Teddy passed away this week. So glad he got 4 years of love and safety ❤
Awww, I wish he had had more time of "love and safey" but glad he had it at all.
I'm sorry, he was a lucky kitty!
RIP Teddy 🙏🏼🩵💙
Sorry to hear. What a cutie. ❤
RIP teddy ❤️
I’m glad he got love and care and a home of his own to live in comfort for his last few years.
"Saving one animal won't change the world, but it will change the world for that one animal."
LOVE that
No god will bless him and the cat.

Look a very brutally injured cat saved
True
He was clearly someone's pet at one time. He was receptive to petting, breaks my heart how terrible he looked before he was saved. There truly are amazing people out there from the rescuers, doctors, people that donated money to his surgery his new owners.🙏💜💜💜💜💜
Oh, it depends. He could have lived near schools. Romanian feral cats are skittish, but will tolerate some pets, if they are busy eating.
The ones near schools? They jump on you for pets. Children love animals.
Feels worse knowing this cat might have not been abandoned instead lost. He might miss his family and his family would definitely miss him if that was the case
@@Anreii That's what male cats do if you don't neuter them. They run away from their owners looking for cat p*ssy and never come back. It's called roaming.
Thank you GOD bless you both!🙏❤️🤗💝🥰
After seeing this video years ago, I decided that, when I was able to, I would rescue a cat rather than buy from a breeder. A week ago today, I brought home a snugly shoulder kitten. I just got back from his first official vet visit and thought I should let you know that your videos have a positive effect on people from half a world away (I live in Asia). Keep up the good work and best of luck with your new clinic!
this has made me so happy!! i hope you and your kitty are happy xxx
Bless those who save rescue cats instead of breeders.
Right now I have 8, at one time we had 14. Everybody fixed. I live on social security and don't have much, but we manage. I live in a Mobil home park where people move out and just leave their cats, they show up on my porch starved and hurt. I take care of them and use some of my grocery money to feed them well. And they are not going anywhere, they will always have a home with me.
Hey, same! Guy from India, here. I used to feed and be friendly with a stray mommy. About a year ago, she had 3 kittens. I wanted to bring them inside and do something for them, but my living situation was unsteady.
Within a month, I'm not sure what happened, but two of the kittens stopped coming to see me when I came to our usual feeding zone.
That was it. I took a plunge and bought them inside. Had some ups and downs with my living situation, but we're now happy together!
We're you able to spay te mom and remaining kitten? I hope you have a secure home now. I almost lost my cat a year ago after I lost my apartment suddenly and had no prospect. We even slept in a tent for a couple of nights. He was so miserable and confused... I'm so glad a family member was able and willing to bail us out.
I love how he just walked into the carrier. He knew someone had finally come to his rescue. Cat's aren't stupid.
Nah just domesticated instincts
@@steveboy3712 try it with a random stray...
He’s like i wanna go Home get me outta here.
most cats aren't stupid, they're just scared.
@@steveboy3712 They are smarter than you apparently.
1. I've never seen a cat so willing to get into a carrier. He was so done with being outside he didn't care where they took him.
2. Seeing Teddy become so playful toward the end was so heartwarming! You could tell he felt so much better and that made all the time and effort worth it. ❤
@@bmfanboy8838 😐🤨?
So true. It was like he thought, whatever you're going to do to me, it couldn't possibly be worse than this. Poor little thing. What a transformation!
Kira F, yes, I found a _very_ skittish cat outside my house one evening. It was over -20F outside; and she was so cold and so near death that she _let_ me pick her up and bring her into the house. She was just done with being outside too!
mine was too and it was born and raised stray all its life (till now) and i do these things also, but don't go around flaunting videos of it thinking to pop out my camera everytime for youtube likes and views lmao... wish i could though! x'D (for memories sakes) might have some b4 and after pics tho P:...
You should see my cat at the vet’s. She fights her way back into a carrier 🤣🤣
I found 7 of my cats on the streets of Brooklyn...THANK YOU for saving that baby! I hope he lives a looooong, happy, healthy, loved-up life! 🥰
Me too, I rescued all three of my cats from the streets of Miami, Fl two have past away one at 12 yrs old the other one at 13 yrs old and the last one I have Lucky is turning 16 yrs old today! ❤and still going 😊 I’ve given them the best life possible.
