Keep her

put in cameras to see them interact when shes not there

Rescues are way too picky. They complain that their animals aren't being adopted, but they turn down most applicants. I applied to adopt a senior cat and two dogs and all three times I was turned down. One didn't give a reason, one said no because I was renting, and one said no because I said I wouldn't feed him blue buffalo food 🙄 I will never try to go through a rescue agency again.

Keep her!!🙏🏽😻😻😻

@@byCorrindaandSimone Yes I would adopt her.

It may have just been a numbers game. It may be different with dogs, as my experience is with cats. Even though I read we are making progress, there are still just SO MANY unwanted cats looking for a home. Spay and neuter every chance you get!

Unfortunately there are literally thousands and thousands of cats in shelters :/ and older cats aren't as popular

@@ronclark9306having volunteered for a rescue for decades, I totally agree and adopt not shop too!😊

People want the 'perfect cat' / kitten I adopted a 3 legged cat and they wouldnt tell me how long he had been there

The problem is many people say online that they will adopt this cat or that cat or this dog or that dog and yet it is another person who actually does the adopting. Just saying because words are cheap. And yes, I have rescued cats on the streets and am still feeding some stray cats that I cannot adopt due to having too many pets already--7 dogs and 4 cats (after some cats passed away). So what I do when I have the budget is to spay/neuter some of those strays on our street.

I know, Right?!

The only reason might be because of its breed. It looks like a rag doll or snowshoe type of breed which are more prone to health issues.

Her true personality very likely wasn’t coming through when she was at the shelter. She was under stress, apparently bullied by the other cats. Shelters must feel like being in jail for lots of animals.

​@@Kaia6485 I'm thinking Snowshoe, too💖

​@@robin7499 Most cats don't do well in shelters. That's why too many are labeled unadoptable. Good news is many shelters are realizing this and trying to make things better🙏

You'd be so lucky. She's utterly adorable. She's like a dream cat. You being 70 and her being 8, perfect. FYI, 70 is not that old. 90, that's old.

😊@noneofyourbusine I really hope you can adopt this sweet girl if it doesn't work out at the other place. Post to this story and let us know if you do. If not you march right over and take home a sweet kitty who touches your heart! So many deserve a loving home with someone as nice as you. Rose S.

I reckon this gal will keep this sweet baby. But there's definitely a good choice of lonely kitties in cages 😢 in a local shelter who'd ❤ to keep u company

Pretty sure you don't live in Bucharest.

Also that woman owns the cat now, if you somehow missed the rest of the video.

If you have had her 13 years you need to keep her. It would be to sressfull for her to be re homed at this age.

​@@daylehudson6810that's the first cat, tequila

this is so true. AND I hope this lovely woman realizes that all she has to do is separate them for a while (put Chou in a bathroom, perhaps?) with a comfy little bed, litter and food tray...so they can get to know each other under the door. Tequila WILL undoubtedly be curious about her meows and talking - but above all, she'll slowly become used to her scent, so when Chou finally comes out they'll bond fairly quickly. It occasionally took me a couple of months of 'separation' to achieve this with a new cat but it ALWAYS works.

i was about to post the exact same thing. what an adorable cat.

Most of my adopted cats lived to their early twenties🥰.

Our first cat lived to be 21 if I recall correctly, later we had two beautifull red cats, brothers, the second passed away a year after the older brother, both were 19 years old.

Oh no I’m now hearing this is the average age span. I thought I lost my boys too soon at age 15 and 16. When I first got my cats I assumed they’d live to 18-20 years. It’s been two years since the last one passed away and I’m still not over it. 😢

@@pennPi I did have a beautiful cat who lived to 24 yrs of age, but I think the average is about 17-19 yrs old. 🐱

@@pennPi PS. I’m so sorry for your loss!

I had a cat like this. I think this cat is part Siamese like mine due to the head shape. At least, that's what the vet said. They are friendly.

My cat is just a tad more adorable. 😊

Tequila should have a vote, after all, it's her home, too. As kind as it seems as Chau is, if Tequila gets stressed over a new cat, that could be troubling.

@@ThrowItOnTheGrillcats take time to adjust to each other, it looks like real progress is being made! It took our 1st cat about 6 months to adjust to our 2nd cat and now they coexist peacefully and play together sometimes

It's not like Chou is attacking or bullying or endangering Tequila in any way. She is in fact respecting tequila's boundaries. So depriving Chou of a home, rejecting her and returning her to the shelter where she was being bullied, is incredibly unkind and cold-hearted. Chou deserves a home and happiness too, and if we mollycoddled every child or pet that initially wasn't thrilled about a sibling, 90% of children and pets would be an only child.

God knew she belonged with Tequila and Mama❤

Because of her age

@LynaYesJustLyna I guess you are right. I had a cat live 4 years and one lived 22 years. Every moment with was a precious gift from above. People are dumb😻!

I searched for cats that were up for adoption within 50 miles from my zip code on an animal adoption website. Nearly 700 cats were available.

Well, because talk is cheap and it is harder to actually adopt a stray cat.

She's a Snowshoe.

Nope. That's a Snowshoe. She's a mix of Siamese and probably an ordinary domestic shorthair. They have similar markings to Ragdolls, but they usually have darker points and are shorthaired.

She is a snowshoe. I had one for 19 years. He was almost dog like in affection and loyalty. It’s part of that breed that they are extremely sweet. My showshoe Rocky (aka Rockstar) was EVERYONES friend. He slept in my bed every night snuggled right up against me. So affectionate.

