Garfield Story

[@yasip9897]

I love that he chose you. It is a sign of your warmth and kindness. He knows that you're a loving person and that you love animals.

[@sunbeam8866]

In the summer of 1980, my folks moved, along with their two cats, to Virginia Beach. Soon after moving in to their new place, this gorgeous long haired white female cat showed up at their door. The cat was very friendly. Mom asked the neighbors next door and found out she belonged to the 10 year old girl across the street. So Mom brought the cat back to the girl's mother, who thanked her. Everything seemed fine, until the cat showed up three days later. Mom returned her again. This happened several more times, until maybe the ten year old girl , or perhaps her parents, had obviously grown tired of their cat. Finally, the mother suggested to Mom "Why don't you just keep her?". So my folks did, and Mom named her 'Blanca'. Mom called her "my only daughter", as all her other children, and cats, were males. Blanca survived my Dad and the two male cats, and lived a long, happy life, keeping Mom company for 20 years.

We found an elderly neighbor on our evangelism route. He had the same story. A cat showed up and kept returning. The family finally told the elderly man to keep the cat. The man seemed very lonely and I think the cat sensed he was lonely.

[@yantimeowmeow5320]

You are so blessed to be chosen by a cat.

[@noeraldinkabam]

Yeah, it looks like heaven. If I knew the way I might turn up on your doorstep too.

[@loisaustin6200]

Am I the only one who thinks we need, crave, more Honeysada videos? I honestly believe they are good for our souls and mental health to see such beauty, especially in these troubling times. Just a hint, Honey. We miss you and that beautiful love you give to nature and all the critters. Your videos brighten our lives more than you know.

[@janethagaman1998]

Garfield was no dummy following you home. Now he's got it made. Lucky Cat!

[@joyfryc3109]

I think you are an animal whisperer...all of your pets are friendly, calm, inviting and completely at home

[@tommypetraglia4688]

Oranges are special. When I die I'm coming back as one of your cats

[@ArethusaArose]

I'd try and move in, too - you have created an Eden it seems where everyone including the non human animals are treated with kindness, care, respect and love - who doesn;t want to live in a heaven like that!? :)

[@luzcka]

No one is a "cat owner", they choose their home and humans...

[@SuperLaplander]

Sweet cat with a strong will to feel happy.

[@l-bird]

Who can blame him, I'd want to live there too, Lol.

[@mariealv4888]

Me too

[@donnadory7482]

🌿🌺🌿 🤗 Me three👍💓 🍃🇺🇸🕊️🌎🕊️🍃

[@r.mcbride2837]

What a handsome gent Garfield is! I'm partial to ginger kitties. As they say, you don't pick cats, they pick you. Every one of ours has pretty much just shown up at our place, out of nowhere, and stayed. We live way out in the country, like you do, so we have no idea where they come from, but we're delighted to have them.

[@e.r.4077]

"He sought out, and found, his version of heaven." So true. He recognized the good vibes, there.

[@lekkki1]

Handsome, handsome lad. I think he has a stealth crush on Nanny. Happy Trails Mr. Traveler!

[@johannmckraken9399]

Cats know a kind soul when they find one. I’ve always thought that if cats are attracted to you then you must be a good person. It really goes for all animals, they just have a way of knowing these things.

[@ted1091]

That's because Garfield knew he'd spotted the real deal

[@cwo2mdfay]

Reinforces the old adage, cats pick us.

[@chandrasmith1056]

Great story,I don't blame Garfield if I was a kitty I would want to live there too...he knew you were a good man and he'd be safe....

[@kathill2567]

It is very special when a cat *CHOOSES YOU* ... they bring with them *good luck* . Glad you finally quit taking him back. ;-)

[@SEJ3333]

I love this story and it is much like our own cat story! He came into our home numerous times but belonged to a neighbor across the way from us. After a couple of years of back and forth his owner made the biggest gesture of letting us keep him - he is now happily ours and where he chose to be!

[@mistycat8794]

Ginger and ginger & white cats are usually the friendliest cats you can meet. I used to work with cats and have known many but all cats are divine. Then there are those like Nanny who seem like a person in a feline body.

[@sonwukong7602]

this is a really independant and bold cat. finding his own paradise and walk a very long distance. what a nice journey.

[@truthseeker243]

I take breaks in the middle of the day just to enjoy your ambience, calming spirit, and adorable, smart cats. Flowers and pets are God's Clues.

[@suestanton5095]

What a wonderful story, who wouldn't want to live there. He is one lucky cat with 9 lives and knows love when he sees it. Animals are not dumb!