@@TheNakedeyes78Allah razı olsun ❤❤❤
All of mine were strays, plus a couple adopted into my forever home.
It's so sad that ppl abandon their fur babies...maybe they had few options.... Still no excuse!!
what if like the person died-@@juliegoldman411
❤ RIP Teddy. He just passes away after a loving retirement indoors with his favorite humans.
I have never seen a cat so trusting with strangers. Godbless.
Yes me too. Hes so loving ❤❤😺😘🙏
He is clearly domesticated. He isn't a stray, he was abandoned.
Cookie who said he was a stray?
same, even my cat whomst i feed everyday dont trust me :D she always attacks me
Nicholas Forrester there is one down my road who is always sat in the driveway and he’ll meow at anyone going past for a rub on the head
I know it's cliché, but thank you for all you do.
Never could say THANKS TOO MUCH ❣
#HOPE
It’s never cliché to be kind or appreciative.
Saying thank you is never cliche!
appreciation will never become a cliche ❤
I love cats
I cried
I subscribed
My beloved cat, Dodi, is nearly 21 years old & deaf. Dunno if she could handle a new friend, at her age & condition.
Thank you for all the support you give to poor homeless lovely cats.
You see, people? This is exactly how cats should be treated! Great job everybody ❤
That tiny meow at the beginning makes me cry everytime I watch this. It’s why Im a monthly donor to Flatbush Cats. For all of the “Teddy’s”. ❤
_For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in._
And it doesn't just go for people.
Where'd that quote come from?
@@dappy8116 Matthew 25:35.
@Blaaqphoenix not out of context at all mate ☺. God created everyone (cats included)...it applies to all if your compassion is for all, plants too. 😉
@Blaaqphoenix oh shit I was thinking if a skit DMX did in one of his albums where he said that word by word
I love that 96% of this video is just Teddy getting scritches 😂😂
Ikr sooo adorable
Yet it’s so satisfying
It's what he deserves
So relaxing to watch😍
Right
I am amazed Teddy was still able to ask for help even after all that he had been through. You can lead a horse to water you can't make them drink, Teddy was ready and willing to fight for recovery that is a resilient cat.
Animals are resilient like that. My cat was never abused but my dog's last owner used to beat him. Now he's safe with me and I'm training him to be my service dog, and he also participates in dock diving.
Thank you so much to the vets who do the whole "nonprofit discount" thing. Vets have bills too. But when they do things like this it's just magical.
And people really have the guts to say cats are evil.
maddison farr no animal is ^^
Some act evil. But it's all a farce I bet.
It depends on their care takers
Okay but like what does a cat's personality and people's thoughts about them have to do with this video lol, pretty irrelevant if you ask me
My cat is, but we love him
Teddy is so patient! He's just sitting there letting you put a needle in him, wash him, brush him and shove him into a carrier! What a love sponge!
AnimeShinigami13 that is amazing that he let them do all that.
No one shoved him in a carrier, he simply walked in!
@@annek1226 oh right that makes it even cuter. I feel like singing "Somebody to Love" by Queen and playing an epic montage of this guy.
I have never seen a cat so trusting with strangers. Godbless.. Blessings to all those who helped pay for this kitty’s operation..
I've never seen a cat so appreciative of love and affection. Making up for lost time! A half a million homeless cats in NYC alone! Inconceivable.
A former pet, not a feral. Poor thing, not street wise. So lucky to be rescued and treated.
yeah that's what I was thinking. He probably ran away a little too far. He was very trusting of strangers.
Yeah cats who are feral don’t meow at people or approach people
The definition of feral is a once domesticated animal turned wild. This was a feral cat.
Wildgrem - I wouldn't say Teddy was wild, just homeless.
wildgrem he was far from wild considering how tame he was. Most likely abandoned or lost
What a love bug. Teddy really deserved to be worshipped like the emperor he is.
The Real Mythril I have a rescue cat named Nova (short for Casanova) who looks just like Teddy
I love how he hugs whoever is holding him. He’s such a cutie!
Will and Ted's excellent adventures X
Rest in peace Teddy. The rescue and your adopters loved you and you will get to play endlessly with Willie.🌈🌈
🖤🖤🖤🖤
🤍 furever 🤍
Huh? The video didn't say he'd died. He just got adopted.
