Hey there, cat people in the making. Today's tale is one for the books. It starts with a self-declared dog person who volunteered at a local shelter during a break from work. She walked in confident that cats were cute, sure, but not really her thing. Fast-forward a few shifts and she's completely under the spell of one very charismatic kitty named Barry.
Barry, formerly known as Smudge, had been passed over time and time again. But he was sweet, snuggly, full of personality, and very vocal about his love for snacks. One moment he was a shelter regular, and the next he was her new best friend. They bonded fast, and before she knew it, she was the proud human of a cat who now demands nightly yard strolls on a harness and gives her looks that say "you're lucky to have me." The best part? Her boyfriend and their dog love Barry too. What started as a "just helping out" moment turned into a lifelong cat connection. Because sometimes you don't choose the cat life, the cat life chooses you.
