The Purrr-Fect Christmas Gift

Transcript

There's so many of them. How are we going to choose? We're going to end up with like six cats in our apartment.

You know that, right? Sorry. Yeah, so do we just look around and then tell you which one we like? Is that how this works? Okay, perfect.

So we'll take a look and I guess check in on us in a few minutes. Awesome. Thanks.

I know we talked about this, but do we even know what we're looking for? I know we said we didn't want a kitten because kittens are destructive. So minimum, what, two years, three years? They say a kitty isn't fully grown or an adult until they're three years old.

So is that what we're aiming for? Three years? Okay.

And you like, okay, you don't have a preference. Okay, fine. I like calico kitties.

I like the colors, grays, oranges, whites all together. I like black kitties too. I had a black kitty growing up.

They're so cute. No, they're not. They're not evil.

Good Lord. The litter boxes are evil. I agree.

But I mean, fact of owning a cat, I guess. Look at this one. Oh, so cute.

Ah, this one's name is Charlie. Charlie is adorable. Why is he in a cage? The rest of them are kind of free ranging in their little pens, but he's like locked up.

Why? Oh, he has anxiety issues with the other cats. Hmm.

He's apparently on medication. Oh, poor thing. He doesn't look very happy to see us.

I'm getting a bad vibe off this cat. We need to move on. Sorry.

Is that okay? Okay. Yes, I know this is my thing, but if you like him, we can stop and chat.

Okay. Okay. Okay.

So, well, there's a black one over here. Krista. Who names these? Oh, she was born in the shelter.

Oh, she's only a year old. So, a little too young. Wait, if she was born in the shelter, does that mean she was.

.. Okay. She was adopted and then brought back.

That's not good. Oh, the family moved and couldn't take her. So, they brought her back to be rehomed.

That's sad. These kitties are all going to be here in this place for Christmas. That's awful.

We are going to end up with like six of them. You know that. Okay.

Moving on. Okay. That's the kitten pen because there's entirely too much going on over there.

Let's go this way. I don't know. I mean, there's like a little cluster of them in that one.

Let's see who's in here. I love it when they give them people names. It's very cute.

We have Norman, Marvin, and Jeffrey. Oh, they have to go together because they were brought in together. Five years old.

That's not bad. Well, they have to go together. So, we would have to get all three.

All right. I'm moving on. Moving on.

Moving on. Chill. I said one.

I will stick with one for now. Okay. Is it just me or is this place really overwhelming? I don't just mean the smell.

Although, it's actually not bad considering there's what, 40 cats in here? And it's actually surprisingly quiet. They're not making a whole lot of noise.

I thought it was going to be loud. They're just kind of chilling. I mean, cats sleep what, 20 hours a day? So, that makes sense.

But they're just kind of wandering around doing their thing and not really having issues here. Oh, what's that one? Over there.

Look. Yeah. I don't know.

I don't know if it's a he or she, but it's a little calico. Muted calico? It's like a pastel-y color.

That's really cool. I've never seen that before. Let's look.

Oh, this is the cutest one. I'm so picking it up. I don't care.

I'm picking it up. Look. It came right to me.

I'm so picking it up. Come here. Come here, sweetie.

Oh, come here. Oh, very nice. Aren't you a sweetheart? They're purring.

Are you a boy kitty or a girl kitty? I don't care. I just want this one.

Well, what do you mean they're old? I don't care. What's the card say? What? Well, that's sad.

Aw, the owner died. How long have they been here? Oh, it's a girl kitty.

Okay. How long has she been here? Seven months in the shelter? Well, that's horrible.

How old is she? Oh, that's why. Eleven.

Yeah, senior kitties don't tend to get adopted as quickly as younger kitties. Is there any health problems? Kidneys.

Yeah. Yeah, that's a common one in female kitties. But you're such a pretty baby, aren't you? Do you want to come and live at my house? Do you? Your motor's running.

Oh, as you're trying to go up over my shoulder, are you trying to get in my hair? I think this one is telling me she wants to come home with me because she's trying to get in my hair. Listen to the motor.

She has decided. What? Oh, she doesn't like anybody.

Okay, well, apparently that's not a problem. What do you mean she doesn't like anybody? She's perfectly lovely.

Aren't you? Aren't you? Yes.

Oh, well, you wouldn't be very happy if you were in this place either. No offense. I mean, it's a lovely facility.

Baby, what do you think? Well, I know she's old. But senior kitties deserve a home.

And kitties can live to be like 17 or 18. Oh, goodness. That was a good one.

Sorry, she's being very rowdy. Please, please. She's beautiful.

Look at her. She's got this like pastel color going and a very active tail because she keeps whipping me with it. Oh, she's very sweet.

Please, please, please. Baby, please listen to her. Yeah, you want to come live at my house, don't you? Yes, you do.

Yes, you do. Please. Oh, thank you.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

You're going to come live at my house. Is that okay? That tail is going to be a problem, isn't it? Yes, I'm getting whipped by a tail.

But that's okay. You can whip me with a tail every day. Yeah, you can.

You can whip me with a tail every day. Okay? Yeah, you agree? You agree? Okay.

Here, let's put you back for now. Oh, you're so sweet. Oh, you're so sweet.

Oh, you're so sweet. Oh, you're so sweet. Oh, you're so sweet.

Okay. Here, let's put you back for now. Now, is there paperwork or something that I have to do? And we filled out the adoption papers.

Oh, I have a mouthful of hair now. We filled out. Oh, what is she doing? We filled out the adoption papers already and we were approved.

So do we just fill out the paperwork specifically for her? Because it says she's already fixed. So perfect.

All right. Well, it looks like we're bringing home a kitty for Christmas.
