‘The universe had other ideas’: They bought their dream house, but it was the cat who came back to it that made it truly feel like home

Talk about purrfect timing! One year ago, this proud new homeowner was just settling in with two kids and a promise. Once the budget bounced back, they’d adopt a cat. But the universe clearly didn’t want to wait. One night, a determined feline showed up at their door, meowing like she already had the keys. Within seconds, she’d claimed the house, leaping from counters to cabinets like a fuzzy parkour champion. Turns out, Angel (as she’s now lovingly called) had been abandoned by the home’s previous owner and she stuck around waiting for her real family to move in. She may have started as a stowaway, but now she’s the queen of the castle, complete with her own bed on the cabinets and two kitten sidekicks to rule alongside her. From stray to spoiled, this is one glow-up story for the hiss-tory books. Sometimes you don’t choose the cat. The cat chooses you (and your mortgage). Is your inbox feline too professional?

21 Furtastic Pictures of Cattos Casually Sitting Like Hoomans and Forgetting They’re Not People

Cats have many talents: napping anywhere, knocking things off counters, and giving side-eye sharp enough to cut glass. But perhaps their funniest hidden skill is sitting like hoomans. You know the pose: belly out, back slouched, back legs splayed like a tiny couch potato. Suddenly, your sophisticated feline transforms into a furry roommate who looks like they’re waiting for the next episode of their favorite show. It’s endlessly amusing because cats do it with such nonchalance. One minute they’re grooming, the next they plop down with paws resting on their belly like they’re contemplating life’s big questions. “Why no snacks yet?” or “Do I really need to chase that red dot?”These awkward yet adorable positions turn our regal furballs into comedy gold. No matter how majestic a cat usually acts, the hooman-sit brings them back down to earth. From tiny loafs to full-on recliners, these cattos prove one thing: they may not pay rent, but they’ve mastered the art of lounging like the rest of us. Is your inbox feline too professional?
