Isn't it wonderful when a cat realizes he is loved?
This woman has so much understanding and patience !
Right
Such dedication & compassion ❤
Their perfect family is out there and whoever is lucky enough to get these boys will be very fortunate.
They look so incredibly happy together. Definitely a rescue success story.
There are some things that only another cat can give a scared rescue. Good to see these two found each other.
Sometimes all you need is a friend
I get by with a little help from my friends
I get high with a little help from my friends.
Gonna to try with a little help from my friends.
Do you need anybody??
This stuff makes me cry. So lovely and the people who care for these cats like you are Angels.
There isn’t an animal that can’t be saved given enough patience, resources, and understanding of what they need. Love is powerful medicine. 💕
You are a special person to be so patient and stay with this difficult cat. Your care made him open up to new possibilities.
Grey is absolutely beautiful!
They would be foster fails. They are so gorgeous and adorable. I couldn’t give them up.
This was such a sweet story! 🥹🤍🤍🤍
This woman is an ANGEL.
Amazing transformation! It’s heartwarming to see how love and patience can change a life. 😻
I hope they adopt those guys together! They are bonded now and will greatly benefit from staying together 💜
She made it clear that they will TOGETHER to the right home. ;0)
Thank you for your patience with Grey, and more so for the brainwave to find him a kitty friend. They look great. Best wishes for a loving home for the bonded cats.
I had had a similar experience with 2 adopted stray cats (sisters). They spent the first 2 months living under my bed (except for the necessary time to use the cat sand litter). Since then, by the time, they have become very friendly both with us and dogs. They simply needed time to adapt and feel safe
Beautiful transformation!
A while back, I brought in two terrified, feral, hissing cats from outside, they completely transformed once they saw my friendly orange tabby. Cats are social and look to others for cues on how to act and to check safety of environment. When the feral cats saw how happy and confident and healthy my orange cat was, it made them instantly feel comfortable. And when they saw me loving on and petting him, they came nervously running over wanting love from me too. Now they are friendly, social, love bugs. Animals and people can transform with a little time and love. And a friendly, social house cat can be a great tool for helping to heal fear and aggression in a feral or stray or abused cat (spay or neuter first)
Animals can, for sure ... humans - well .......
You have an ambassador cat! I do too; they're the best! Mine helped me tame a rescued breeding dog that had never lived in a house before.
You're a goodess, oh an ear infection is painful, love from Montreal and thank you very much! 😊
I’m glad they found this lady and each other!
As long as the 2 buddies get adopted out together, everything will be alright.
Amazing story and an amazing transformation! All Grey needed was kindness, patience and love, first from his foster Mom and then from Philly. Grey and Philly MUST be adopted together! 😇😇😇🐈🐈⬛🐾🤪💗🏠
Thank you for taking the time and patience to help this sweet baby
Five gold stars to this lady and her resident kitty.
Thank you angels ❤❤❤
Wow you stuck with him and that makes a whole lot of difference many people wouldn’t I’m so proud that you did and the other little kitty got a soul mate, believe me you did a great job 👏
Thank you for what you do🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Beautiful work, this lady❤
LOVE!!!
Bravo, magnificent job 🤗
So beautiful!
♥ Awesome work that you do helping these cats.
Sweet cattens.
What a great pair of cats, and of course they shouldn't be separated. I adopted an older pair of cats like that too. They were too bonded to separate, so they were adopted out together. Squeaky and Dez were so cute together. The slept together constantly and also groomed each other. Dez was a chunky calico, and Squeaky a slim and very anxious long hair black cat. Squeaky just worshiped the ground that Dez walked on, but was nervous around people. It was hilarious to see the way they acted. Nothing phased Dez, she was so sedate, and then their was Squeaky's adorable neuroticism. Sqeaky would squawk for attention, but when you reached for her, she'd cower in fear or run half the time. It used to make Ron laugh so hard. She would come and lay on us on her own terms. i guess we were safer if we were laying down or something. I can't describe the hero worship she had for Dez though. She just looked at Dez w/ utter adoration and Dez was her ultimate happy place.
Love conquers all.
I’ve had 4 feral cats. With a little time and patience they all have become sweet, gentle fur babies. One lived to 17 and the other to 19. The other two are currently 3 years old. 😻
Animals are like babies. Babies can’t speak just like animals can’t. Yet, you don’t see parents throwing babies out in the street when they’re hurt, sick or having a bad day. Fur kids deserve patience and care too. 🥺🥲
Beautiful 😻 thank you for sharing 🙏.
GREY IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL TABBY CAT ……..❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Awesome 👏
Thank you.
Such a sweet story
Wonderful story. Yes, even the most wild cat can become a nice pet. I have adopted many stray cats and once they are spayed or neutered, and given love they will become wonderful pets.
Lease keep them together no matter what
Cute Cats!! ♥️🙏
Ma sha Allah MashAllah
Really Great! Bravo to you for all your hardwork, love and patience. I hope you keep them.
Cat is very cute ❤
Thank you
So cool their transformation.
Yes, I am in your house eating your food but don't touch me! I had a cat like that; couldn't give her away for the world.
❤❤❤
He opened his heart and found love!
Great story. Thanks for your love and patience. Grey is a pretty boy.
I am so grateful that there on people on this planet with the patience of a saint with rescue animals, and yes unfortunately with people. 😊😻😻😻 What a wonderful vid. TY TY
I worked with a cat like that for 18 months. He had been surrendered because his elderly owner had to go into assisted living. He was so traumatized by the whole surrender. He was so aggressive he bit a volunteer who needed stitches. No one could even remove food from his cage or change his litter box. I sat outside his cage for months on end, not looking at him and just talking out loud. It was such slow progress, but eventually he came out of the cage, although he ran back in as soon as I looked at him. It got to the point, finally, where he jumped on my lap and allowed me to pet him. Eventually, he was adopted into a really good home.
Wow!! Beautiful ❤
OMG there's another cat here - freeze frame at 115 - perfect timing with the audio narration. Feral cat turns and literally says, OMG, there's another cat here! I do read lips, EPIC
Things like ear infection can be very painful, and that's why they're aggressive.
We have a grumpy cat that hissed and growled at everything... except her kitten brother. We had to keep them together, but he died of a kidney disease... its taken her a while to warm up to the new addition we adopted from the shelter, but its definitely not the same bouncing off the walls playing at all hours of the day relationship anymore.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yeah, that was a tough rescue. I think the winning ingredient was that the Angry One, the Tabby, was a boy. Tom Cats look for buddies. If it were a female, well, the girls can be intrinsically a lot more territorial. I once had a Rescue blow up in my face. I was trying to bring in a female feral from the parking lot, a year after I had some success bringing in Calico Peggy who had been the previous Parking Lot Cat, probably the mother of Angie who I tried to rescue. I gave Angie her own room, but she would find or make some cat cave, being territorial against me. After a month Angie began coming out more and so I took down the barrier and she had run of the whole apartment. Calico Peggy wanted nothing to do with it, and so one time I opened the door and Peggy took off. I had loved Calico Peggy, and so I threw Angie out with the hopes that Peggy would come back. So I lost them both. Yeah, Feline Rescue is difficult and sometimes you lose. It'll make me cry to tell you, but, well, the cats can lose hard too. Peggy died. She had moved down to a territory including an Apartment Complex managed by a Korean Lady, and I was once Peace Corps Korea and so I remembered some Korean, and the Lady knew some English. Peggy was in her Territory now and so she would put out food, and encourage me to take Peggy back, but Peggy would escape. Then tragedy struck... Peggy got her back broke somehow, and the Korean Lady came and told me. I took Peggy to the Vets to euthanize her, but she died in my arms while we waited. For a while I was feeding Angie outside, but I think that Angie got shut into an empty apartment by work men, and must have starved to death. Yeah, if only they had both gotten along, they'd be part of my multicat household today, but females come with problems. But I really did love those two and so it breaks my heart.
The home cat told the newby the news; no more prowling the streets eating garbage, and a warm blanket to sleep. Then newby realized it was cool.
It's like Pokey was Grey's interpreter.

