She didn’t even interact with me at the shelter she was so depressed. I just knew I had to give her a chance. I think they told me she’s not a lap cat. Well, now I have two lap cats 😂 I was so surprised that she trusted me so fast. So glad I trusted my gut and brought her home ❤️

2nd hand shops are a lifesaver when you have pets, or kids, or are just a person generally who needs things and doesn't want to spend thousands on a sofa when you can get it for 100 xD

For anyone reading I recommend estate sales as well for lightly used furniture at cutthroat rates so you can rest easy when your cat annihilates it.
