Elderly Cat Adopts Woman and Moves In! – GWC Mag

A video shared by TikTok user @carolinarn1984 showed the story of Jesse, the 21-year-old cat, finding his new home. The video featured Jesse, a senior cat who had a peculiar habit of crossing the street. Jesse’s visits were not just for a casual chat; they were fueled by his love for the “delicious wet food”. Over time, this adorable feline had become a regular at @carolinarn1984’s home, causing some understandable concern for his original owner.

With the risk of him crossing the street and her growing unease about his safety, Jesse’s original owner reached a heartfelt decision. They realized that Jesse’s happiness lay in the newfound friendship he had formed, and they made a selfless choice. “He deserves to live where he wants,” they said, and with a heavy heart, she entrusted Jesse to @carolinarn1984, her feline friend’s new favorite dining companion.

Update!!! This sweet old man cat that is 21 years old came out of no where… we found out he lived across the street. We had already fed him wet food a few days before we found that out which kept him coming back for more. His mom tried taking him home a few times but she could not keep him there. It wasnt good he was crossing the street to get to our house. After a few weeks she texted me asking if i had seen him because she had not seen him for awhile… that’s because he moved inside after finding our doggy door. She said he deserves to live where he wants 😁 He is loved! ❤️ He gets wet food several times a day and is looking so much better. He is the sweetest old man and stole our hearts!! #oldmancat #sweet #transformation #21years #catsoftiktok #cat #stray #neighborscat #chosenone #love #happiness #sweetboy #jesse #update #4months #lookingbetter #lovehim @CarolLeAnn ⬅️This was the first video I posted of him
