A 20-year-old cat was rescued and given a permanent happy home and a much-needed bath. He is so happy that he can’t stop purring and meowing.
Meet Oswald the cat!
Oswald was brought in the shelter at the age of 20; that is approximately 100 in human years.
“He was brought to a shelter without a name or much of a hope,” Karyn Poplin of Kitty Adventure Rescue League told Love Meow.
Karyn took the kitten out of the shelter and into her cat sanctuary where he would have a place to call home.
Regardless of his health, age, and problems with walking, nothing can stop this old cat from “exploring and getting in the way in true cat fashion.”
Usually cats don’t like baths, but Oswald was so grateful to be cleaned.
“This guy is a real hero. He let me bathe him, and he ate all of the food I give for him, all he wanted was some chin scritches,” Karyn said.
“He has the grumpiest old man face but he truly loves people. He’s a talker too!
The friendly cat snuggled up to his forever human and started his lovely purring after the bath.
“Walking is troublesome for him, but he’s a fighter. It doesn’t stop him from getting under foot just like kitties do!” Karyn told Love Meow.
He is eating very well and loving every second of his new life.
Since Oswald came in his new forever home, he hasn’t stopped purring. “He wants you to know he loves you,” Karyn told Love Meow.
“Welcome home, Oswald!”