She didn't adopt it. You didn't even watch the video. She was on the fence, for no reason, at the end.

@@anniedarkhorse6791 We don't *know* if the woman adopted the cat, as this channel just cares about views/clicks (aka $$$) and didn't bother to leave an update... ...or at least have the decency to wait until the main conflict in the story was resolved before uploading it. People get emotionally invested in animal stories of this nature, so leaving us hanging like this is not just inconsiderate, it is a litmus test showing what really matters to them, and it's not the viewers, just the "views".

@@anniedarkhorse6791 Correct, he didn't watch the video. That's because the only reason why he's commenting is to insert his god into it.

Thank you for adopting, a wonderful, senior kitty! The cat in this video, Chou, is only eight years old. Not old!

Bless you for adopting Deja and giving her a good Final Four years of her life.😉

If it doesn't work out for her to keep this little sweetheart, I have a warm loving experienced home for her right here with me. She is the perfect age for me to adopt her. I am in the US, but if we could get her here she would have a good life and a permanent home.

@@lakotaluv 👍🏼

What a sweetheart you are!!

it could take a year or more but eventually they will at least be able to live in the same house and walk past each other. but you have to supervise and chastise the aggressor until it knows not to act out. there will still be occasional squabbles, but not fights where you have to break them up. never use your hand to break up a cat fight you will be horribly bitten. keep a broom handy and interrupt the fight as quick as you can to avoid as much damage to the cats as possible.

I have seen good progress so fingers crossed 🤞🤍

​@Asshats Love Johnny Depp!! Johnny Depp Es Racista!! What the heck?! This video is about the relationship between a lady and her cat. Kick rocks!!!

That looks like a Snowshoe Siamese.

Thank you 🙏 🤍

@@denitrozner9299 Is that you in the video? If so, can you PLEASE let us know how it worked out, did you adopt Chou. I totally agree with the above comment and said the same, it was very commendable of (you?) the owner to take the first cat's feelings into consideration, no one will judge your decision one way or another, we just get emotionally invested in stories like this and it feels like we were left hanging, not knowing how it was resolved. If you know about precious Chou's fate, please let us know. FYI if you are still fostering and haven't made up your mind, just know, while you're the only one who knows what's best for your cat, just take into consideration that they are very resilient creatures and they will learn to live with each other in all but the most extreme cases. My cats were initially upset at any feral cat I ever brought in, but not wanting to leave them out in the frigid NY winter, I brought them in and hoped for the best, and it always worked out...sometimes better than other times lol, but I don't see ANY behavior coming from Tequila that shows any great anxiety or distress at Chou being around (trust me, between the growling, hissing and fighting...you'd know). If you are the one from the video...good luck in whatever decision you make, again, only *you* would know what's best for your cat, . Just Let Us Know! 😹 edit: looking closer at your pfp, that beautiful face looks too similar to the one in the video...it must be you 🤔

@@denitrozner9299I had the same situation. I tried to introduce a cat to my resident cat, who I knew didn’t get along with other cats. After 2 years I gave up.

​@@susanivy3619 sorry for the late reply! It's not formalised yet but I have decided that I could never give her back so she's staying!

Awh, thank you! 🤗

Mine do not snuggle 2 yrs on but they do a lot of grooming and playing. They're super territorial about sleeping areas tho and don't want to share.

I don't think this Beautiful woman deserves her. Just to doubt keeping her PROVES THAT. SHE HAS A DARK SIDE I HAVE NO DOUBT

Imagine if everyone could have a cat like Chou It would truly be Heaven on Earth

Me too I love her with All my Heart

I suffer from MAJOR DEPPESSION and CHOE makes me so happy I wish she was my Cat I would LOVE her for ever and ever. I could teach GOD how to Love us again instead of HATING us because of his OWN MISTAKES. GOD has become EVIL because he will NEVER Admit how badly he screwed up. He would rather BLAME us instead of Taking Responsibility for his FAILURES.

Exactly - my last 3 sisters all lived into their 20's, with my oldest living to 23! I know she's not even close to a record - there've been kitties who've lived much longer. 8 to me is just beginning adulthood! Chou is an absolutely wonderful kitty.

Yes, an update will be awesome👌🏻💗🐈

The cat's cute too.

So true, my daughter got a cat a few years ago and then my wife got one too and I quickly fell in love with them! I didn't think I could ever love an animal that much, they stole my heart ♥😊😺

Yeah, there's some pretty amazing free resources available these days for pet owners eh! (Was literally just watching Jackson Galaxy's series on this topic last week...) It's cool how much online support there is for pet parents these days, really hope it leads to better outcomes for everybody! 🙂

I wish it was! Tequila is fussy with food and if it’s not convenient, she just won’t eat and harass me until I yield and do what she wants 😸 and by harass I just mean act all sweet and cuddly in a way that completely stops me from being able to do any work or chores 😅😂

@@denitrozner9299 Non-food-motivated pets definitely seem to be a challenge for sure, much harder to bribe them to do what you want! 😆

@@denitrozner9299 Chou is beautiful and so is Tequila. I’m sure you will find a way to make it work! Thank you for giving both of them a loving home ❤

that's what happen to my cat.. she's been live with me in my apartment. and when I get home to my parents house, he always make bisuit on Tomy's belly (my mom's dog) as they asleep.

My 12 yr old cat still hates the two new 1 yr old babies. It’s been a year. She tolerates them but if they get near yikes. She’s been alone for 11 yrs so I guess just 1 yr won’t make a difference

Thank you for saving that cat and bringing love and peace into her life
