A message anyone reading this comment. On r/animals I created a post compiling all the animal fundraiser I've seen in recent days, the title is "Animal fundraisers, feel free to share your own!", in case you want to look it up. The most urgent is Sly's, the cat of an elderly woman is in dire need of your financial help. A GoFundMe has been set-up but it isn't going well. I can't post the link but by searching up 'Help Ali Save Her Beloved Cat Sly' on the searchbar you'll find it. Any help would be appreciated! Note: This is not written by me, I just wanted to spread the message. I've been copy-and-pasting this in the comments of other videos to further spread it.

Taking care of seniors is our duty, human and cat both.

[@tanastoiberg7981]

😅I agree 💯%! Senior cats have lots of love still left in them, and they deserve to have a good home. Also, senior humans should not be treated like an afterthought. We have lots of knowledge and wisdom that have been gained throughout our lives. The youth can learn quite a bit from the older community. It is a branch leading to the next generation and the values going forward. 👫🧓👵🤲💝❤️

I agree. I have a 20 yr old kitty and a 13 yr old kitty and they are so special to me. Love 'em both with all my heart.

[@TheHiredGun187]

Yeah...my wife rescued a senior Maine Coon from a life in my sister-in-law basement back in 2010. "Gizmo" became my shadow. We thought we had lost him...but I heard his meows from our "basement" (a crawlspace under our apartment that had pipes and was about 28in in clearance) I had to go down to replace a pipe and he snuck in and I didn't see him. Locked up and went looking for him. 2 Years later I did something that today is legal in my state. I wound up in jail overnight and had to explain to a jail booking nurse about long not deep scratches on my hands and forearms. She asked me if I was a "cutter"... I laughed and said "no I just have a rough neck Maine Coon cat". The nurse almost chocked laughing so hard. she explained she has rough neck Maine Coon. She passed me on the psych exam and I did not have to spend the night in Don't kill myself cell

Mr Bo probably never has received so much love and attention in his life. Congrats.

[@christinadavid9139]

We adopted a senior cat Edgar. He was 17 or even much older. They told us maybe he will have a Christmas, but he made it till after easter. The next one Bibo had heart problems, he came from a hoarder house, they didn't even knew how old he was. He out lived his diagnosis at the moment by 9 month, our vet told us he will maybe live two weeks at most.

I just adopted a senior kitty 11 1/2 years old and she is a wonderful companion. The shelter I got her from didn't have a back story as to why she was surrendered but she had been adopted once and brought back after 2 months because she was timid and hiding all the time and their cat was picking on her. She was back at the shelter for 1 week and I saw her and adopted her. She is doing great and I don't have any other pets so it is nice and quiet and she is having the time of her life. 🥰😻🐾💖

[@Uncommonsensesc]

When a person returns an animal, I always wonder about the adopter and not the pet! You don't know how they treated the cat/dog, who else was around the pet (were there kids or other adults or other animals who aggravated the pet?), what the living/sleeping arrangements were or what did the failed adopter expect (realistic or stupid). I never look at the pet as a failed adoption, but I do look at the person as a failed adopter! I'm so glad you have the patience and love for her!

How sweet. We have never chosen any of our cats. Two of them were found abandoned by their moms and we bottle fed them. Two we took in when the owners moved or passed away. Another one followed my niece home and we ended up with him. We've always relied on the cat distribution system. Someday we'll pick our own. 😊

We've relied on the cat distribution system as well. Bottle fed kitten from the backyard, rescues from the front porch, and two sweethearts from a parking lot. The system has worked purrfectly and given us the best kitties we could have ever asked for. 🥰🐱🐈‍⬛🐈

[@P5YcHoKiLLa]

"they changed their mind", what is wrong with people? Make the decision BEFORE getting the cat, it's not an iPhone, it's a living, sentient being. If you don't think you can give an animal a good home, if you can't afford the food and vet's bills, i.e. you can't afford to care for it, then don't get it. It's that simple.

YES it would!!! I use to work in one. I think it would help a lot of the residents. Especially the ones who have no family or family won't go visit them. I would stay late visiting them.

I have end stage kidney failure and on dialysis waiting for a transplant, but I have no living donors. I have a senior cat named Munchie who I've loved for 18 years now, as terrified as I am to lose him because I know that day is coming I'm beyond terrified of that thought of what will happen to my boys. I have another cat, Yoda, who can be spicy and moody. If you don't know his signs, he will swat at you, and I know cats like that generally don't get adopted either.

I am sorry to hear of your condition and hope you get the best help you can and hope it works out in the end. Since you do know that you have limited time, you can start to find someone to take them in in the case you do not make it. so they get used to the other person as much as possible and vice versa. Then have something settup so in the event that you do not make it, they are taken care of immediately.

[@trixie898989]

I have it written in my Trust that should I become hospitalized, etc., my friend will take my furbabies into their furever home. This friend is written into my Trust to receive a large enough check to take care of them for the rest of their lives. I have no human children or family so this was an ideal solution. This was a wonderful idea that I was actually told about by the attorney helping me with my Trust. Being worry-free about your furbabies future is so stress-free.

As one who’s adopted a couple seniors over the years I can 100% say do it. Their personalities are set, bad behavior has aged out..cats gain wisdom like humans as they get older. They tend to be very very low maintenance since senior cats sleep like kittens and generally just wanna cuddle.

[@Uncommonsensesc]

Oh, Torties just rule! We were adopted by a Momma Tortie years ago. She interviewed us for 2 weeks then moved her 5 babies to our house. We got them all fixed with her and 3 of them (2 boys, 1 girl) deciding that being house kitties was a good job. We lost her 3 years ago on Thanksgiving to cancer and I can still feel how she felt in my arms (she liked being held like a baby and cradled) and sounded (when she moved inside, she'd sleep so sound that she snored). I miss that little girl like crazy!

[@Eoin-B]

I inherited my two dogs too. Puppy Dog and Kieran. One is 8 and the other is 16+. They are set in their ways though and it took almost a year for the two to bark and jump in circles in excitement when you come home. Unfortunately, they don't like to be hugged so obviously Francie never did that, plus all the worms and fleas when I took them in, Francie did sleep in the same bed as them their whole lives so he had them too and just didn't mind all these years. I suppose he was set in his ways too. You forget that it's only in the last 50 years that we could get rid of fleas.

[@abprairiegurl]

It's too bad there isn't a way for seniors to keep their pets in retirement homes. It would probably help their mental health.

This whole video is a compilation of cats that have their own separate and individual The Dodo videos, including the My Grandfather’s Cat one.

[@conejita]

I thought it was very cute but I agree especially because we need to spread awareness about cats going into second homes after their primary owners pass. So many cats go into shelters due to death of owners and lack of responsibility from family members or those who cant take them like this. It’s so important that people plan for their pets future you never know what can happen. And senior pets deserve a forever home and happy end!

[@littlecatfeet9064]

⁠​⁠@@conejitaThat’s how I got my sweet Sally. Her original Mum was put into a nursing home and died soon after. Then I adopted her, traumatised, from the shelter. She’s very obsessed with and possessive of me, so I have a plan for her future should I not be in it a few years from now or tomorrow. Having said that, this is just a lovely video showing the Cat Distribution System at work. Anything that shows that cats are for everyone is a good thing.