Unfortunately, Teddy was given a fantastic home for years but passed away after his condition progressed beyond help. Passed away a couple of months ago now.
@@b45623😢
It doesn’t matter how many times I see this video, I always tear up. I love that little guy, thanks for helping him!

Hes gorgeous......good name poor kitty.. glad he rescued😘😘😘😘😺😺😺🐾🐾🐾❤❤❤🙏
Caim Numinous why
That one got me too 😢
But it seems a very sweet baby to me. Hope it gets all the love and affection from your family
I love the ammount of cat petting shots in this video
Don't forget the kitty hugs and 'biscuit making'!!!❤
lunatic gmd it’s what he and we deserve
I get SO ANXIOUS when I watch rescue videos where there are cats who clearly want cuddling but there's like 2 seconds of a vague head pat in the video and then NOTHING. It's like on top of the usual emotional stress of seeing animals who've been through some shit, now there's the added emotional stress of my brain and heart and arms and hands spending the entire video howling WE NEED. TO HUG. THOSE KITTIES!!!! So this video was just utterly, absolutely blissful. Petting, and cuddling, and brushing, and more cuddling, and more petting, and holding, and petting, and loving, and oh my god, the music choice, too. And Teddy, just so OBVIOUSLY and PERFECTLY happy, with his little half closed eyes and his sweet little biscuit making... this is a perfect, perfect rescue video.
@ugur asik Ohhh, you're SO edgey, incel.
Extensive cat petting + calming music is like a warm bath on a cold day...
He’s lapping up all the attention and loving he’s getting. Well done to all those who saved this lovely boy. ❤
Thank you for taking care of abandoned cats that live on the streets where we are mostly rescued at night because during the day the cats hide, this cat rescue in terms of cost is relatively large and requires intensive care. Let's save abandoned cats and sick cats on the streets may God give health and to us Amen. Cat lover Banyuwangi
awww that is so sweet of you to say to other people and so people could know want to do and save cats&dog
Yes, and I’m doing that
I recently adopted two homeless senior cats from local shelters and I just got approved yesterday for a third one, they are bringing him to me this week. I’d save every cat if I could.
@@AdrienneMint good for you dear. Good soul that are. Blessings
@@jodidavis6595 my cats are cats nobody wanted to adopt. A year and a half ago I adopted a senior girl cat who they told me was 10. She lived in the shelter for 8 years. I grabbed her! She is about 12 now, and she’s like a kitten. She runs and jumps and climbs and I love her to pieces. I loved this TH-cam story. Was wonderful.
"He was a domestic cat at some point"
*uncontrollable ugly crying*
I'm so sad to see a cat in this condition. Just genuinely upset
Yea
Bro me too man I can’t stop crying at this it’s so sad to see this

Male cats always wander around and get lost. Maybe that's what happened to him. I lost my cat too,one day he just did not came back home. I've been crying for years because of it.
@@Sunny-qs6qi I'm so sorry :(
My god what a phenomenal temperament on this guy.
That's exactly what I was thinking. What a well behaved, calm cat. A perfect housecat.
Right? Most chill and sweet boy. Just a love.
@@dannieb6702 just about the best demeanor i can remember seeing in a cat. Even straight after that bath he calmed down. Tranquillo Cat
The calmness also comes from the anemia i think

@@connie27100 Ha ha! Indeed!!
I started crying like 2 minutes in and my soulmate cat, Gwen, came over to see what was up. She looked from me to the screen a couple of times, then flopped down, snuggled up and watched the rest of the video with me. You must be doing some damn good work if you melted the heart of the only cat I’ve ever met who adores her human and barely tolerates the two other cats in the house…or maybe she just thought Teddy was a hunk (don’t worry she’s spayed). Thank you for all that you do. I will definitely be donating ❤️

It's crazy how anyone would disregard a dirty cat as something normal. Cats are not like dogs. If they look dirty it means they are probably sick and don't have enough energy to groom themselves. So if you see a dirty looking cat please try to help it if you can!
Ehm... so a dirty dog can't be sick? Street dogs are always dirty and they are all sick.
