This is pretty much how I was adopted by all of my 3 cats growing up. :D All strays, all followed me home. They adopted me. I had no choice. ;) <3

Awww! Such a beautiful story, with a happy ending. ^_^

Socks has an instagram account!! XD https://www.instagram.com/aladynamedsocks/

The first cat my wife got out of college, she got approximately that way. There was a toddler and a six, maybe eight month old cat completely freaking out across the street -- the toddler was screaming in terror doing basically the HOME ALONE face, terrified by a tiny kitty who was hissing back at him. One person scooped up the terrified human, my wife scooped up the terrified kitty, petted it, and calmed it down. Naturally, the cat started following her. When they got to the major intersection, and my wife got worried about what would happen if she crossed the street with the cat following, she turned around and walked back home. Went back in, and told her roommate, "It followed me home, can we keep it?" When I started dating my wife, it became VERY clear that, if Boopsie didn't approve of me, Lis and I were not gonna happen. Fortunately, Boopsie liked me almost as much as Lis did, so Lis and I are married now. Boop's been gone for at least fifteen years, and I miss her still.

what a lovely story and the Panic At The Disco reference in her name is nice too

yup, this is how it happens. my poor husband is allergic to cats...so we only have 3. He doesn't mind sneezing all the time and being stuffed up b/c he says it's so worth it(and he won't take medication for anything)

Aww that is so adorable.... So he is keeping Socks then? So cute!

From he to she...a nice transformation 😂😂😂.That guy is pretty open-minded.

Wait, so socks is staying with him? Or with his colleague from work?

Update.... pleeeeease......

Connor made a friend. ^_^

Socks owned him the moment he named her and it's so cute he doesn't have a clue.😄

This story put a smile on my face and in my heart. In a world with so much cruelty....it's nice to read a story with a happy ending. To trust a stranger...this kitty had to sense something special about Connor! At one time...this baby had a home! There are too many heartless people that want a pet and then don't want the responsibility that goes with ownership. People move away leaving their pets behind....monster neighbors will dump your pets leaving them helpless to feign for themselves....starve and physically abuse them! The same to come back on them. But sometimes....especially during cold weather....cats will find their way into a car motor and if lucky enough to survive...will often run off when the car stops! That's why I prefer keeping my furbabies inside! Imagine...more ppl doing what Connor did for this kitty! If people were responsible enough to get their pets altered...there wouldn't be unwanted babies...and knowing they have feelings like humans! Thank you Connor!

Im so glad the kitty got a home

You were chosen. That's how people get cats.

This is the happiest post EVER! I love a happy ending...Shut up I'm not crying, I have something in my eye!!

awww cuty cat

Give Socks Desiree a bath. I'm allergic to all kinds of fur. I adopted an unwanted cat 22years ago as a kitten. Noosh had a bath once a week. No allergic probs . He was my best mate. Passed away last year. Missing him awfully.

This post put a smile on my face that will last me the rest of the day!

It may sound weird but it's been going on for years and you can also find tons of books and vids about the subject. It is urine therapy. It's supposed to reverse your allergies, I have tried and my oldest is dangerously allergic to latex, last time she had a reaction, I have her several of her own urine and that was it, it worked, I had the benerdril ready but wasn't necessary. Google it...

this is our sassy binx who just showed up in our yard one day 2 months ago...he's ours now 20171001_1...ae8ff2.jpg

I wish I could get a cat. I am too allergic. :-(

Best story ever.

Connor you're awesome

I downvoted because the term "escalated quickly" is massively overused and I'm getting sick of it.

Aww

Because he's a scumbag; and all the people people who are down voting me are scumbags, too

F**k allergies!

Sounds like Connor's become a cat person.

So i am confused. First he can't keep her because his allergic reactions than he keep her anyway? Great guy.

I thought that someone else took the cat ???........ Sometimes allergies can be managed with some tactics: stroke the cat in the direction of away from you, so you don't get the cat hairs...... always wash your hands after being with the cat....Brush the cat daily - always stroking away from yourself to reduce random hairs....etc

Allegra works well against cat allergies.

If it wasn't so inappropriate I'd announce that I may have spontaneously fallen in love with those two, but since I shouldn't be so forward I'll simply say: F'ing hell, you two are cute! Please adopt me too!

THIS IS JUST A WONDERFUL STORY! THAT CAT DESERVES, AND NEDED, A WOBDERFUL HOME WITG SOMEONE WHO WILL LOVE IT AND TAKE CARE OF IT! SO GLAD YOU KEPT HER!

Get an allergist.

How the f**k do I get downvoted??? He stated he didn't feed her for one night that is animal neglect ---like wow he doesn't deserve her- That's so f****d up how do u not give it scraps of meat from your fridge or something until you can buy cat food, which I'm sure he buys the cheapest and shittiest kind ne cause he
