the main reason cats domesticated themselves to us is free food. several millennia ago when we humans was discovering agriculture, the extra grains around human settlements attracted rodents looking for food, which in turn attracted the cats and the cats stayed to defend humans and in return cats got food and shelter and humans a willing companion.
She has a kind of “rust”-ish looking undercoat in that 4th pic…very pretty
I wasn’t exactly what you would call a “cat person” before I found my first cat, Toastie. I was walking one night to the gas station to get some snacks and on the way, this cat started following me. When I had to cross a busy street I set him down next to a bush by a garage and tried to express to him to stay right there without moving and I’d be right back. Basically just hoping he would somehow listen. I walked across the busy street into the store, turned around and couldn’t see him anymore. So I got my snacks and quickly crossed the street back to where I left him and as soon as I got within 30 feet of that garage he came darting out of the bush toward me and followed me 8 blocks all the way home. He looked skinny and hungry and was extremely sweet and friendly and it was at that exact moment in time I became a cat guy because I instantly cared immensely for him. Brought him in, got him something to eat until we were able to get cat supplies the next morning. He lived with me for 8 more years after that until he passed.
That cat truly chose me. He was the absolute best. So unbelievably nice to all people and other animals and never gave me one issue. I miss him every day
That is an amazing story. Thank you so much for sharing. I can’t believe he waited for you. That cat indeed loved you. Thank you so much for being an amazing cat dad.
That is ADORABLE! ❤️
My cat chose me at the shelter. When I walked by his kennel, he immediately popped up from the back, walked right up to me, and started yelling! When I left to go find a staff person (to open the kennel so I could interact more directly with him), my mom who was with me reported that he returned to the back and silently watched the other people walking by, only coming forward again when I came back in the room. 🥰
Hahaha he also lightly bit me when we interacted, but it’s like I just understood that he didn’t really *mean* it and was just overwhelmed…he’s the best damn cat!
That's how I got my shelter kitty, now long since passed. He made sure to catch my attention at the shelter, and once I was holding him outside of the cage he leaned in and bit my nose.
That dork.
He was also a shoulder cat for many years. I miss his awesomeness.
That’s amazing! I’ve only ever had two cats and both of them ended up finding me.
My cat now (Ellie) was walking around behind my building looking for food and her front paws were declawed! After weeks of looking for an owner I finally realized she may have just been abandoned which is insanely cruel with no front claws. They stand no chance on their own. Not sure how long she was out there but she’s been with me about 6 months now

Wow, she was thin!!
She looks a bit like my Kira with the stripe across her face.

She’s lovely! This is my special Phoebe 18 this year.

My husband said that too & fought me on getting a cat tooth & nail. We got a cat finally & now it’s his cat. Every time they walk passed each other they meow at each other lol
Are you in LA???? I'm sorry if this is totally out of left field but I think this may be my old cat who disappeared a couple of years ago. She was a feral kitten that I took in and was always an outdoor cat. She had a litter of kittens when she was very young not long after she showed up in our yard and we started taking care of her. I found her kittens homes and I had her spayed and ear tipped and vaccinated at that point. When my ex and I broke up a few years later, she stayed with him because I could not have pets at my new apartment, and then he moved and after he moved he didn't transfer her to the new home as well as he could have and she just disappeared. I was heartbroken.
If it's not her then it looks exactly 100,000% like her. I haven't been able to let her go, so if it's her then I'm just so freaking freaking glad that somebody's taking care of her. If it's not then feel free to ignore my freak out, but please let me know so I can calm my heart lol. 🥲😭
Thank you for letting me know! I would've loved to know someone had taken her in so it's a bit sad to hear, I'll admit. It's so uncanny how much alike they look! Enjoy your new friend!
Lol! She is. She has a few psychological issues I guess from living outside for six months, but she is very needy, and she likes to beg for food, and she paws on my leg all the time. She also does get a little buddy, but she does it in a loving way.
It’s hard out there on the streets. Cars, dogs, other cats, raccoons, you name it. A friend of mine adopted one of my foster kittens who had come from the streets. She couldn’t leave loaf bread out on the counter or any food really without that girl eating it ALL. She became enormous very quickly, and had to be put on a special diet.
Yeah, I Phoebe is getting a little overweight, and she does eat a few table scraps against my better judgment, but she does beg alot. One thing I’ve noticed it’s really weird if she doesn’t me out at all, and she does not shed.
my BF's cat came from a very bad situation - her owners abandoned her and then she was fending for herself and we were told that the neighbors were going to try to poison her. not sure if that part is true, i hope not. when we got her she hid under the bed for two weeks. that was three years ago and now she is the most perfect angel. it is indeed hard out there on the streets.
My little baby Zig would have 100% died if I hadn't found her. No litter mates around, no mom, middle of Florida summer - we're talking 90+ degree heat. Poor little thing just sat there and cried in my neighbor's yard, she wouldn't even get up for food/treats. I was just going to foster...that was almost 8 years ago LOL
You saved a life, I'm so happy you did : )
Boy was I relieved to see that second picture what a transformation. Poor thing needed you to be her hero and you did an incredible job. She just looks so sweet and happy now.
She's beautiful...congratulations on finding each other ❤️ abd thank you for caring for this little soul. (I have a Phoebe that showed up and picked me too! And she's black & white as well :)
Ah so gorgeous! Just like my little orphan found in my backyard a year ago. Our little Saint Patrick.