@@ME.S.E but they don't have a strong an urge to clean themselves in the way cats do, they can be content being somewhat dirty.
@@willowarkan2263
All street animals are dirty and sick. Even street cats that do try to clean themselves.
@@ME.S.E you do realize that cats are effectively still wild animals for the most part. Yes a cat raised in doors is a glorified kitten, but cats with a bit more freedom, can adapt quickly to feral life and the next generation may as well wild animals. Not to mention the entire islands taken over by feral domestic cats. The only way you could argue all feral cats are dirty and sick is by saying all wild animals are dirty and sick. Admittedly it depends on your dirt and sick thresholds and what streets you refer to. Basically what do you define as dirty and sick?
@@willowarkan2263 Even feral cats need care. They don't need to live in houses, but they need food, and to be spayed or neutered and they need their shots. They are not adapted to live as wild animals. They just aren't socialized to accept being touched by humans.
“Will and Ted’s excellent adventures” that’s the best ending! Blessings to all those involved in saving this cat.
He asked for help but he got so much more!!! I wish to thank everyone that donated to his care or vet bill! You are incredibly kind and generous!!!!!!!!!
The poor thing walked right into that carrier as if to say, "Wherever they're taking me can't be worse than where I'm at now."
One thing's for sure: After he got off the street, Teddy became one of the best-loved kitties in the world.
spot on 🙂
I thought the same thing. That poor thing was so defeated…
A sweet and adorable cat. She suffered a lot before. With the help of do many kind people, she became healthy again and gained tones of love. Very happy she is adopted with other cat siblings. Wishing the family would living happily with all the animals.
You’re so right, brilliant analysis. 👍😇😅
That is exactly what i thought , it is just amazing that he realized that fact and never resisted ( i would love to think that he had some of the wisdom to think of it that way )
The way he let them pet him and walked straight to the cage and wasn't afraid of humans clearly shows that he had a family before he is amazing I'm happy they could save him
I would say he did that because the poor cat doesn't have nothing to lose anymore, so he just walked straight to the cage
We lost our cat girl at 13 years old from stomach cancer just before Christmas. The same day, we adopt a stray young tomcat who was skin and bones, covered in wounds and scars. He was very afraid at the rescue , direct from the streets, in our harsh winter in 🇨🇦, but at home, he became suddenly only cuddles and hugs. He was our Christmas gift, due to the vet bills and he is wonderful! He is amazed to have a toys box and nap with them. He has his leather sofa in my room and he sleeps at night on top of my old disabled guinea pig cage. ( i am bedridden) .They love each other, my piggy helps him each morning to steal the hay from his cage for a quick breakfast! They are hilarious! Often, i awoke with his big butt on my pillow and the rest of the cat on my lap! All people are in love with him, he likes to appear on camera when my daughter is in meetings! This week, he discovered how play with a paper bag, so exciting! Each live we save is worth the price and the efforts.
@@murielvaillancourt3855- I can't think of a better Christmas gift than saving the life of a cat.
We've done that several times. My husband finally understands that, to me, the life of a cat, or two, is worth more than gold. Hope you're well, and surrounded by the love of your kitty. And piggy 💕
Muriel Vaillancourt oh please film and share! sounds so amazing!😀
What’s amazing is just how cooperative & grateful Teddy is to everyone. Sweet boy.
Rescue cats are sweeties. My cat was found under the hood of a car as a kitten, and now I can't imagine life without him.
I haven't seen a more well mannered cat than teddy.
my cat is already extremely well mannered but teddy is so much more well mannared than even my old girl
And imagine he was a street cat...just imagine how cool this cat was to even take a bath with no resistance or go to the vet without coming back fully raged
@@kahinaoftheelements4845 it's unbelievable. my cat has no problems going to the vet but if you get her anyhwere near a running tap or the bathtub she screams.. doesen't attack or meow but tries to jump out and just legit screams
Except for the bathing part, my Dizzy was just like him. Just a calm, sweet fuzzy guy. My vet always said his temperament was the best she’s seen. He passed years ago and I miss him dearly.
Rachel and Jun on TH-cam
I'm sure he was a domestic cat once -the way he hugs the lady shows he is used to human contact. Pure feral cats are not gentle like this
1:15 yup

Feral cats hate water
I can testify to that! I have had some felals, not usually the most friendly critters.

