Mason, a feral cat who wouldn't let anyone touch him, meets kittens

Mason was a battle scarred feral cat that had about 3 months to live and the people at the shelter wanted to make his final months as comfortable as possible. Mason was fierce and wouldn't let anyone touch him, until they brought in a couple of foster kittens ...

we have a number of rescues including a tabby like this one who was a feral. One day, he got senile and forgot to be afraid anymore.

I'm three months late but this happened to my senior cat. Got her as a kitten, she was never huge on human contact. Now at age 16 she 1/2

7 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Absolutely loves to be picked up and held like a baby. She snuggles right in and rubs her face on mine, and hates to be put down again. 2/2

He's definitely still alive! He has his own page on Facebook: Grandpa Mason and His Kittens. He's like a den mother to rescued kittens.

People underestimate how powerful hugs are. I've never met someone so angry that a hug wouldn't make them want to curl up and cry.

I uh...think he meant if you "still" a beating heart, you die. If you knew that and were making a joke, I'm sorry for being Capt. Obvious :(

8 years ago | Likes 44 Dislikes 2

^^ But "be still, my bearing heart" is about calming down from excitement. Not death. The more you know.

8 years ago | Likes 15 Dislikes 18

Yeah, I'm gonna second the motion to die.

8 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

True - but I still think that was his intention in the comment regardless of whether it was anatomically/contextually correct.

8 years ago | Likes 24 Dislikes 2

The contrast between the figurative and the literal meaning IS the joke. Someone should assign a Captain Obvious to you permanently.

How the fuck did you manage to figure that person was "highly angry"??? This is what highly fucking angry looks like.