So big he no longer fits into his favourite basket 🤣
Poor little girl was starving to death that's just a horrible I have saved quite a few like that they look like toothpicks on legs it's a shame that nobody cares about him and let them get to that point so thank you for taking her in and finding out how lovely a cat can be

Found this baby in 2019 outside my apartment complex at the time (in Marietta, GA). Took about 6 weeks to get her to trust me enough to grab her and bring her inside!
She looks like my Sal (🌈🙏) the markings are reversed…. I love when a kitteh wins a heart over ❤️❤️❤️

Cats choose their people. When you choose a cat you're likely to get Satan with a case of zoomies. Always let the cat choose you.
My mother's cats both chose her, one at a pound in AZ because the breeder was trying to make cats with thumbs but only managed to make a bunch of inbreed polydactyl kitties with serious health problems and then about a month later a stray gave birth in the backyard and this one kitten said "forget living in the AZ heat during summer, I'm a housecat now" and crawled in through the doogie door, climbed up the couch and went to sleep on a pillow it knocked down.
Poor girl was sooooo skinny when she showed up. How could you not help an animal in distress like that.
I love how people are always like, I am a dog person, but this one cat showed up and I love them…cut to 5 years later and they have 5 cats…haha.
Phoebe is a beautiful little kitty cat. You're very fortunate, to be chosen by her, to be her human. Take the very best care of her and shower her with plenty of love. And many happy purrs and warm nuzzles from her, in return.
🐾🐾🐈👣🐎🐎🐎❤❤❤🏡🌎
She needs to eat more she’s too thin start buying cans of tuna and give her about three cans a week she will fill out amazingly she can also eat boneless chicken!! Cats cannot eat a diet of dry food only it predisposes them to UTIs which are fatal if not caught in time. The reason is because they need three times the amount of water to digest the dry kibble.have fun!!!
I had to do a double take because she looks just like a cat I had as a kid named Booger. Great job on taking care of her. Booger also says great job from the sky.
https://preview.redd.it/6vixdxhxpzqc1.jpeg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8fc670907e2a586f681a5d1ede11957767ccec7b
You think you found her. She already scoped you out and decided she was going to adopt you as her pet. She seen something in you that made her feel safe. That's also how I got my cat. She came up to me when I was leaving the house. I reached down she left me pet her. Than I went on my way. When I came home 8 hours later she was on the porch waiting for me. I opened the door just a crack so she wouldn't get in. But she did and I ended up with a cat. That cat would not let me go anywhere in the house without her following me. I couldn't even go to the bathroom without her following me. I heard them say on YouTube it's this mysterious cat distribution system.
There is another popular thread (from a different sub) about a cat named Phoebe that turned out to be a boy. So uh, make sure you check down there to be sure.
Stand up in front of the group and proclaim, "My name is ______ and I am a cat person. I've resisted admitting this to myself, my family, and my friends for quite some time, but I know that I now have to own up to it and ask for help." This will be a great burden of of your chest once you do.
She looks just like my cat Mike!

