Back in August 1999, I found a black and white young adult male cat nosing around the dumpster at my favorite restaurant. He was obviously a stray. I took him home and he turned out to be the best cat I ever had. He died of cancer about nine years ago. I still miss him.
Strays make the best pets. We too adopted a stray. Six months old, all white, pink nose and ears. She died at 17, of cancer in 2002. Best cat ever. I'll miss her for the rest of my life 🥺🐱
@@donnabaardsen5372 Indeed. Strays do make the best pets.
@@donnabaardsen5372 I have a girlfriend in Washington state whose cat Lily Bell was all white and lost both her ears to cancer before it metastasized. So beautiful but they can be so heartbreaking. Same thing with most tuxedo cats they seem to not be a very Halle offshoot of cat genetics. My girlfriend add to tuxedo kittens from bideawee in NYC and she lost both of them to some form of thorax cancer. We adopted a tuxedo kitten from a local couple who had been conceived in Valley Forge Park and she passed away suddenly at the age of three and a half. Very heartbreaking because they are just the nicest most personable cats but they don't last very long.
I had a stray cat that we named Tom but he liked me and my mum, he was a tuxedo but fluffy and very affectionate. He’d lived to the age of seventeen last year, and I miss him every day.
Bless you for giving him a good life. ❤️
Rule #1 of cats: you don’t adopt the cat. The cat adopts you.
This is true.
YES, so true...!!! 😅😂🤣🐈
Why do cats choose me all the time? I legally can’t have anymore (max catpacity) and Im allergic 😂
its like they know
**National Anthem of the Soviet Union intensifies**
I know this all too well
Your cat chose you for sure. They know home when they see it in a human's face. Love that your fur babies are happy with each other.
That cat chose you. He chose you to save him and give him a forever home. It's a cats world and we're just living in it.
Could not of said it better..💛💛
😊
That’s what love looks like ❤
Don't I know it!! We live in the country and I remember when we "acquired" our first barn cats. Since then, I've lost count of the number of cats that have showed up at our door. Some have stayed. Some have moved on after staying a while. But we now have cats residing in literally every structure on the property - the house, two barbs, a shed and a lean-to. They're often terrified when they get here, but they all worm their way into our hearts. We didn't set out to do this. It just happened organically. We don't force them to live anywhere in particular either. They're welcome to come inside - though that can get overwhelming for us at times! One cat came into the house for the first time after about eight years the other night - magical moment!! She still doesn't want to be touched, but that's okay. She's working at her own pace. We keep the garage warm, and there's a furnace in the big barn, so there are options for those that aren't ready to trust humans. Food and water is always available. It's definitely a cat's workd and I'm just a servant here!
@@janetshaw1870 Yes indeed. They will give you their heart if you give them yours.
My elderly cat, Pedro, found me on a walk. I heard him crying and called, kitty, kitty and he burst from the riverbank, and climbed me like a tree. He rode home on my shoulders. He has owned me for almost 20 years now. Animals know who to hitch a ride with lol! 🐈🐈🐈
God bless you and your cat. Enjoy every minute.
@@GlobalTV123 We lost Pedro just after Thanksgiving this year. I held him as he crossed over. He is buried up on a hill overlooking the river. I miss him so much…
@@karmaleenash2841I'm sorry for your loss. Sounds like you and Pedro were meant to be. I'm sure he's scampering around up in heaven like he's young again ❤❤❤
@@archgirl7797 I sense him around still sometimes.
This lady should be a professional pet namer… Tyrion for a corgi is incredible & so is gritty for a cat.
Yes, indeed. Tyrion has its origins in the Welsh language meaning 'kind' or 'gentle.' Perfect name for that lovely Welsh corgi and that cat showed equal amounts of sheer grit in order to survive!!
I'm the worst at naming pets, I wish I had her talent lol 😻❤️😀
I bet she named the dog after Tyrion Fordring in WoW. Your animals are awesome!
@@AskAdam28 prob not, looks like she spells it Tyrion and the wow character is Tirion. You really think it would be the wow character vs the much more popular GOT character who’s known for being short?
Dumb lol
A stray cat rides home on my shoulders licking my face i'm keeping that cat! what a wonderful thing.
The Kitten read her like a book! "You are a wonderful person, and we will be a family. Now take me home!"
I think Gritty was used to standing up for himself in the great big outdoors. So when Tyrion tried to show him who was boss, Gritty was having none of it.
