them in. They were very skittish and hid behind furniture, which was fine - at least they were warm. After about 30 days their personalities changed and they became playful and kittenish. One by one they started letting me pet them when I fed them. Now a few years later 5 out of 6 want to be petted and brushed. They are a handful - it's plenty of work keeping the place vacuumed and shampooing the rug due to "accidents", which happen every week. But I remember when they all had that hunted look on their dirty little faces and how relaxed they seem now, so I'm happy to see that.
There is a look, like they're always on edge watching out for something trying to get them. One of rescues, Momma Kitty, took awhile to get calmed down. When she did, she'd curl up on the arm of my husband's recliner and sleep so soundly she snored! I loved that sound (lost her on Thanksgiving 2 years ago due to cancer). I miss her so much....
This made me so happy! Thanks
*THIS IS WHAT THE FUCKING BROKEN, CRUEL AND FUCKED UP WORLD NEEDS!*
BLESS YOUR HEART 💖 I LOVE YOU🥺
i love people like you guys who'd take care of animals with warmth and gentleness. Literally too pure.
Beautiful!!!!!!!!!
Everyday is Valentine’s Day with our sweetest babies. So much 🥰❤️😘👶🐈
Whoever adopts Phoenix (and Ruby) is getting a Van Cat, a breed from Turkey. Van Cats are pure white with one blue and one green eye, and they love water. Phoenix is actually a variant on that, an Ankara Cat, with one eye gold instead of green. They're highly prized and illegal to export from Turkey, but they do show up all over the world.
Thanks! Interesting stuff.
There was one right next to my apartment. She had been there for quite a while. One day when I went to get my cycle I noticed her but this time she came to me. I petted her and it was amazing. She loved it and would follow me and like ask me to continue. She also had three kittens and I got milk for all of them. But about 4 weeks later they all disappeared.
While the Turkish Van is indeed a specific breed, the term "van" also refers to the color pattern. So while Phoenix may have a Van patterning, that doesn't mean he's a Van breed.
Besides....the Turkish Van is a semi long-hair....Phoenix is short.
I thought he was a kind of flame point.
@@cofkavos A flame point -- ANY of the cats with "pointed" colors, really -- would have color on his paws as well. I see shadowing on certain positions, but no coloring.
Phoenix: Ugh the humans brought home a kitten. I hate social interaction!
Ruby: HI! I'm Ruby!
Phoenix: ...this creature is acceptable. I shall scent it as mine!
Ruby: Hooray! A bath!
Lol
@Keith Pillsbury I was gonna say that!
@Keith Pillsbury OMG someone knew the reference! This makes my monkey brain happy!
Reading it now ^_^
this made me think about Todd in Bojack Horsemann lol
تحية احترام وتقدير لكل من ينقذ حيوانا شكرا لك من القلب للمساعدة
This is such a beautiful story, I’m so happy Phoenix got a kitten to love and take care of! Also that they must be adopted together!
Ruby was got by neighborhood dogs and eaten alive. their update is on Instagram.
"maybe he just doesn't wanna have friends."
impossible. the dodo has taught us that EVERY animal on earth wants friends. especially those that have been abandoned.
I dont know - we had a beautiful cat who just never liked me! But I loved her despite this.
We got her from the Humane Society as a kitten, and she hadn't seemed to have gone through any trauma. It actually got to the point where it was kind of funny.
She'd purr when I'd pet her only if she was eating food. Other than that, I'd pet her and she'd just look at me like, "Mehhh," and walk away.
She loved my dad and brother and even my mom a little. Once they all went on vacation for a week but I decided to stay home and work. Eventually she reluctantly came up to me like, "I need a petting, you're the only one here, so I guess you'll do." She really didn't seem to enjoy it, though, despite both our efforts! 😆
She was such a little beauty. She lived for 22 years! I miss her.
I think sometimes pets are like people - you just make a decision to accept them as is and love them regardless of how they feel towards you. We all need unconditional love from someone. She was my grumpy little angel. 😾💞💕🤷🏼♀️
Unless u a honey badger lol
People, too.
@@excelsior8682 LOL!
Beautiful comment that brought me to happy tears. 💖😸😸💖
this story is like in the movies, a battled and bleeted man with no reason to fight, until a child gave him one, its beautaful
So Up!?
@Mycel One of the purest love stories of all time. A fave.
Like UP.
Joel and ellie
Yeah "bleeted" is a new one to me too. I've heard of "battered and bleeding" but that's the closest thing I could think of
4:20
She responded to her name 😭❤️❤️
This is a beautiful story, lil kitten brings this tired old man of a Cat back to happier day's of playing and living care free with lol ruby.
This is literally the cat version of UP
omg 😭😭
I WAS JUST THINKN THAT OMG😍
Pheonix: *I like no cats*
Ruby: Well, I'm not a cat, I'm a kitten, so TOO BAD!!!
Total “no man can kill me // I am no man” energy
Phoenix: i like *one* cat
@@SportyMabamba this is the first thing I thought!!! XD
Kitties like her, it never fails to amaze me what a little love does for these tiny creatures. He's a beautiful kitty, my first kitty was white so white kitties have a special place in my heart.
Thank you so much for taking these kitties in some one to care for them!
1:29 It's not that he doesn't want friends; his heart was broken when his family abandoned him. Poor little boy-o, he just needs time to heal and learn to trust. So happy that happened.
And he did with Ruby
@@ivycrosswarriors3901 Yes!
Very true.
To all the haters out there who say animals don't have feelings...are you sure you're not just talking about yourself?
So true!
Who says that?
I think I missed something... _do_ people say that?
Um...why focus on attacking the negatives when there’s so much good in the video?
@@hamstersdailylife4938 my dear fellow Dodo fan, I am not focusing on the negativity here. It's more like a little humor bt then again my friends always have said that I'm not good at it😂
I do love this channel BECAUSE of all the positivity here, and that's why I thought I'd add a bit of not-very-good-at-it humour. Have a good day🤗❤
His eyes are so beautiful what
God bless them and their rescuers!!! ❤❤❤
