People often choose to adopt pets that perform and appear attractive while choosing a pet. Pets at shelters must thus be charming in order to be adopted quickly. However, there are situations when being adorable is not enough to get a permanent home.
That is exactly what the three-year-old cat, Sigmund, did. This cat was known for being a cuddly kitty, but sadly, no one wanted to adopt him. He was having trouble getting people to pay attention to him, so he had to spend most of his life in the animal shelter Cat Haven WA.
He was adopted once, but his owners returned him to the shelter after just two weeks because he “played too rough.”
Despite being returned to the shelter, Sigmund wasn’t discouraged and always wanted a forever home. And in order to avoid that fate, Sigmund came up with an adorable trick to get himself noticed by not only the staff but also potential new families.
Every time a possible adopter passed by, the cunning cat started licking the glass window pane of his enclosure. The Cat Haven WA employees started taking photos of Sigmund after seeing his unusual behavior, and they later shared those photos on Facebook. They hoped that someone who could be a future adopter would see these pictures.
Fortunately for Sigmund, his wonderfully funny approach worked, and people started paying attention to him.
It assisted him in relocating, and his new owners adore him for all of his eccentricities, grumpiness, and meticulous window cleaning!