Now they are equals. Lovely story!
This is so beautiful. Glad she was there for Gritty and Tyrion is a great doggie too!!
She found an angel, took it home and gave 120 percent effort to make it work. What a reward she received. Bless her for going above and beyond.
Freakin love people like you. Cat needs help and you immediately answered the call, didnt even need 1 second to think “how will this inconvenience me”. Brilliant. What a cute family. The corgi has the warmest beautiful eyes and Gritty is all heart and soul
I adore these kind people who don't turn away from those who are helpless, wherever they find them! And that's one cute corgi!
You are so right. Never ever turn your back on an animal that finds the courage to ask you for help like this cat did.
What a beautiful story! You were meant to be Gritty’s mama and Tyrion was meant to be Gritty’s big brother. What a beautiful, special, and adorable relationship Tyrion and Gritty have, they are so cute together. You are a wonderful woman for not only stopping and helping Gritty, but then welcoming him into your life. Gritty will always love you and he is a gorgeous and loving little boy, your lucky! God bless you and your little furbaby family!
Agree ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
My cat-chasing little dog absolutely adored her when we brought home a big kitten like this one. Sadly they're both not with us anymore so this story brought back some very fond memories. Thank you. ❤️
(Though he would still chase away all other cats. 😄)
Now that is a beautiful human and the Corgi is also well behaved so there's nothing to prove... She is an Angel!
This cat knew that you would take care of him. He is lucky to have you and your dog as his family 🥰🙏
Looks like my Bandit who we found as a stray as a kitten. That cat moved multiple times across the country with me and was by my side for almost 19 years. He passed away from cancer last year and I miss him terribly. I know he had a good home so I take comfort in that.
Thank you for keeping Gritty!! I especially love that you didn't just say "my dog hates cats- so no", but you tried, and look at how it worked out! So many people say "my cat" "my dog" "won't accept" "hates" other animals etc. a lot of times, it's the owner that is the holdup. Now Tyrion has a buddy, sibling, and partner in crime. Love it!
Beautiful cat. He kissed you all over, to show you that he will be fine under your umbrella. Now having friendship sibling in the house to play with, is a blessing for each other. Thank you for taking him home 🏡
What a sweet kitty. Thanks for saving him.
Smart cat, he figured out its best to just get along
omg you're so lucky - shoulder cats are SO special. I only hope to be blessed with another in my lifetime. 🙂
You did such an awesome job! Congratulations!
Wonderful story.....I am not surprised at all.......I have had many cats and dogs get along just fine !❤
Kitty sure loves and appreciates his new family and so clearly his mum for saving him. He touches her gently.
A cat choosing you and giving you kisses is a blessing
Bravo! The world needs more people like you! Best of luck to you and your two soulmates!
Woman, you and your dog have just been adopted by this lovely little thing. Congrats!
Thank you young lady…& Tyrion too!
I adopted two stray cats roaming around my home. They have been such a great addition to the family.!
That is the most loving cat. You are blessed doubly now with TWO precious pets.
Perfect-Now we need to find more responsible, kind souls-humans- to step up like we have!!
The old climb on your shoulder lick face sad face ploy ...works every time...lmao 🤣
Of course they get along ... kitten has some dirt on doggy ..
Aw, that's just so sweet! Corgis aren't known for backing down if they don't want to (they're cow-herding dogs after all!). They're definitely BFFs 💖 Bless you for taking the little one in!
The minute I saw...almost said my cat! lol! I had the identical situation, I found a cat on the third floor meowing with the same white dot on the back and the same color! Went straight to the vet, bcs she had a wound on her head. By the time she healed we created a bond and nobody wanted her. So now she is five and she has that diva personality. She felt in love with my first cat, so now we have two. The first one was cash, so the second one as she was small at the time when we found her, was named "penny" lol
My point was: save cats, they will give you a lot of fun memories)
I really loved this channel becuse they rescue animals♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️❤️♥️♥️♥️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Me too! It’s a salve for the soul.
Tryion just needed to meet a cat that didn't take any of his lip. I'm glad they get along so well with each other. We used to have a female dog that everytime we brought home a new kitten (and it was done quite often, we lived out in country and needed a mouser but given where we lived they kept disappearing) she wanted to love on them so much but at first they would have nothing to do with her. This caused her lots of distress, but eventually we would find the new kitten trying to nurse off of the dog and she would lay there and allow it even after the cat became full grown. She had puppies in the past but it had been many many many years since her last litter, but her maternal instincts were strong.
