Jazmin Felder’s house has become a haven for stray cats. One day when she heard meowing from her yard, she immediately followed the sound. There she found a stray tabby on the branch of the tree.
She took the tabby in, made him feel at home, and named him Buddy. After a few days passed, Felder noticed that Buddy was not playing with the other cats.
Also, Felder realized that Buddy preferred to be alone even during naps. That was until Felder found a five-week-old, gray kitten and decided to take her in, too. The gray kitten was abandoned, and Felder didn’t have the heart to leave her.
After adopting the kitten, Felder named her Hannah. At the time, Felder had five rescue cats but thought that adding one more wouldn’t hurt.
“I was raised to always take care of what life brought to me. And every time a cat crossed my doorstep, I gave them a home of their own and all of my love,” Felder told
When Hannah arrived, Buddy changed. They instantly became best friends even though they have opposite personalities. Now, Buddy stays beside Hannah. They groom, hug, and comfort each other. The two are basically inseparable.
“Buddy will take food and give it to Hannah before he starts to eat himself. They enjoy batting cat toys back and forth and seeing who can reach the top of the stairs first. We are sure Buddy lets Hannah win,” Felder said.
Aside from being best friends with Hannah, Buddy has also befriended the other cats. Felder is pleased that her cats have become a happy family and that Buddy no longer sleeps alone.
Cat lover Jazmin Felder’s house is home to six rescue cats. When she found Buddy and took him in, he preferred to be alone and didn’t play with the other cats of the family.
