In a bustling pet store filled with hopeful animals, one particular feline stood out. A six-year-old tabby cat named Missy sat in her enclosure, her bright green eyes scanning every visitor. She had been waiting for two weeks for someone to take her home, and today, she had a feeling that something special was about to happen.
Just as she was beginning to doubt, the door swung open, and a woman named Lara entered with her young daughter. The store was filled with wagging tails and hopeful meows, but Missy knew she had to stand out. With an excited leap, she pressed her paws against the glass, purring loudly in an effort to capture their attention. She wasn’t just waiting for a home—she was ready to choose her family.
Missy’s enthusiasm caught the attention of Lara’s daughter, who stepped closer, her face lighting up with excitement. Missy instantly recognized a connection. She became even more animated, tapping on the glass, seemingly pleading, “Pick me! I’m the one!”
The sign next to Missy’s enclosure listed her traits—affectionate, social, and talkative. But words weren’t needed; her actions spoke loudly. Lara watched as her daughter giggled, touching the glass back in response to Missy’s playful taps.
Missy’s charm proved irresistible. Lara’s daughter turned eagerly to her mother, pleading, “Mom, can we take her home?” Lara smiled but explained they needed to check with Dad first, who had just entered the store.
The family gathered around Missy’s enclosure, watching as she continued to show off her playful, loving demeanor. They were already falling for her, envisioning the joy she would bring to their home. When they asked if they could fill out the adoption paperwork, anticipation filled the air.
The waiting period for approval felt long, but the excitement never wavered. Then, the phone call came with the news they had hoped for: “Congratulations! Your application for Missy has been approved!”
When they returned to pick her up, Missy was already waiting by the door of her enclosure. The moment it was opened, she leaped into Lara’s arms, purring loudly, her tiny body vibrating with joy. She had finally found her people.
@laraestevens She chose her people. Welcome to the family, Missy.