[@leibiackbear5437]

We don’t adopt cats, they adopt us. We like to think we choose them, but truth be told, cats and many other animals choose where they want to be. Garfield is a marvelous lesson to follow your heart and live your dreams. Joyous weekend to you😸😺

[@ginadisbrow9324]

I can't get enough of 'honeysada' and his beloved animals and their escapades. Their sanctuary couldn't be more ideal and happily situated. A note for anyone that doesn't know; a cat's tail strait up in the air means total security and contentment.-Google.

[@SEJ3333]

Exactly how we got our boy! We live in a huge apartment complex by the beach with many buildings. After about 3-4 years of him escaping from and being returned to the building he lived in 2 buildings away, his original owners decided to honor his choice in guardians. We are honored to have him...

[@muhammadkarim7360]

When a cat chose you, that means you are incredible person

[@Shrek-kj8zw]

Garfield risked his life just to live with you guys. You are very kind hearted. ❤️

[@spaydunaway]

Home is where the heart is.

[@suej9329]

I’ve always found ginger cats to be gentle and affectionate. Garfield already looks at home. I hope this video inspires people to give a homeless cat a home. ❤️😻🐾🐈🙏🏻🏠😎

[@MissDashwood1]

It's easy to see why Garfield wants to live with you, your animals have hit the jackpot! You have a lovely nature and the animals sense that.

[@Ivan_Pekonkin]

I absolutely agree with you.

[@LD-lddh]

Garfield just felt the love and comfort and safety of living with you and your family. Cats are very resourceful and also extremely aware of their surroundings so he chose you. Lucky you! Love this story and all of your videos. Thanks for all you do.

[@ruththomas1652]

Cats are so boss; so independent. They do not like their lives dictated by some lesser creature, i.e. humans or dogs. If you let them be themselves, they will love you forever. You obviously gave him the environment he wanted, both physically and emotionally. He's a real sweetheart and you are lucky he chose you.

[@fiona44424]

May the positive energy that surrounds you continue to be an inspiration.

[@caryg7562]

This is an incredible story. Garfield is a beautiful cat. I can see why he kept returning to live with you and your large family of other cats and dogs. It is heaven for him.

[@kamrulahsan06]

Thanks for sharing his story with us. Long live Garfield

[@freespeechforall1069]

Thank you for sharing Garfield's story, a beautiful cat who chose your home for himself.

[@equinox6944]

I think you’re such a wonderful person. You have so much love and care for animals. The world is better place for having you 😊❤️

[@donnaviestenz7773]

Amen.

[@Ecovaluations]

I can certainly understand why Garfield wants to live on your farm. Thanks for telling his story.

[@mck2021]

To be chosen by a cat is an extreme honour and blessing!!

[@MsBamafanatic]

That is the best family he could have ever joined. If I were a kitty or puppy, that's exactly where I would want to live.

[@rosysingh6699]

Please do a Q&A for your subscribers. We would like to know more about you. Please hit like so that Mr Honeysada will see this comment and consider such a video!! Yayy!! 💐🐱💐

[@sangeetamisra2816]

Nanny liked him too! How sweet.

[@lisacalifornia5498]

the cat heard about you and your kind heart from the local deers. how could he not want to get to know you. 😎

[@teenyanaontheloose]

Right 😎😎😎

[@Drewtazy]

All my cats I’ve ever had just showed up one day. I think our house is marked. I believe too that they choose us.

[@thetooginator153]

I was really impressed that Garfield sat on your shoulder! Cats only do that when they really like and trust a person.

[@georgianapunea546]

It's obvious he was looking for a family and he found the perfect one. Cats have flair at choosing hoomans😂😂Garfield is so handsome and smart💝🐱🐈😺💝

[@SEJ3333]

As the saying goes "cats choose their owners!" We got our cat in almost the exact same way! He had a family but kept leaving them and coming to us. Time and again we'd return him and he'd come back. Finally his original owners gave him to us "officially" together with a photo album containing pictures from his kitten days. The inscription written inside of the picture album read "In honor of Tequila's preferred guardians" and brought tears to our eyes. A truly selfless gesture by our beloved kitty's original owners. It couldn't have been easy to give him up. We can onlg hope that any difficulty giving him to us was tempered by the sure knowledge that my husband and I truly cherish this cat and make excellent caregivers to him!

[@chrisnizer1885]

Garfield even got to sit in Nanny's car?? That's a pretty high honor for anyone! I'm glad everyone is getting along and playing together nicely. Thanks for sharing the gang with all of us. Happy New Year to you all!

[@edunlap6594]

The way Garfield looks at you😍😍😍

[@jacquir8331]

I am going to follow Garfield's footsteps and come live on your farm! 😁 it's looks like heaven.

