If you have a pet, you know that occasionally the animal selects the owner rather than the other way around.
The kind-hearted couple Ivie Lee and Jason reside in an apartment in Pasadena, California. The couple opened the entrance to the alley every morning to feed the stray cat, whom they frequently spotted prowling around their complex and had ragged black and white fur. The cat was given the name Mary, and they always made sure to have cat food on hand to give her when she arrived.
The couple fed the cat almost every day for a year, and they were happy about this. But one morning, Mary disappeared, and weeks went by, she still didn’t reappear. Jason and Ivie worried that the worst had happened to her.
In July 2019, Mary finally returned to their neighborhood, but she’d brought a friend back with her. “Look what happened when she came back!!!!!” Ivie wrote on her Twitter page.
It turns out that Mary was expecting a kitten, gave birth to it, and then carried the cat back to the house where she had previously been fed. The fact that Mary had confidence in them enough to bring her cat to them moved Ivie and Jason.
As soon as the couple saw Mary and the kitten they knew they had to do something to help them. So, Ivie and Jason decided to adopt Mary and her kitten.
They made arrangements to have Mary spayed while also bringing Mary and her kitten to the neighborhood vet clinic for a checkup. Thankfully, both were healthy, and Mary was presently taking it easy and recuperating. She was succeeding so much!
To gather money for their uninvited home guests, Ivie and Jason created a GoFundMe page. With the support of their Twitter followers, they were able to swiftly raise the $2,000 needed to cover the costs of the cats’ vaccinations, food, and other needs.
Once Mary had recovered, Ivie and Jason officially adopted her and her kitten, and they quickly settled into their new home. If you’d like to see more photos of Mary and her kitten, you can visit Ivie’s Twitter page.
