My neighbors across the street left on an extended vacation and didn't make any arrangements for their cat. He was left outside to fend for himself. He was already buddies with our male cat so we left extra food for him along with our cat's food. We gave him a new name. When the neighbors returned he didn't go back to their house. He was our cat by then.

[@tragicoalex7066]

@@blacksesamecandies My indoor cat likes to take 2 steps outside to look around and one day the wind blew and slightly closed the door not shut but mostly and she almost got herself stuck under the door trying to get into that little crevice. Aside from that I'm from the area but thankfully not San Bernardino, and there's so much gang violence out there (gunshots) every night I have people tell me and you be hearing of kids catching strays or getting murdered all the time so I can't imagine the poor thing having to deal with the 4th of July and than the occasional shootout. I even had what seemed like an 15 year old boy pull a gun on me actually. There's also from what I hear some virus going around san Bernardino and cats are dying randomly for no reason everywhere.

[@Elly3981]

Years back, I moved into a house and noticed an old black cat always hanging around it. I learned from my neighbors that the cat's previous owner abandoned him when he/she moved away. As an older cat, the stray would have had a hard time competing for food with the younger ones but avoided starving because my neighbors were kind enough to keep feeding him until I moved in. The cat wouldn't let anyone else adopt him but stayed inside and around the empty house by going through a small pet door. No doubt he was waiting for an owner who would never return. It was so heartbreaking to see, so I immediately adopted the cat and named him Puma. He was the sweetest cuddlebug ever and brought me a lot of joy. Sadly, he only lived about a year or so longer before passing away from age and illness. It's been 14 years since I lost Puma, and I still miss him so much...

But she gets adopted by the same owner as Bolt so it turned out okay.

People do it to other people all the time. It shouldn't surprise anyone if they do it to their pets too.

[@Echo81Rumple83]

We're not sure if it was intentional or they were in a rush to move because eviction.

[@pattym9182]

​@@Echo81Rumple83 When I was about 7, my family got 2 young, black kittens, a brother and sister. Unfortunately my mom got them declawed at the time, but I was only 7 and thought nothing of it, and they added so much joy to everything!..... To make a VERY long story short - I was 15 in 2008 when my mom was taking the male out to some random vet like 10 miles from our house, despite several that were closer, because of a severe urinary tract infection. She used some old, giant Tupperware bin once used for toys that was pitch black with the lid on. Well the moment she got to this vet and took the lid off the box, he jumped out, ran into the surrounding woods, and he's been missing ever since, despite countless efforts to comb the surrounding woods by us AND the vet! I'm 30 now, but I STILL choke up and get SEVERELY overwhelmed when I think about my indoor, declawed cat with a pretty intense UTI running into those foreign woods, scared as could be, having to fend for himself. What hurts the most is "the unknown." I'll likely NEVER get to know what happened to him, and the thought of him trying to defend himself against a wolf, fox, bear, etc. (Pittsburgh, PA area) with his clawless paws has actually kept me up at night in the past. So honestly I just find it unforgivable to LEAVE a pet behind when you're moving, whether it's a forced eviction or you live on the beach and suddenly receive a 10 minute tsunami warning. In emergency situations, my family/loved ones are my priority, and everything else comes second, even with multiple autoimmune conditions and necessary medications. In some crazy alternate reality where I would dare choose to move somewhere that doesn't accept pets, I would make sure my cats are put in the highest rated shelter within a 50+ mile radius, BEGGING them to keep me informed when/if they get adopted. So when I hear of anyone who moved and left a pet behind AT THE VERY HOUSE THEY'VE LEFT, it just tells me that they view pets as disposable, and are also probably shallow, narcissistic, dime-a-dozen social media addicts that are the reason we have caution signs telling us water is wet.

You could tell Jupiter was an indoor cat by the condition of his fur..dirty, scruffy.

Thank you for rescuing him and to the couple for adopting him. Death penalty for the family who abandoned him!

[@chicloso7k]

OMG, I am son happy for him. I can't believe someone got rid of him.

[@bethbuzzanco304]

He is a lovely boy, I'm happy for him, he has a loving forever home. You are all very kind people. Thank you ❤❤

[@michaelccopelandsr7120]

Truly noble. Thank you and God bless.

When Jupiter squeezed between the pillows, it was as if he was saying " I am not going away again and this is now my home ". Precious baby.

[@patsypoh1995]

Such BIG hearts you all have to travel such a great distance to adopt Jupiter.

