The car's wheels fell into puddles, causing water to spray on my window. The sun shone brightly over the city, only a couple clouds in the sky. By now, the last of the snow was melting, spring was officially here. The Uber dropped me off at the animal shelter, and I headed inside.

Most of the animals where gone, because families where stuck in their houses and needed company, so they got pets. But I found five cats left over. Zero dogs left over, though. Why does everyone love dogs? I don't get it. You have to walk them, pick up their crap, deal with them trying to eat your food, meanwhile cats sit on your lap and purr, use the bathroom inside, and are just way more adorable.

Anyway, obviously there where no kittens left, so I decided I would find the youngest cat. I walked ahead towards the wall of cages, filled with cat toys, litter boxes and food+water bowls. On the cages was a small paper tied to the bars with a zip-tie. I walked up to the first box, and lifted the paper up with my hand (Which was covered in hand sanitizer).

Cat #9

Name: Rufus

Age: Old

Gender: Too grumpy to tell

Description: Short gray fur, green eyes.

Personality: This grumpy old boi wont really let you near them, once they warm up to you though, they can be slightly less terrible. Warning: They will meow all night and keep you awake until you wish they where dead.

(A/N, Based on a cat I had to babysit for my aunt once. TheOfficialGaydar and Quietcove know what I'm talking about)

I decided no for that one, and moved to the next.

Cat #10

Name: Albatross

Age: 5 yrs.

Gender: Male

Description: We haven't seen him before, he strikes at night when we aren't looking and the employees never live to tell the tale.

Personality: Murderous, evil, run for your life.

Heck no-

I moved to the next, I could see through the bars that it was a small flame-colored cat.

Cat #11

Name: Rusty

Age: 1 yr.-ish

Gender: Male but acts like a female. Also he is totally gay.

Description: Red-flaming pelt, short fur, long tail, green eyes.

Personality: Can be a bit wild at times, as he loves the outdoors and we believe once was an outdoor cat before we found him abandoned on the side of the road. He is totally gay and if you buy him you are required to buy the cat in the cage to the right, because they are in-separable.

Well, Rusty seemed perfect for us, so I decided to check out the cat on the right.

Cat #12

Name: None yet, but he responds to anything with the word gray in it.

Age: 2 yrs.

Gender: Male, might be even more gay then Rusty.

Description: Very fluffy, all kinds of shades of gray with yellow eyes, his tail was cut off in emergency surgery after he sacrificed himself for Rusty, as Rusty was in the middle of the street about to get run over by a car, and the two have never left each other sense.
