It started on Reddit, as many questionable decisions do. Lately I’ve been scrolling through my local subreddit every day. A week or so ago someone posted a photo of an old cat in need of a new home. I told my sister and her friend I was thinking about adopting him. Turns out they knew an older cat who also needed a new home. So now I’m indefinitely cat sitting an asshole who also doesn’t like pets named Courage.
