It was cold. This stray kitty chose me and napped for half an hour. (i.ibb.co)

That's not a stray cat. That's your cat now. You've been chosen. Conrats.

Thanks! Cat distribution system is working.

I kinda wish I had been chosen by a stray, instead I went to a shelter and let one of the cats there choose me so I guess it's close enough.

I've done that. I've gone to rescues and adopted a cat. I've gone to animal controls. I've foster failed. There's no bad way to get chosen by a cat. But yeah, getting chosen by a stray on the street has got to be a really special feeling.

That's also fine! It's a smaller pool but still a cat chooses you.

My last cat I entered the room at the shelter and she instantly jumped on me and climbed me, the cat distribution system knows, I miss her so much

Haha. The precious girl I ended up with bamboozled me a bit. I picked her up at the shelter and she clinged to me and started purring, then when I got her home I found out she can't stand being held. She's a smart one though, I love her.
