Cat Hops Onto Lap of Girl in Wheelchair and Chooses Her to Be Family

He crawled right up onto her and snuggled..

A cat who was found as a stray, hopped onto the lap of a girl in wheelchair and wouldn’t let go, writes fsrn.

A few weeks ago, Chris Poole, who has been rescuing and caring for community cats in his area, noticed a new face in the neighborhood. A blue-eyed feline showed up one day to join the feast amongst other cats, and came back a few days later.

The new cat on the block might have been wandering the streets for some time.

Over the weeks, the kitty slowly warmed up to his food provider and became increasingly talkative as he lowered his guard.

Then an even bigger breakthrough came when I introduced him to catnip and silver vine: Chris shared. He would roll around and let me pet his belly and generally have a good time.

That’s when Chris knew the cat belongs in a good home, and decided to find a rescue to help the deserving feline. Suncoast Animal League (in Palm Harbor, Florida) quickly stepped up. With help from some silver vine, the friendly stray went into a humane trap, and bid farewell to life on the streets.

After months of searching and many shelter visits, Kiley finally found her perfect feline friend.

Sinatra is now a full-time lap cat. As soon as Kiley wakes up in the morning, he’s there ready to love and to be loved.

It is like he has been a part of the family ever since he got here. He sits in her lap in the wheelchair as she does her schoolwork and snuggles her throughout the day.

It is just cuteness overload here!
