Cat Is Just Overjoyed That Her Humans Are ...

Cats are truly the best judges of character. So, if your kitty likes and accepts somebody, that’s usually a very very good sign.

Just ask Vanessa Richards, who all thanks to her cat, is now officially getting married to her cat approved fiancé.

This is Smokky the cat!

Richards had adopted Smokky when she was a mere kitten when a friend took in a pregnant stray who gave birth to Smokky and four brothers.

Smokky herself is a loud sassy cat and charms absolutely everyone she meets. For a long time, she also enjoyed being the one and only love in her mom’s life. However, that was until her mom started dating a new boyfriend.

“I am a self-confessed ‘crazy cat lady’, so naturally I always hoped I would end up with someone who shared my appreciation,” Richards explained to The Dodo. “Tom grew up with and always liked cats, but like a lot of guys, I think he was a bit more of a dog person at heart. I think Smokky definitely changed that, however.”

At first, Smokky was quite shy and suspicious of this stranger that entered their purrfect world. So, when the couple later decided to move in together, Smokky had to decide whether Tom was worth it or not. Luckily, he passed all of the tests with flying colors!!!!

“Around the third day since I moved her in, I was away for the evening and Tom sent me a Snapchat with Smokky contently snuggling on his shoulder,” Richards stated. “From that moment, they have had a beautiful bond, and he is an excellent ‘cat daddy’!”

Tom ended up proposing to Richards recently, and naturally, they wanted to include Smokky right in the announcement.

“Anyone familiar with cats knows that you definitely can’t make them do anything they don’t want to, so we just put her in place, called her name waving some treats, and snapped pictures like crazy hoping for the best,” Richards went on to say. “And the final result was better than we could have hoped for! Our family and friends were all delighted by our announcement.”