Poor Teddy, he wouldn't have lasted much longer on the street. Thank you for helping him and all the other cats. I have adopted cats over the years and they have all been such loving members of the family I also give to Alley Cat Allies to help street cats have a better life.

@@wave9079 fancy seeing you here
LOL hi ya!
He’s a lovely boy. So affectionate. Life has been difficult for him until you rescued him from the streets. Thank you
Beautiful boy Teddy ♥ Such a loving and pure soul. So thankful that he was rescued and is now a beloved family pet 🙌
I loved the first brushing when he lifted his tail like, "Don't forget this, please!"
But, I figured he was used to humans when he allowed you to touch him from the beginning. And when he started grooming himself, a sure sign that he was starting to care again.
But, the saddest part for me? He was shown on television, and the original owners never bothered to contact the station to claim him. Tells you just how much THEY cared.
Doesn't mean they saw it. I very rarely watch the news unless it's been taken to FB and goes viral and I just so happen to see it. His family could very well be out there thinking he's dead sadly.
Also, to be fair, his owner could’ve died, which would very much explain why he was on the street but seemed to be so accustomed to home life.
I’m actually crying he is so handsome and he is such a beautiful boy and I’m so proud of him ofgogmkfdbsvjxjdj

What a courageous, loving, smoochy and incredibly adorable boy Teddy is…so glad he fell into the arms of love. God bless the wonderful people who poured their hearts into saving this precious boy. ❤️
I just rescued a male adolescent cat 3 days ago. I was out in my garden and he came out of nowhere crying and begging for help. I gave him a bath and took him to the vet the next day. He is currently quarantine due to very contagious parasites. I have two cats already. This poor cat kept thanking me constantly. Every time he would go to eat food, he would take a minute to stop and come over and at least let me know that he was grateful for my help. We've a long road ahead of us but it really amazes me when these animals show up and actually ask for help. ❤ Thank you for sharing your kindness. There is another cat in my neighborhood that's got to bend over ears like this little guy which is a sign that there's a lot of health issues going on with him and possibly nights. I can't get him to trust me though. I'm picking up a big carrier so I can help more cats in quarantine them until I can find homes for them. My vet has given me discounts because I bring in so many homeless cats. Shout out to Rasnic Animal Clinic in Duffield, Va!😢
Bless you always, Tiffany! 😇🙏❤
At around 2 minutes when he looks around while being brushed, I couldn't help feeling he was thinking "is this really happening to me..." what a fortune Teddy had to have kindhearted people come across him!
Then his forever home with a his own friend. Every cat needs a friend.
@@Kt-cn2rq my cat hates all other cats...
@spim randsley Why
When we moved in to our new house, a stray cat lived in our garden already. After 2 days of watching us I fed him, after 1 week I can touch him, after 1 month he was our daily guest and now, more than 1 year later he live with us in the house, do what ever he wants, wrecking my nerves every day and is the greatest joy in my life ❤️
I believe you...they steal your heart ❤ 😻
you mean when you moved into his house and he adopted you :-)
💕
@@sunkat76 thank goodness for people caring about Teddy around the world. Always pay it forward any way you can. That is what I try to do each month for cats and kittens around the TriState area. I have 4 rescues around 11 years old now. Caring volunteers make the world go around.
How wonderful for both of you
Love watching Teddy suck up all the love and attention he can. I've been working to help socialize cats for adoption for just over a year and I gotta say.....you have to empathize with a cat that is getting stroked and petted....the sheer look of bliss on their faces lets you know JUST how good it feels.
Aww I love how he just walk right into the cage. He needed help and protection. He must have been through a lot. Look at his condition. Poor baby. Thank you for help him and save his life. Good blessed
You can tell he was loved before.. someone probably misses him. Glad he’s ok
Or more likely he misses someone. People forget about those that die and leave outside cats behind
Someone misses him? If there is someone THAT EX OWNER, I WILL RIP HIS EYES OUT how can he do that to a cat...
@@Lglover3 not everyone is like that. I work at a vet clinic and know people that would literally die for their cat. Sometimes they just wonder off. Cats that were loved like Teddy, most likely just wondered off. My cat crawls into the undercarriage of our trucks and has been lost several times. She always finds her way home and I'm devastated each time she's gone.