Most cats are social and want other cats around. Very few cats should be in single cat only homes.
My last cat, a sweet beautiful tabby stray who adopted me, couldn't stand other cats being around. It's a reason she chose to live at my house, to get away from other cats in my neighborhood.
@@lloydhlavac6807 That probably means she was separated from her litter mates early. They really do do better when they're raised together. I foster a lot of kittens, and it's always hard to have a single. They're so sad and lonely. Sometimes it can't be helped though, but it's best to pair them up.
@@krisniznik3953 Unfortunately I never knew her back story, where she came from, etc. She was super friendly, and even jumped up into my lap as I sat in my van the first night we met. She looked well fed, and she had already been spade, but no clipped ear like a TNR, and I never saw any signs up for a missing cat, so I couldn't help but think someone dumped her. A vet estimated she was only 2 or 3 years old when she first showed up. But yeah, she could not stand other cats. A neighbor couple took care of her at first, but when more strays showed up there I discovered she was sleeping up against the front on my house at night, to get away from them. Once I adopted her, and she realized my yard was her yard, and this was her home, she'd chase off other cats that trespassed. But she always seemed pretty happy, and had human company. Oh, and thank you very much for fostering kittens. I volunteered at a local no-kill cat shelter for a while.
Bop told Grey that Jen was one of them and she could be trusted and Grey was flabbergasted. And then Bop told Grey that he should make friends with Philly Pokey because they seemed perfect for each other. So that's what Grey did after Jen introduced him to Philly Pokey. And now Grey snuggles with Philly Pokey and Jen, too, because now Grey knows that Jen's OK after all.

They're so precious but I REALLY wish those sweet boys didn't have to go through another traumatic experience with moving into yet another home. They don't understand that they're in foster care and they have given their hearts to their current caretaker. While I understand being able to "foster fail" isn't possible all the time, in this case there is no way I could let them go, they would be MINE. And that is why I can no longer foster cats. 😄
Hi I'm your new friend🎉❤😊😊🎉😂❤❤
What happen to Bop? 1:10
Yin & Yang.
what do you mean "cats that can't be saved"? there's no such thing, they just need enough love and proper handling
this is me. i'm that cat. i lack friends and love, so i am avoidant of people, and snap at anyone trying to approach me. i hide. but i need someone . but i'm like this cat. i need help, but i still avoid people.
They do talk to without us knowing…Im sure pokey told grey that its going to be ok…..
Just don't force anything, let the cat be until it trust you.
I think you should change Philly Pokey's name to "Philip". He deserves a less silly name. He's a wonderful being, not a silly being.
He likes being _petted,_ not pet.

I love these sassy babies
He doesn't know English.
gay cats!! 🏳🌈 how cute.
Thank goodness they found you! They are so precious together. I want the laws to change so that people get fined and put in jail for letting their cats run outside unattended. There should never be this many feral cats running about. It’s sickening.
Such an amazing story.
❤❤❤
