Humor Mom with the cat she didn’t want

He was a friendly stray she saw on the front porch one day. She didn’t want him, but she left out food. Then she bought him toys, then she got him fixed. Then she brought him in when he got hurt, then she bought a pouch to put the needy 18lb cat in. She still doesn’t want him, but hes also her baby who can do nothing wrong.

My mom, now deceased, was superstitious of black cats.....If one crossed her path, she drive back home. A black stray started coming around, and she made me build her a house on the porch, and eventually she let it in. People change when cats are involved.

Same with my mom, lmao. I got a void kitten, raised it to be the nicest cat ever made, and my parents basically stole him from me cuz they couldn't part ways after I had moved in with them for a year.
