As fun as it may be to adopt as many cats as possible, you have a responsibility to your current fur baby before you adopt another.

The hooman in the story below does not take the honor the cat distribution system bestows upon her very lightly. Everyone who has even been graced with a cat by the system knows how lucky they are, and how important the role they were given is. It's not just about finding a cat and keeping it; it's about making sure that little baby is going to have the best life with a furrever family, whether it's you or someone else you find.

Another major thing to remember when you're chosen by the cat distribution system is how a new cat is going to affect your household. If you're a pet enthusiast, the system might grant you a cat while you already have furry companions in your home. It's one thing to adopt a cat when it's just you, but if you already have fur babies of your own, bringing in another one is a decision you have to be 100% sure about. Some cats will accept a sibling in a heartbeat and would be thrilled to have a furever friend, but some might not be as happy about a new family member. They deserve a say in the matter.

These thoughts were all part of the adoption process of the tiny kitten in this story, who was brought in after days of crying outside. She needed help, and the hooman who found her could not ignore that, but it was also important to the hooman to know that her dog and cat already at home would be okay with this change.
