Adopted a House, Got a Cat for Free

So, we moved into our new place last month. Turns out, the previous owners left us a little surprise: a grumpy tabby cat who apparently thinks he owns the living room. No note, no warning—just a pair of glowing eyes under the couch on moving day. We tried finding his old humans, but no luck. Now he’s our accidental roommate, judging our furniture choices and refusing to eat anything but tuna. My partner wanted a dog, but honestly, this cat’s chaotic energy fits right in. It’s weirdly comforting to have a pet that came with the house, like a furry, passive-aggressive welcome mat. Anyone else inherit a pet along with their mortgage? Because I’m starting to think he’s the real landlord here. #PetStories #AdoptDontShop #CatLife #Pets

That's sad but happy at the same time. I'm glad this kitty got new owners. This could have ended bad for the cat. I'm glad everything worked out in the end!!

Screw this
You can look at it this way too......Maybe the kitty didn't "want" to go with them and hid so they wouldn't find it. So "you're" on probation, be good to kitty. Introduce to some new food, tuna isn't good for cats except for a now and then treat. You could start with tuna flavored cat food if necessary to wean off the tuna. I would say you have been chosen. Are you sure the cat didn't wander in while you were moving in? Any-who.....congrats on your new roommate 🫶

The cat is the real owner of the house. He just keeps you there to serve him. 🥰
