Many years ago my dad and I set a couple of chairs in the open barn door and started discussing the worlds problems. Then, a half grown kitten came around the edge of the house, spotted us in the barn door, and walked right up to us. As plain as day, he asked if he could stay, and how could we say "no"? Well, that was "Fugi", and he was a Godsend! One of the best cats I've ever known! 😊

And those that stayed, I've always got a special bond. They live forever in my heart. ❤❤❤ Thank you for this beautiful story. I fell asleep with this warm feeling in my heart. And a smile.

I had to comment, this is exactly how I acquired my Tabby cat Morris. He just showed up one day and I didn’t want another animal, so I just ignored him and did my thing each day but he just hung around and never left. After 2 weeks, I gave in and let him in. He has been the best cat ever since. The funny thing is, he showed up exactly 1 year to the day my dog passed way. I call him my Angel cat. ❤️

I'll be honest... since I've never listened to anything like this, I listened to it while I was still wide awake before bed, because I was afraid there might be some weird subliminal messaging or hypnosis or something. You never know these days with all the craziness. 🤪😵💫 I was pleased to hear a simple and sweet story. I feel quite relaxed having listened right before bed. It's better than watching mindless videos or thinking about all the madness in the news lately. Thank you for this! 🥱😴💤

I was a carer for my late Mum for 8 and a half years. One time in May, my Mum was really poorly, and taken to hospital. It was warm days, during that time l had the windows open. One day a thin, stray black and white cat jumped into my living room. She became my Coco. A beautiful cat, who people say was an angel that looked after me, when l was at my saddest. She went back to heaven in August. I miss her every day. 💔

I’m not a cat person, we’ve always had dogs, but I just love reading all the comments and people’s stories. Definitely, animals come into our lives for a reason and sometimes at personal significant times. My little dog came into my life during a time of great crisis of life changing events. I found her in a dog shelter, a little scrawny thing, so sad with depression. I was experiencing clinical depression, so we understood each other well. We helped each other heal slowly but surely to full health, happiness, and new adventures. Sadly, after 13 wonderful years of so much fun and love, my little darling left me to chase rainbows in the sky. I have never taken another dog, it wouldn’t feel right as I still see my girl in the house and she still makes me smile.

This story and the one about the man and his dog are my favorites. I listen to them over and over again. I like the slow lifestyle in small villages or countryside. The cities make me think of bright lights, sirens, and busy streets. That's not very relaxing. The country cottages in or near a village is very relaxing. I am also in favor of stories of dogs cats that befriend lonely individuals who change their attitude toward life. I can see all the stars in the night sky now, not overshadowed by street lights. I do hope you will write more that give a sense of peace, tranquility, and encouragement from helping a feline or pup find love from someone who has so much to give.

I confess, I like him very much. He was the biggest baddest cat in the neighborhood and now he’s old and needs a little help and understanding. He pees in my house plants and when I feed him I have to remind him to eat. He forgetful.

Oh, I know that longing. My hubby was allergic to cats too, and it was so hard to not have one in the house because I’d always had one. I used to take our daughter to the animal rescue to play with the kittens - the staff loved volunteers that helped to socialize them, making it easier for them to get adopted. Anyway, he was allergic to lots of things which led him to taking allergy shots for about 3 years. And, he was cured of the cat allergy! He never became a cat lover - and he limits me to 2 cats at a time, LoL - but, we always have one that simply adores him. It’s so funny.