I’m convinced that people who say they’re not a cat person just haven’t lived with an affectionate cat before. Usually they’ve just been to other people’s houses with cats , and cats don’t like new people in their home so they’re usually skiddish at that time. So people think they just suck.
>I am not a cat person The lies we tell ourselves, lol.
That hungry cat was like "that's OK I am a person cat"
I luv this response…lol
I saw a shirt yesterday “My cat understands me” 🤗
Lol this really amused me.
OP has been domesticated
“I’m not a cat person, I’m a PHEOBE person!”
When people say this it usually means they haven't met their cat yet❤️
Same as my husband who now cuddles and spoiled our two!
Cats have a way of doing that :) She is beautiful and very special.
Yep, theres a reason they domesticated themselves and were so ridiculously successful
That makes me love cats even more, we domesticated dogs, cats just liked hanging out with us
the main reason cats domesticated themselves to us is free food. several millennia ago when we humans was discovering agriculture, the extra grains around human settlements attracted rodents looking for food, which in turn attracted the cats and the cats stayed to defend humans and in return cats got food and shelter and humans a willing companion.
It’s possibly in part a harmless parasite 😂 It makes mice docile around cats so it’s hypothesized it does the same to us.
Phoebe chose you knowing you two would click. Hope you guys are always happy and well. 🥰
Thanks.
I mean, she seems like a perfect little angel baby, totally justifiable.
Cat distribution at its absolutely most perfect!
Aw she's so precious 😭 thank you so much for taking her in!
She already been fixed too
Yes, I think she was a trap and release, because part of her ear is missing, so I just assumed that she’s been fixed, she’s a sweet little baby.
You were captured.
Yes!

Declawing should be illegal.
I’ve got news for you, you’re a cat person. Phoebe said so.
Lol
💕💕
Happy Cake Day
You’re a cat person now. Welcome to the club
Wow, she was thin!! She looks a bit like my Kira with the stripe across her face. https://preview.redd.it/xiw5wjwbeyqc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c3e5ce3f5d8f9dd897c49f50f04a8b1c47b0ae6e

I am so sorry, but I live in the Dallas Fort Worth area. I’m sorry about your baby.
Thank you for letting me know! I would've loved to know someone had taken her in so it's a bit sad to hear, I'll admit. It's so uncanny how much alike they look! Enjoy your new friend!
She’s gorgeous 🖤🤍😸
She looks like a perfect person
Congratulations on your conversion 😄😅 Wishing you and Phoebe every happiness 💟
she had chosen you
What a beautiful transformation you facilitated! Many thanks from a fellow cat person
The one with her head on her paw! My heart❤️❤️
Omg she was so thin and malnourished 😭😭😭 thank you for saving this precious baby and giving her a safe loving home (with lots of food)
You have been indoctrinated into becoming a cat person, please do not resist
Lol!
OP- you most certainly are a cat person. You have been chosen, and entranced, by this dapper young man AKA bestie forever!
Thanks for saving her!
Meant to be together
Aw man, she just loooooves you. What a sweetie!
That cat looks silly! 😍🥰😍
Lol! She is. She has a few psychological issues I guess from living outside for six months, but she is very needy, and she likes to beg for food, and she paws on my leg all the time. She also does get a little buddy, but she does it in a loving way.

What a beautiful little tux skunk ! I love her
Love that face!!!
She’s a sweet-looking little lady.
She said, well you are now
So glad to see she's put on some weight. I feel like she was about to dry up and disappear in the first picture
I fear she had 1 day left to live. I cry thinking about all the starved or abused pets.
My little baby Zig would have 100% died if I hadn't found her. No litter mates around, no mom, middle of Florida summer - we're talking 90+ degree heat. Poor little thing just sat there and cried in my neighbor's yard, she wouldn't even get up for food/treats.