[@paulboyle8532]

Yes please don't send him away again. If his previous owners want him back badly enough maybe they'll come and get him. But Garfield seems to have made his choice clear.

[@kindafoggy]

I'd have to agree with Garfield that you and your place are a little slice of Heaven. A better Guardian Angel there never was.

[@evesmith3724]

Animals can sometimes tell where they really belong. From your videos, all your animals know they’re right where they belong. 💐💕

[@Ecovaluations]

It's a great honor to be chosen by a cat. 🐾🧡🐾

[@savannah58]

He knows you have a good spirit, that's why he wasn't scared

[@SandraNelson063]

Scotch's family are probably good people. They took great care of him, did all they could. But cats have their own way of looking at the world, their own set of needs. Some cats would think that the family was heaven. But Scotch need a farm, other animals, a sense of purpose. He has all that as Garfield. Garfield is a Orangecicle cat; orange popcicle on the outside, vanilla ice cream on the inside.

[@LuckyFerals]

Cat know where the good people are and how to find them.

[@Carmen-vw5rk]

Garfield knew he was home with you. Precious cat. ❤️

[@robinmorrow9023]

Garfield is a very lucky kitty! Smart, too! What’s one more, right?! I’m so glad there are people like you in this world!

[@jennygee9849]

Garfield obviously had good taste:) One of my cats Spook used to go visit all our neighbours but always came back to sleep at "home"...I think he would just check to see what was on the menu and collect a few friendly pats & share some lovin.

[@janice8523]

As they say, cats choose who they want to be with, and he chose you! He is precious, just like all of your animals!

[@whalesong999]

Yup, I have a ginger male very much like Garfield in my home and he came to me much the same way. Something so naturally peaceful with these kinds of arrangements and we enjoy every day. I love to see the postures Garfield assumes with his new keepers, smart and self dedicated. What an honor.

[@georgygirl4502]

My Beautiful Peteybird Was Layed To Rest Today. I Found Him On The Street 13 Yrs Ago. It's Better To Have Loved And Lost Than To Never Have Loved At All. We Shared So Much Joy.

[@LisaMitchellGD]

Awww if you look closely , while Garfield is on his shoulders, he's doing " the happy dance " with his paws 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐾 He's gently kneading his paws on his Dad to show how happy he is to be there 🥰

[@redpoppy7230]

Garfield definitely knew what he wanted n his sheer determination paid off. He is one very clever ginger cat, & thank YOU for letting him make his haven with you and your loving animals!

[@lindadavies6109]

What a darling boy! We had a similar looking kitty that climbed in through our bedroom window one memorable Saturday morning and took up residence with us.... the rest is history! Warm greetings from South Africa 🐾🇿🇦

[@shep9231]

A person doesn't choose a cat... the cat chooses the person... and he sees something in you that he really likes...

[@maryc6189]

My daddy taught me animals can sense the character of a person. Always held true.

[@MMm-gz6eu]

We hope to see lots of videos of Garfield and Nanny. Garfield is Beautiful and sweet just like Nanny. Please keep the videos coming. Thank you for sharing.

[@ettaplace6716]

Oh honeysada praying for your heart to be healed from the loss of your precious nanny … god bless you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️

[@RWMoortgat]

If I was Garfield I would do the same! Who wouldn't want to live in this beautiful place with such great company? :) Love your videos!

[@jenniferjaffe1781]

I am so glad that I discovered your videos;when everything seems to be going badly, it’s one of the things that bring joy!

[@DVincentW]

I hope joy continues for you, be well take care!

[@suecollins3246]

You have my cat Ho'neus! What are you doing with Ho'neus - how can she be there with you when she's here in my caravan with me! Oh it is SO lovely to hear from Honeysada again. And darling Nanny looks WELL. Life and the Blessings of Life be upon all of you! Blessings! Blessings!

[@ggsumner1947]

Garfield is truly a special cat 🐈 who may like to be in the company of your animals. It’s evident he likes you as well. I hope 🤞 all of you have a long time together. 😊

[@jessicawarland7169]

Please do more of these

[@1940limited]

I've watched this video several times over the past three years. It's amazing how a cat can seem like a part of your life and be on your mind so often.

[@lindamendenhall1797]

Just saying you've got a kind, generous person who takes in shelter and homeless animals and no doubt spends a lot of time and money on them

[@The5thNinjaTurtle1]

Cats choose you.

[@denaredford6701]

He knows a good home when he sees it .

[@u.stangl2495]

beautiful story...animals are so amazing!!

[@generalpershingm2656]

I think there's a reason why he kept coming back. Something about that other place has something he does not like, and it shows after he kept coming back over and over.

[@christypoos9728]

You have been chosen.