@@dalejwosk777 Some cats just get lost, though, like Cerys said. My parents had a cat who ran away just over a year ago, right at the start of a horrible Minnesota winter. We looked for months. We knocked on doors, we put up signs, we called anyone who would listen. Yeah he was chipped but I guess that doesn't let you track them? Just know if they turn up dead and found by animal control. He never came back to us. And we have no idea what happened. Could've gotten stuck in someone's garage, could've gotten hit by a car, could've had any number of things happen. Maybe someone took him in. We can only hope.
This is why it's important to keep cats indoors in my opinion though. My cat is also a rescue who was found lost and on the street and near death. I'll never risk that happening to her.
imagine if that was a human being even if we could take him in and give him a place to stay we wouldn't be able to give him that kind of affection...
He is a big guy. I bet he was someone’s cat that they just left or his owner died. He is very fortunate that you found him.
Maybe they abandoned him.. sometimes people dont want to care for older animals because they're "not cute" anymore :/
@@stephaniezee9704 shame on them 🤨
Teddy is SUCH a good boy and he’s just the sweetest!
Every time I see this video, I get emotional. What you did for Teddy is nothing short of a miracle.
You're like the guardian angel of stray and abandoned cats.
If there's a God, you're doing His work.
I have never in my life seen a cat so calm during a bath. This poor old grizzly bear. Thanks for helping him!

@@TheCandiceWang I never had a cat be chill during a bath in my entire life until I adopted my cat now. I think the chill bathers are 1 in a million. Lol

TRUE WORDS YOU SPEAK HE LOOKED LIKE LIFE WAS GONNA GET THE BETTER OF HIM BUT HE'S TOUGH AND LUCKY HE CAME ACROSS THESE GOOD PEOPLE, I SEE HUMANS LIKE THIS AND I CAN SEE THE PAIN LIFE HAS THROWN AT THEM, IT'S TOUGH 😇
He looked like he'd been through hell and back.
Teddy received a second chance- one that all cat deserve regardless of their origin. RIP to sweet Teddy

Such a gentle baby. How could anyone throw him on the street.
It's highly likely that he got lost, since he wasn't neutered.
Brooklyn has generational street cats. Not necessarily abandoned or lost.
The ones who lived around our neighborhood were all of smaller stature after generations adapting to scarce food sources.
But there were no rats our neighborhod either unlike closer to downtown...
The guy said he could of wandered off and got out side no one said they threw him on the streets.
@@badlaamaurukehu the guy said it seemed like the cat had owners before though.
@@K-popstanLuver I know. I was just stating what I have observed. Not quite sure what portion of Flatbush/Brooklyn this was but it is a fairly long thoroughfare in a very large borough with quite a few different urban biomes in between waters and I happened to have rescued a few locals myself.
me: plans a productive day
also me: spends hours on youtube crying over cat rescue videos that i dont even know why are in my suggested
Shit, don't watch the soldier and cat video, you won't stop crying after what happens and the heartbreak that follows.
Obviously you are watching similar videos and that is the reason of toutube recommendations 🙈
@@justyna365 yep now im hooked
@Thizbee feelings are productive too (L)
Thizbee Sez Same! I can’t tear myself away!
Какое счастье видеть спасенную душу!!!❤ Спасибо всем людям кто помогает выжить животным!!!❤❤❤💋🙏
What a sweet boy, I hope he wasn't just abandoned. I'm not crying, you're crying.
Yes...I’m crying. And this video is 1000% worth it. 🐾❣️💕
No I’m not crying, just sweating
I hope not, but if he wasn’t it means a family lost their beloved cat. Tears either way 😭😭😭
I cried too because I am sure he went through a lot on the street. Thank God they found him, and they gave all so much love that he deserved. Teddy knew he was in good hand from day one. I was sad and happy coz now, he has a loving home. He got so much love to give to the rescuerers and his human parents. God bless and long live Teddy. Love & Kisses.
Me and my 13 rescued kitties
I'm crying...
He looked so defeated when you first found him. It made me cry. I’m gonna go hug my fur balls now.
you like owls?
@@elgooghosent7080 I like you weirdo
@@waltersobchak7275 but seriously my aggin, you like owls?
