A stray cat stealthily enters a family’s yard in search of sustenance, forever altering their lives for the better.
Have you ever had an unexpected addition to your life? One that’s totally unplanned, yet you discover it was the missing piece? That’s exactly what happened to Ariel Heath’s family and Chunk Chunk, their adopted cat.
The Heaths have a lovely house, a great neighborhood, and even an adorable, loving dog. It seemed like they had it all until an unexpected guest came “knocking” on their backdoor.
A few months ago, four little kittens suddenly appeared outside Heath’s home. They were drinking water from a bowl left outside.
When the kittens heard someone coming, they ran away from the property. A few days later, Heath heard the cries of a kitten coming from the backdoor. It was one of the kittens from the litter!
Since the kitten was skittish, Heath placed a bowl of food by the fence and watched from afar. The kitten snuck under the fence and ate the food.
This went on for several weeks. The kitten would just come, eat, and go.
One day, the kitten allowed Heath to pet her. It was the start of a beautiful relationship. Heath decided to make the kitten a permanent part of their family after that. (h/t)
The Heath family’s life was close to being perfect, but the addition of Chunk Chunk, their adopted cat, made everything so much better.
A few months ago, Heath discovered four kittens drinking water out of a bowl just outside her home. When she approached them, the kittens heard her and immediately ran away from the property.
One day, Heath heard a kitten crying outside the backdoor. It was one of the kittens from the litter. Since the kitten was quite skittish, Heath just placed a bowl of food by the fence. She just watched from afar.
Then, the kitten ate all the food. For several weeks, the kitten would come, eat the food outside of Heath’s home, and leave.
One day, the kitten decided to trust Heath and let her pet her.
After that, Heath adopted the kitten, who’s been part of their family ever since.