[@gisawslonim9716]

I've always found that if you let the animal choose you and not the other way around, it makes for the best of all possible relationships. A cat chose me at a friend's garden party ... the cat was amazing. There were about 100 people packed into that garden plus a dj with very loud music, big buffet with only the best on offer and this cat decided she was the guest of honor and therefore allowed to parade around at will. She deigned to partake of some smoked salmon from my plate, approved highly of some small shrimps and decided I would do. And that was that. She was a stray. Our friends discovered her one morning in the garden showing interest in the garbage can and she moved right in, however, these friends were great travelers and were soon off on another long voyage which meant nobody would feed the cat so I stepped in, most eagerly, and brought Sweetie home. At my friends' home she was relegated to the garden and a back terrace but not allowed into the bedrooms, in my home, once out of her carrier, she headed instinctively to the back and the bedrooms, jumping onto our bed and looking at me defiantly. I petted her to reassure her it was perfectly normal and we never regretted it. Neither I and my family nor she.

[@shuyinkim2514]

Sir thank you so much for being so kind to these cats and dogs!

[@inveritategloria]

Honeysada, I understand very well why he chose to live at your place ☺! What a beautiful cat, Garfield! Your other animals are wonderful too!

[@jaquelinemartin8683]

Oh how gorgeous he is a big ginger boy strong and handsome he goes through all that danger and kilometres to get back to Nannys house n he lives outside but he can come in any time .Garfield you are so brave. Have your happy life at Nannys house 💜

[@aureazucenaa7058]

If I was Garfield I would also gone back to that gorgeous home full of happiness and love😍😍😍

[@LisaMitchellGD]

Garfield is so beautiful. Animals are smart and can sense kindness and innocence in people and Animals . He chose you and your Family and was determined to be part of your Family . I'm so glad he is with you. That was nice of Nanny to let Garfield lay in her car 🙂 The name "Scotch " is cute , but I like the name "Garfield " better and it suits his cute personality 🥰 The way Garfield lays on your shoulder is soooooo sweet ! 🧡🤍 I know all the Animals love your accent ( Lithuania?🇱🇹 )and calm voice It's very soothing

[@jorgeruiz3224]

I relly love how u Live with the animals, perfect example how the ppl must to share the Life with them.

[@Shyblues]

Jorge Ruiz I do too !! His love for animals & nature are the reasons I follow him. Life is simple, all we have to be is kind & learn how to coexist 🔆

[@rebeccahopkins9522]

Sometimes they choose you. And there’s just nothing to be done but love them and let them in. Many animals over the years have chosen me, followed me home, jumped in my car, or showed up on my door step. I see it as a gift, not a burden, and any animal that chooses to be part of my life is part of my life as long as they want to be. Good of that other family to realize he made his own choice and the dangers he risked to get back each time was not worth trying to make him stay somewhere when he wanted to be somewhere else. He loves you. He chose you. End of story❤️BTW living life surrounded by all those wonderful animal family members is MY idea of paradise, so I can’t blame Mr. Garfield Scotch🤣

[@arnoldfossman1701]

Yes! Proof positive that cats do the real choosing.

[@Tigerman1138]

Love it.

[@mikeymike758]

WOW! You Sir are living my dream homestead. :-) If the Boss Nanny accepted him, then Garfield has found his forever home. I truly believe that animals pick us, not the other way around. Thank you so much for sharing this heart warming story. :-) Cheers, MM

[@thecelticcrone7927]

People need to realize..... It’s Not the Family Who “Picks The Cat”, It’s The Cat WHO PICKS THE FAMILY.

[@Mal-0-vent]

He knew you were the one, on your lovely homestead.

[@victrola2007]

Garfield: "I love this interview about me. Keep talking."

[@chrystalmcphee9058]

I swear the black dog look into the camera to say, Dad you brought another one home."... All your animals are gorgeous!

[@daisycassidy2448]

I hope you see Garfield again soon and that he is safe wherever he is. Beautiful cat, beautiful story.

[@jannettaktibbs7268]

I think I would choose to live there too. It is so beautiful and well maintained. Smart cat. Sorry to the family of Scotch, but he chooses the family that calls him Garfield. Easy decision to make...imho. I am so relieved to see another video from you. I was afraid you had gone on to other things. You are so talented at making these videos, it is something I hope you continue to do, I for one would sorely miss you and Nanny and all the rest of your tribe. Thank you for adding another fur baby to your tribe. He is quite lovely. Thank you also for sharing your beautiful life with us. I missed you!! So glad to see you again. Be well, be happy.

[@modtomodern]

Your property looks like my idea of heaven, can you please adopt me too? I promise to get along with everybody.
