After They Brought Her Home From A Shelter, This Cat Can’t Stop Smiling

ADVERTISEMENT

When tiny Rey approached her future human mom squeaking, that was it. Her owner-to-be instantly felt that this shelter kitty was meant to join her family. Rey must have felt it too, she hasn’t stopped smiling since she found home!

“I wasn’t looking for a kitten by any means (we already have two!) but just had a hunch to stop by the shelter on my way home from work and found this little lady and was immediately smitten with her!” said Rey’s human mom.

“So I brought her home and it’s been perfect ever since. She’s so so cuddly and playful and her big brother and sister just dote on her and are constantly trying to groom her and play with her.”

More info: Instagram (h/t: lovemeow)

“I wasn’t looking for a kitten…but just had a hunch to stop by the shelter on my way home from work”

“I found this little lady and was immediately smitten with her!”

“So I brought her home and it’s been perfect ever since”

“She’s named after the new Star Wars leading lady and she’s my little Rey of sunshine!”

What a beautiful face! She's a lucky girl, and so is her new family. I wish all shelter stories had such happy endings. My husband and I have a favorite, standing family joke-saying -- "Let's just go SEE the kittens, Hon!" At present, we only have four, but have had as many as seven -- all indoor cats. We think that this new house is only big enough for four, so we don't look at kittens. BUT I've been hoping to get a dog. It would also be an indoor pet -- walks and dog park would be the limit to being outside. We HAVE a large yard, but I hate dogs being "put outside," as several of my neighbors' dogs are. Congratulations to little Rey -- I would love to see pictures of her as she grows up. She's going to be magnificent.

Adorable! But then I'm partial to orange cats. A great save mom, and thank you! The orange (and white. He looks like he is wearing socks, mittens and a sweater) one year old I adopted recently from the shelter I volunteer for also loves to be on his back. You have me beat with the smiling. Animals can sense, thus her smiling. She's home now! She's happy!! Bless you!!!
