That face 🥺💕
Everything was uncertain within the first several months of Jolie’s life. She was discovered as a stray in Florida and was then passed around between shelters and foster homes. She only wanted to find a secure place where she could finally relax, and when her future mother, Deanna McCallum, found out about her, she felt she could provide that.
McCallum explained, “She had been at Cape Ann Animal Aid for quite some time before I was able to meet her through Zoom.” “I realized she needed a caring home right away.”
Following that Zoom chat, McCallum made the decision to adopt Jolie and provide her with the permanent home she had always desired. She couldn’t see Jolie in person before picking her up, and when she came, she was already snuggled into her carrier, so McCallum simply grabbed the carrier and drove home. When Jolie poked her head out of her carrier for the first time, she saw her new home and mother for the first time.
“When we came home, she was quite nervous!” “I unzipped her carrier and let her explore for a time,” McCallum explained.
Jolie was clearly reluctant, but her new mother could tell from the look on her face that she was also taken aback that this was all for her. Jolie was finally home after so much uncertainty.
Even though it was difficult not to meet and bond with Jolie in person before taking her home, watching the smile on her face when she saw her new life for the first time made all the waiting worthwhile.
It took Jolie almost a week to properly settle into her new home, but once she realized she was staying, she began to relax. The rescue had given the impression that Jolie would have a tough time adjusting, but McCallum was struck by how gentle and loving she was throughout the entire procedure. She just wanted to be loved after everything she’d been through.
“While she took a few weeks to come up to me, Jolie is the sweetest cat I’ve ever encountered,” McCallum remarked. “She’s never hissed at me, scratched me, or attempted to bite me.” She has never behaved out in her life. She’s just a wonderful soul who needs a loving home, and I’m so grateful to have her with me.”
Jolie knew she was finally where she was supposed to be the instant she popped her head out of her container.