@@elgooghosent7080 do you want to play war? How about boxing? Do you want to box?
@@waltersobchak7275 man we both hate dog lovers, weare on the sameside calm down.
i'm glad teddys story came back up today - and the update too. thank you so much. you are truly loved and wonderful.
It must have been hard to leave Teddy but he got the best treatment and care during the toughest part of his recovery. Another new home sweet home with a bonus kitty pal to run around with ❤.
Looks like he belonged to someone before. He’s very trusting and affectionate
You'd be amazed how loving some kitties are.
As loving as he is, if someone was his guardian, how could they let him go or just abandon him? Sometimes I really hate humans.
Cat he explains at 1:15 , maybe he wandered too far and couldn’t find his way back home and his owners lost him.
Yeah, I lost a cat that way myself … one day he was just gone.
I just hope he found another home.
@@Grumpy_old_Boot he probably did. I adopted a cat found down by the freeway by animal control. He was skinny, full of fleas and filthy. Vet said he was around 10 years old. He is super sweet and affectionate. Likes everyone, had him for 6 years now. Definitely not a feral cat, obviously had a home before me. Probably got lost, and like you, they are wondering what happened to him . But he is here in a great home with a loving family, and very , very happy.
He walked right into the carrier knowing you would save him 💖
It's so cute
Breaks my heart so many poor animals need so much help. I wish I could just save all the kitty's and other animals in need. Think we all wish we could😭
I can’t stop crying. Having a sick pet is such a traumatizing experience. Seeing him get shots and fed through a tube made me so emotional. He has no idea why he feels so yucky or why he can’t drink water. Poor baby. I’m so glad the procedure worked and he’s feeling better. ❤
poor little kitty. really wanting a home and so appreciating it. that bypass is amazing!! a wonderful, playful, feeling so good - look at him go!! also, a lovely vid. thank you so very much.
i have a kitten who we found drenched in motor oil and nearly dead. Brought him home, cleaned him up, nursed him back to health. Hes still a bit skiddish but doing very well. His name is Dusty Bones, a lovely long haired mix.
....Happy New Year to you & your Dusty! Blessings.
AWWWW how good of you! Good job for rescuing that kitty! 😸😸😸
SkiTTish. sorrynotsorry
God bless you 💖
❤❤❤
“Hey, buddy.”
“Meow...”
😭😭😭
I love all the shots of your partner loving on Teddy. You can tell she's such a kind soul- she has such a way with the cats.
Rest in peace, my sweet boy ♥️😔 I’ve loved you from miles away..
He is like "I don't care who you are, just pet me and I will give love back"
Right....he's such a sweet little guy.
This cat has SO much love to give.
I'd be way too emotionally attached to be a foster parent
It 'is' very hard to give up a cat after you have fostered them. I still think about one I named "Jack", who was so sweet and loving, from 10 yrs ago. But I'm sure he was adopted into a good home. You have to give them up so you can help save more. It's a rewarding cycle. ❤🐱
God created the house-animals for the human beeings. For to show us His great Love for us...and to make many people soft-hearted.
In a fallen world....as the Bible tells...People need warm hearts around.
Just so little as giving a warm thank with a smile and a little wink when cars stops by a fot-passing in the street...thats not allways happen...but when I give them a friendly attitude.
It is such small everydays-things that makes me soo happy to respond on☺😘😘
@@torilllundborn7899 You are so right about doing little things to spread love. Aim to be the person who radiates a joy and happiness to others around. The energy we give off spreads in an exponential way!
Rickson Denden my sister once fostered a kitten she found outside of her workplace and ended up keeping her because she grew attached to it. Couple months later she found another stray kitten in her friends neighborhood and instantly kept him. Now she has Azula (her dog, she adopted her bc no one wanted the runt) Niko (the first kitten) and Salom (the second lil guy, idk how to spell his name lol)
Me too
Teddy~ You’re truly a “King” in my book. Enjoy your new life, you really deserve it ❤️
It took about 4 months, a box of bandaids, and a tube of neosporin (plus maybe 8 bags of meow mix) to befriend a Ferry the feral cat who lives below my wood deck. He just showed up on day. He doesn’t meow much any more, but Ferry the feral cat brought out something in me I thought I never had. I melt when Ferry let’s me rub his soft fur on his chest. I don’t dare touch his back - still, heh. I’ve never been a cat person until Ferry the feral cat walked into my life. What a treasure. 😃
“It’s clear he had a home at one point” *intense crying*
awww don't cry :D
I know 😭Who on earth would throw a beautiful loving cat like trash?