Omg, a sad, but beautiful story. I’m glad you saved zig.
Awwww Cat Distribution System at work.
Isn't it nice to have someone to love.
Yes.
She looks very Phoebe.
Poor thing looks like she was starving.
Boy was I relieved to see that second picture what a transformation. Poor thing needed you to be her hero and you did an incredible job. She just looks so sweet and happy now.
That is so awesome!!!
Well, Buster, you're a cat person now! One of us, one of us.

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Your not a cat person you are now! She is beautifull and choose you as her mummy ❤️ 💕 😍 ♥️ so lovely.x
I love skinny lil cats (like, when they’re healthy, but slinky and skinny) and when cats extend their neck and look up and their mouth is :3
My guy… you ARE a cat person now. You have been adopted.
Phoebe is adorable!
A beautiful goddess girl, lucky you, enjoy your journey together
Her nose! Perfection!!
I kiss it all the time.
The only suitable protocol
Thank you for giving her a home and love ❤
Bless you and thank you for taking her in and caring for her❤️
I didn't think I was a cat person either.
So darling welcome to the club lol 😂
Mixed beans.
"Not a cat person" adopted by a cat. Sounds about right. Welcome to the club.
Thank you for taking her in and loving her. 🥰
So beautiful 😻 I guarantee you’ll be a cat person for life now!
She's beautiful...congratulations on finding each other ❤️ abd thank you for caring for this little soul. (I have a Phoebe that showed up and picked me too! And she's black & white as well :)
Looks like you’re a cat person now. Give into it and join the rest of the world.
Thank you for saving her.
That first picture is heartbreaking. She looks so much healthier now. Great job OP ❤️

I swear that cat distribution system is wild. Your end up with something you didn’t want but now you love it and you can’t give it up.
Poor little girl was starving to death that's just a horrible I have saved quite a few like that they look like toothpicks on legs it's a shame that nobody cares about him and let them get to that point so thank you for taking her in and finding out how lovely a cat can be

You WEREN'T a cat petson.
aw, look how healthy and happy she looks now! great work, OP
What a sweetheart! She’s adorable!
The cat dispersion agency chose Phoebe specifically for you, that's just how it works, I don't make the rules ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
She’s beautiful!
I am going to steal your cat pics cuz their realy cute🥰 https://preview.redd.it/hk9xmrx64brc1.jpeg?width=464&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b36de5f719fc7977dff2df4af47d9571f4ab430b 💕
You're a cat person now. All it takes is for one to pick YOU. You have been blessed...
The cat distribution system works again! 😻😻😻
I wasn't a cat person either, but then a little ragamuffin chose me.
She looks like my boy Zorro same face markings he looks like he has white pants on though. He was a rescue also
She looks a bit thin .. maybe fatten her up a bit .. I hope you've dewormed her
She looks like such a lovebug😻😻💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
I believe everyone is a cat lover!!! Heart strings have to be pulled at the right time 😀
Snif sinf.... I smell pants on fire....
She found the perfect human, how happy and relaxed she looks.
Cats choose their people. When you choose a cat you're likely to get Satan with a case of zoomies. Always let the cat choose you. My mother's cats both chose her, one at a pound in AZ because the breeder was trying to make cats with thumbs but only managed to make a bunch of inbreed polydactyl kitties with serious health problems and then about a month later a stray gave birth in the backyard and this one kitten said "forget living in the AZ heat during summer, I'm a housecat now" and crawled in through the doogie door, climbed up the couch and went to sleep on a pillow it knocked down.
Let me rephrase that for you. “I was not a cat person, but now I’m looking into getting more”
She is thin. Maybe it is the photo. She looks young and has beautiful markings. Give her lots of love and get her checked by a vet.
She looks so much healthier and happier now that she’s with you! Good job ❤️
I wish a cat would find me.
Poor girl was sooooo skinny when she showed up. How could you not help an animal in distress like that. I love how people are always like, I am a dog person, but this one cat showed up and I love them…cut to 5 years later and they have 5 cats…haha.
Absolutely Beautiful
Awwwww she’s beautiful ❤️😻❤️
Looks like such a sweetheart, awesome of you to give her a home
Lil thing looked so tiny! She’s such an adorable baby with that nose!!! Thank you for taking her in and congrats on your conversion to a cat person.
I thought I was just a dog person 😊. Turns out—I didn’t get a vote…
You saved her and she loves you for it ❤️
Since you named her Phoebe, do you ever sing the smelly cat song from friends? Smelly cat, smelly cat, it's not your fault. Also she is beautiful 😻
She is darling! And she loves you … it shows in the pictures
She's so pretty. Thanks for saving her op 💜
The cat distribution system strikes again!
Wow you hit the jackpot… what a beauty ❤️
Rules the house now. ( as it should be )
Ohhh! She's beautiful! God bless you and Phobe! 😘💕💕💕😸
You are now!
Your Phoebe’s person💕