You did so very very well there lady. Giving a homeless cat a home, saving his life and managing to get your dog to accept him and come to love him. I wish all three of you long and happy lives together.
PS did you get them neutered?
I found a tiny black & white kitten in the early 2000’s leaving my friends apt building one night. As soon as I opened the lobby door, his little head peeked up and he meowed. He must have been around 6 weeks? I ended up keeping him, named him Stickers and he lived for 15 years. He was so cool, loved car rides, would flop down on sidewalks in front of strangers to show his belly (so rare) to get pets, gave tons of kisses on my body to the point of rubbing my skin raw!….he passed in 2019 and I miss him so much 😢
I've seen several videos of black & white kitties with similar marking. They all seem to have that people loving personality like our kitty that passed away Checkers. We definitely miss him. So glad you found Gritty and made a home for him. 😻
The “soundscape” we hear when Tyrion and Gritty (GREAT name, btw!) are kind of evaluating the risk posed by the other is BRILLIANT.
Such a beautiful video. I experienced a very similar situation many years ago. Long story short, my dog and cat became BFFs and spent almost 15 years as cuddle buddies. They both went on to Heaven about the same time. I believe they did not want to be without each other. Even though they have been gone for years, the loss is still so painful.😪 I wish you three many happy loving years together. ❤️
You are amazing. Thank you for saving him. And I'm so glad that things have worked out! God bless you and your family, have a great day!
Gritty has a cute little black goatee 😺
I love this woman's attitude, I think she did everything right and she's clearly very caring. Gritty made an excellent decision choosing her! And Tyrion the dog is so sweet too, it seemed like once he realised that the cat wasn't intimidated Tyrion accepted Gritty as an equal and welcomed him into the pack! 😊❤️
That lovely kitten chose you! So happy you took them in :D
Hands in the air for another awesome B&W Tuxedo cat. Your fortunate, they are known to be talkative ,friendly, smart, loving, sociable, all around terrific cat. And the bond with Tyrion is forever. There are years of delight awaiting you all. Delightful!!
It's true when they say that you don't choose a pet, a pet chooses you!
Aww, Tyrion is so sweet about being around Gritty. Such a fun relationship. Hope you are all doing well.
What a WONDERFUL and blessed pair! They’re both ADORABLE, and will continue to be great friends! Many, many thanks for taking in Gritty and providing the perfect home that he deserves!
Good thing she tried that peanut butter trick! 😆 ❤️
He almost looks exactly like my Bandit! I was outside with my mom and dog when I heard these tiny mews and it took me two hours, but I was able to catch him. He was 8 weeks old, all by himself, couldn't find mom and no one claimed him. He's my baby boy now.
So cute. 🥰
My cat came to me as well in a similar way. Same deal, he was skinny, unchipped, unneutered, meowing his head off and really seemed to need some help. Except he just randomly showed up in my yard one day while I was crying on my front porch. I was grieving the passing of my dog, Dream. He had passed away exactly 3 months before. So, for this cat to suddenly show up just then seemed like a gift sent from beyond. He's my little angel. So, I named him Anu which means "angel" in Tamil. 😇 🐈
That's a beautiful story. I'm glad you found each other, I know all too well the pain of losing a pet. Lost mine over 10 years ago and it still makes me cry. I miss him so much it hurts.
@@Orlandeau2415 I'm still barely functional over one year later due to my grief. Anu is the only thing keeping me going and keeping my heart from shattering into a billion pieces. I knew it would be hard when it was time for my pup to move on. Just never fathomed how hard. It's been very surreal. I miss him SO MUCH. 😢😭💔
But I couldn't be more thankful for Anu. 🙏
@@WildAlchemicalSpirit It was/is so hard for me I think because I'm somewhere on the autism spectrum (never diagnosed but pretty sure), It's near impossible for me to make friends and even harder to keep them. I can't form close bonds with people even though I really want to. With Pudge, the one I lost, I was able to form that deep bond with him so when I lost him, I felt so alone again and still do. 39 years old and no friends.
I had a feral cat I named Missy finally trust me after 8 straight months of daily effort, and she ended up pregnant and decided to bring her babies into my house into my room. I started fostering her after that, I was the only human she'd let anywhere near her and we became really close over 7-8 months. Unfortunately, I could not keep her so I had to give her up. I miss her so much, I think she really would have helped me. Anyways, I'm glad you have your kitty, they can do wonders.