[@joannlakes]

My Maine Coon cat was a rescue. He was left behind when they moved. Lucky for him they didn't put the toilet seat down. He was part of our family for 13 years (and still is in our hearts). We miss him so and he's been gone over 2 years now. We now have a new rescue who lost (literally, it was blown away) his home to Hurricane Ian and was left to survive on his own. When we rescued him, he was highly stressed, malnourished, had a urinary tract blockage, and was skittish. He has come a long way forward but it will take time. How can people be so heartless?

[@el7jake]

How sad that he had to wait for four years before finding his forever home. But THAT is commitment: to travel so far to adopt a cat. He's set for life now.

[@ILikeCatsMoreThanILikeYou]

He definitely is. We are never letting him go!

[@StrongFlatWhite]

Relentlessly friendly. I love that 🙏🏻💗🐈

Thank God there are wonderful people to offset the scumbags that abandon a pet💜

[@patsherman9971]

I will never understand people. How can u be so cruel. Thank you for rescuing him.

[@Sweetdreamsatthebeach]

This video story just welled up my eyes with happiness. THANK GOODNESS for kind and caring animal people!!!

[@alexitselentis7904]

Weak losers do that .. Happy he found new real owners ❤

[@thebakingdiary2277]

To all the owners who left their cats behind.. you could’ve atleast take ur cat to a shelter so it could find a family agian. That neighbor sounds like a great person. It breaks my heart knowing there a lot of cats abandoned by they’re owners as a cat lover

[@decuevas244]

Wow. He was sooo good traveling. God bless everyone.

[@sylviapetricevic5592]

Jupy is one of my favs from the @catsofsanbernardino girls rescue! His beautiful gentle soul and sad eyes tugged on my heartstrings bad!! The joy of seeing him being adopted by these wonderful human beings was unmeasurable!! All l can say is: THANK YOU LORD!! 😫😭🥲🥰🙏🙏🙏✊💖💜💓

[@annavictrix]

It’s actually really great he hid behind their pillows! It probably helped him get used to their scent and associate their scent with safety.

[@natasha222]

I got my rescue the same way, but with less travel. Someone moved and left this precious kitty outside. At the shelter, she reached out and touched my arm and it was a wrap after that. She was a beautiful, sweet, cuddley companion that was with me for 15 years. Everyday I would wonder how they just left her like that, but I'm glad they did. I made sure she never felt unwanted until the very end.

[@hendrikasunqrout571]

Abandoned animals make me sob with sadness. 😭 I'm so happy he found a new home! And he looks happy with his new sibling. I pray he gets an entire Galaxy of LOVE!

[@agentmaryland1239]

What a sweet baby, the owners that abandoned him should be ashamed!

Breaks my heart that someone could leave a family member behind 😢. Thank you for caring for the precious boy and finding him a loving home! ❤❤❤❤

Thank You for saving this Lovely Kittie !! You are Good People

[@pinklavender12]

How could you love a cat at one point and just leave him behind? I don't get it. Thankful for these big-hearted humans who adopted this precious darling.

[@kadegoodgirl5498]

Thank you for saving him you guys are the real angels 😇 and former owner they’re inhumane. How could you just left him behind like that hopefully karma will gets back at your soon enough.

[@krystynach.6084]

My heart explodes when I think about this real-life fairytale ❤ he had a sad life. Then a fairy godmother in the form of caring neighbour showed up and with the help of a bunch of other godmothers of San Bernardino opened up his way and then there were his Prince and Princess, ready to travel to him from a land far, far away ❤ that's awesome

[@Gaius__]

Poor boy. He is a large fellow, but a softie. His ears tell the story of many lost fights for territory and resources. I hope he will live many happy years with his new family.

[@miriambretzke387]

the people who left a cat behind is not a good person at all! The family who adopted him and gave him love is outstanding! Congrats!

[@cattailer1077]

What a love! Thanks, you guys....all of you🥰🥰🥰

[@Xeonerable]

He's such a beautiful cat and so friendly! How the hell can you abandon that?! Thank you to the rescuers and the lovely couple that adopted him.

[@VeniceLolo]

People who abandon animals especially their pet make me sick, so glad this has a happy ending and he gets to live the rest of his life with a loving family!! He's so crazy cute how could anyone abandon that face!

[@animalrescueaj8334]

FOUR FREAKING YEARS!! I can’t believe that thank you for helping

[@KamisKisses]

Leave your pets at the vet or rescue. It is evil to just abandon them. Such a pure soul💖