@@danielsousa7860 not necessarily. They didn’t mean any harm by it.
My heart sank hard at that exact moment
@ maybe he was annoying for them?
My cat would never let me pet him that much. Teddy must have been starved for affection.
One of my cats jumps up and sleeps next to me in bed, he nudges up against my shoulder
All night he stays and in morning he follows me around
Some cats are like that but my other is jerk, ignore me all day
It all depends on how you treat/treated them when they were young and how you treat them currently, they remember everything.
I've never liked cats. Like NEVER I actually hated them. Until my neighbor who lives downstairs brought a baby cat home. I never mistreated him, and I think I've been the most affectionate with him since his neighbor is never home. The reason I never liked cats it's because they would never let me grab them and would scratch me or whatever and this cat is kinda like teddy he let's me hold him like a baby. Thanks to that cat I'm here looking at cat videos and now I actually like cats and see them on a whole different perspective. 💜👌🏻
@@StevieMichelle - You've got to learn to 'read' cats before you start scritching them and picking them up etc. - it's not that difficult, and you will know when/which times you can do what to them.
Cats have different personalities 🤷♀️ My first cat didn’t like to be touched. She loved spending time near us but wouldn’t let us touch her. My neighbors cat on the other hand is clingy af.
I rescued 4 cats years ago and found them homes. I have always wanted to do more. My cat recently passed from Kidney Failure. Right now im desiring to rescue another cat. These videos are are a blessing, and so are those who have a heart to give back. Amazing community of cat lovers😊
I think I've probably watched this about 5 times and it still makes me happy.
You spoiled him rotten. In a good way. He deserved to be pampered and love.
Me watching this kind of videos: So cute. I want a cat.
My cat: aM I a JoKe tO yOu?
its never enough cats
@@cinder6888 that's true ;)
@@susanjones6040 Hm. Nope. 😅 I have 2 cats, 3 when my grandmother go into the hospital. My cats hate her cat. That's very exhausting.
But if you have several from childhood, they usually get along and of course, many more cats are possible. Unfortunately, my cats are already too old for a new one.
I work with translater, sry if some words are strange or riddiciulus 😅
@@_buecherwurm_ hahahaha poor you, and don't worry English isn't my first language either :)
Amy Alvarez same😂 I have a birman and she doesn’t like to cuddle...but she is my baby and I love her❤️
God bless you beautiful people for saving that beautiful cat ❤❤❤❤
You guys are absolute angels. Thank you for your great work and for your loving hearts.
If he did run away from home because of hormones and got lost I really want to believe that his previous home was sweet with him because of how relaxed he was during all of this
You never know. It could be some homeless person's cat. Sometimes homeless will have animal companions. If the human dies, they will end up being alone.
I adopted a cat like this. He was much older, but such an angel. Unfortunately cats who are going through kidney complications, especially male cats, will pee on the rug when they have flare-ups. A lot of people either aren't able or interested to get them expensive procedures like this done or they just think the cat has behavioral issues, and they wind up dumped
He definitely seemed like he’d had a hime. ❣️
Some cats, like my Simon, are just...wanderers. They are oblivious and simply start walking.
I think he was so easily rescued because he was very tired and sick and had been that way for quite a long time. Getting in a carrier with a can of food it in may have been his last gasp for survival. He looked ready to give up at the start of the video. So happy he has found a home. Even better, a home that came with a big brother cat to play with!!!
Because it needs to be said, a big Thank You! and blessings to the rescuers and those who support them.
Smiles all the way thru
Poor old Teddy looked like he had been rode hard and put up wet when you found him, but in the end he turned out to be quite a fine feline! A truly magnificent specimen! Very loving.
As a lover of cats, my heartfelt thanks to all who participate in the rescuing and nurturing of a cat like this
That desperate meow he lets out when hes being petted at the beginning just makes me break into tears
Im the 699th like, your welcome