That cat is so affectionate! what a precious one - YOU are the fortunate one!!!! :) Enjoy each other!!
Tyrion is like "What in the actual HECK!!??" I'm glad they get along. 🙂Cats do choose, sometimes, don't they? Gritty waited till he saw the right jogger and then went for it. Happily ever after. 😀
Hello adnaloy , how is everything over there I hope enjoy your day with your family over there?
So thrilled for the cat!! He thinned out waiting for the perfect person and it all worked out. Great job by the woman who not only rescued him but helped him mesh into the family.
Oh that little Gritty Kittie really chose you and no matter what he was gonna win everyone in your household over. He was determined to win over your Tyrion. What a wonderful story. I love this bond they have now. You are blessed.
Good boy, Tyrion! What a blessing for kitty! And…you’re a good mom!!
I love the markings around his mouth.
What a gift! He chose you. Perfect fit for you and your pup.
What a beautiful Kitty-Kitty!
Thank you, Kate, for your video. You've created a harmonious family which is a credit to your caring demeanor.
This is a classic case of Cat Chooses Human. So glad it all worked out 🥰
One of the reasons tyrion bonded with gritty is because she did. The other cats were threats, this one was part of the pack. "ok, it's a new member I have to get along with it because the alpha has".
To have one dog or one cat to love and take care of and have them love you back is a most wonderful and truly amazing and incredible experience. To have a dog and a cat to love and take care of at the same time and get loved back by them at the same time is beyond description. That woman is so fortunate and s blessed and she is an angel for taking in both a dog and a cat.
Thank you for saving, and keeping this sweet kittie. Heart hug to you kind, loving person.
Thanks so much for rescuing this poor, beautiful stray.
He's a beautiful cat and a beautiful corgi dog as well and they clearly love each other .
Tuxedo cats are so friendly and loving
This cat was meant to stay and be in your life that's wild ... Omg how precious 💕 I'm glad you kept the cat 🐈⬛🐕
How sweet that kitty licks her all the time, like a dog, so Gritty approved and picked the best person 👍; Tyrion was sweet and patient too 👍🦴💚
This is such a beautiful story. Thank you for rescuing him. I'm a cat over myself, so this story is endearing to me.
Your Kitten is a beautiful Boy. He must have been dumped , thank goodness he found you. Your lovely dog and adorable kitty make a great family . We adopted a kitten , but he tends to attack us than kiss , we love him .
What a beautiful story thank you so much... Cutest little dog and cat!
I have wondered if animals have this kind of 6th sense, that just tells them: this is THE one! Now I have found my home.
How precious! Thank you for saving him!
Thank you for being so kind. And Tyrion too.
So cool to see them become such great friends, they truly love each other!
Gritty and Tyrion is so cute friend 😁
Such a heartwarming story! Thankful it all worked out ❤️❤️
I saw this kitten near my house at Thursday and Friday I went home crying because this is the only cat I saw so far I love cats and kittens
You made this charming cat a very happy chappie. His was yours from the moment he licked you. How could you resist. I couldn't have. They both have each other for company now.
I'd be happy seeing an hour of these guys. Thank you for caring for Gritty and giving him a forever home.. And your dimples are amazing 🤩
Congratulations on your new love
You wonderful hooman!!!! ❤️
He adopted you ❤ What a precious match, and all those kisses 😊
It's crazy how much intuition cats have. And the fact that they know exactly how to act so the human pets are reeled then... we all accept they run the house
She is amazing, and did a great job introducing them!
Wish one day I can be a kitty rescuer, too.
Awe so sweet
You three are so cute! I wish you wonderful years together!
💕🐶👩🏼🐱💕
What an uplifting & heartwarming story. Gorgeous fur babies. Thank you for sharing.
The peanut butter trick? Genius!🐶🐈💕
This beautiful friendship was meant to be! Thanks for saving this kitty's life! ❤
That baby knew YOU were his momma. He's at his furever home.😸
God bless you for saving this baby
Lovely, heart warming story. That cat was so friendly. Love that your dog and cat became friends 💛💛
Cats have a knack for finding the people they are meant to be with…❤
I love these stories so much!!! Thank you for taking in this adorable kitty! So glad your equally adorable dog loves him..dogs and cats get along fine despite what you might hear!! ♥️♥️
2:25 I don't know why the awkwardness of that moment made me laugh so hard. They really were trying to feel each other out. lol