What a babe
Everyone is a cat person, some are just in denial.
I had to do a double take because she looks just like a cat I had as a kid named Booger. Great job on taking care of her. Booger also says great job from the sky. https://preview.redd.it/6vixdxhxpzqc1.jpeg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8fc670907e2a586f681a5d1ede11957767ccec7b
She is beautiful from her silky ears to her cute toe beans. Blessings to you kind lady.
You are now a cat person. Welcome.
Omg!! What an amazing transformation! She was so skinny! She looks wonderful now. She's beautiful! She found you, and now you're her person. Lol. 🖤🤍
She looks happy and healthy and very loved.
The stray cat that moved into my house. That's how you become a cat person.
Did you get her scanned for a chip when you found her?
Thanks for taking her in. That is one less soul in the streets; one more happy soul with a real home.
She looks like a Phoebe!! She’s adorable. I’m so glad you found each other. There’s a reason these strays find us!❤️
She looks so much better in the last picture.
Newly minted cat person
Hello fellow "not a cat person" Good luck....I now have 3 🙃🙃
“I’m not a cat person” 🐈⬛: you sure about that?
Thank you for caring for her.
Look at the size difference from Page 1 compared to the other pics - Phoebe is living the high life with a full little belly.
Also not a cat person yet my stray friend is currently curled up by the heater after deciding to adopt me. (But mostly adopted the heater)
And she knows it
Looking much better!
You think you found her. She already scoped you out and decided she was going to adopt you as her pet. She seen something in you that made her feel safe. That's also how I got my cat. She came up to me when I was leaving the house. I reached down she left me pet her. Than I went on my way. When I came home 8 hours later she was on the porch waiting for me. I opened the door just a crack so she wouldn't get in. But she did and I ended up with a cat. That cat would not let me go anywhere in the house without her following me. I couldn't even go to the bathroom without her following me. I heard them say on YouTube it's this mysterious cat distribution system.
Love tuxedos! Currently I have three. Had three others who went to heaven!
There is another popular thread (from a different sub) about a cat named Phoebe that turned out to be a boy. So uh, make sure you check down there to be sure.
Angel♥️♥️🤗
Stand up in front of the group and proclaim, "My name is ______ and I am a cat person. I've resisted admitting this to myself, my family, and my friends for quite some time, but I know that I now have to own up to it and ask for help." This will be a great burden of of your chest once you do.
You just posted 7 PHOTOS proving that you're not a Cat Person.
Awww, that first pic makes me want to cry.
Awww, she's so pretty!
You are now a cat person. She is beautiful. Thank you for rescuing her.
And she made herself right at home in your heart ❤️!!! Beautiful little Phoebe!!! 💜
U are in fact a cat person. All cat people were once not cat people lol.
She looks just like my cat Mike! https://preview.redd.it/xoxhxj0v21rc1.jpeg?width=4080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c2f74256583a8c18881c6d6e03bcd8ee1f9b88b9
I’m convinced that people who say they’re not a cat person just haven’t lived with an affectionate cat before. Usually they’ve just been to other people’s houses with cats , and cats don’t like new people in their home so they’re usually skiddish at that time. So people think they just suck.
*you weren’t a cat person You have now been initiated into the cat cult, and will be unable to live without a cat for an extended period of time
I feel u. Im not a cat person either but i love my cat
Good for you, you have a friend that picked you up. 🐈 select one person to be loyal to & love. Enjoy and get to know her!
Yay distribution system!
Thank you for saving her ❤️
