This Cat Was Left Behind When His Owner Moved Away | The Dodo 

❤❤❤ I love you guys for taking him in! Y’all are my type of people! 🐾👏🫶

Good.

Thank god for that! He has a better home now, your disgusting neighbors don't deserve him!!

Yay!!❤

Frankly I would stay with you too,home is where the❤ is👏👏👏👏

it's psychotic. How could you do that. i would never

Humans🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

I don't think the word rude describes it, it's inhumane, cruel and evil

Raggedy smh

Special place in hell awaits THOSE who abandon their pets! Repentance is futile!

It hurts to know he was trying so hard to find a home, so desperate to be inside and be with people but was denied all those 4 years. Im glad he got rescued, but you could see how scared and depressed he was prior to that.

@@blacksesamecandies My indoor cat likes to take 2 steps outside to look around and one day the wind blew and slightly closed the door not shut but mostly and she almost got herself stuck under the door trying to get into that little crevice. Aside from that I'm from the area but thankfully not San Bernardino, and there's so much gang violence out there (gunshots) every night I have people tell me and you be hearing of kids catching strays or getting murdered all the time so I can't imagine the poor thing having to deal with the 4th of July and than the occasional shootout. I even had what seemed like an 15 year old boy pull a gun on me actually. There's also from what I hear some virus going around san Bernardino and cats are dying randomly for no reason everywhere.

Years back, I moved into a house and noticed an old black cat always hanging around it. I learned from my neighbors that the cat's previous owner abandoned him when he/she moved away. As an older cat, the stray would have had a hard time competing for food with the younger ones but avoided starving because my neighbors were kind enough to keep feeding him until I moved in. The cat wouldn't let anyone else adopt him but stayed inside and around the empty house by going through a small pet door. No doubt he was waiting for an owner who would never return. It was so heartbreaking to see, so I immediately adopted the cat and named him Puma. He was the sweetest cuddlebug ever and brought me a lot of joy. Sadly, he only lived about a year or so longer before passing away from age and illness. It's been 14 years since I lost Puma, and I still miss him so much...

In my country, people keeps kitten's. But the moment the kittens turn into full grown cats, they throw out their pet. My neighbors did the same with their pregnant cat. 😢😢😢😢. I kept her for almost two months. But she passed away before birth 😢😢t

@@luna-thevives What country?

@@astrovortex6307 Bangladesh

@@luna-thevives Dont worry, you made her final days of life comfortable, it would have been worse if she died on the street.

This happens all the time in Europe. It's so sad

A cat will try to hide their pain as much as possible. 😿

This cat is trans

@@sarahlittell448 People hiding emotions? I'm sorry to inform you it's universal lol

Really hoping karma catches up with the people that left this poor innocent kitty to fend for himself. Cruelty personified and it’s infuriating🤬!

Yeah, bc that's what you do! If you absolutely can't keep a pet you search for a good home for it, and not just abandon it!! These heartless bastards!!

​@@HFritz-kp8ioabsolutely. Pets are still treated as an accessory and disposable. I plan my life around my 6 kitties just like I do around my kids not vice versa.

I can understand some times you can't take your furry friend, but at least she made provisions for him so that he wasn't abandoned, just as any animal deserves.

That's the bare minimum to do!

​@H. Fritz I love how you said that she left her body as this is exactly what happened. You'll find her one day on the other side of a 🌈 bridge. Guaranteed.

The problem is that too many people see animals as disposable toys.

Ditto! ❤

Canadians, amirite?

Don't worry, there's dozens of other good people in the world

Thank you! We are the lucky ones to have him in our lives ❤❤❤

Then there would be a cat shortage

Certainly not a domesticated one who has been taught to trust and rely on humans

AWW I love that. Furrever home. ❤😊

It reminds me of that scene in Bolt where the cat always threatened to use her claws to get what she wanted. But it turns out that she was abandoned, and that she was declawed so she couldn't even fend for herself, only relying on threats. But she gets adopted by the same owner as Bolt so it turned out okay.

It's spelt forever, not furrever..

People do it to other people all the time. It shouldn't surprise anyone if they do it to their pets too.

We're not sure if it was intentional or they were in a rush to move because eviction.

​@@Echo81Rumple83 When I was about 7, my family got 2 young, black kittens, a brother and sister. Unfortunately my mom got them declawed at the time, but I was only 7 and thought nothing of it, and they added so much joy to everything!..... To make a VERY long story short - I was 15 in 2008 when my mom was taking the male out to some random vet like 10 miles from our house, despite several that were closer, because of a severe urinary tract infection. She used some old, giant Tupperware bin once used for toys that was pitch black with the lid on. Well the moment she got to this vet and took the lid off the box, he jumped out, ran into the surrounding woods, and he's been missing ever since, despite countless efforts to comb the surrounding woods by us AND the vet! I'm 30 now, but I STILL choke up and get SEVERELY overwhelmed when I think about my indoor, declawed cat with a pretty intense UTI running into those foreign woods, scared as could be, having to fend for himself. What hurts the most is "the unknown." I'll likely NEVER get to know what happened to him, and the thought of him trying to defend himself against a wolf, fox, bear, etc. (Pittsburgh, PA area) with his clawless paws has actually kept me up at night in the past. So honestly I just find it unforgivable to LEAVE a pet behind when you're moving, whether it's a forced eviction or you live on the beach and suddenly receive a 10 minute tsunami warning. In emergency situations, my family/loved ones are my priority, and everything else comes second, even with multiple autoimmune conditions and necessary medications. In some crazy alternate reality where I would dare choose to move somewhere that doesn't accept pets, I would make sure my cats are put in the highest rated shelter within a 50+ mile radius, BEGGING them to keep me informed when/if they get adopted. So when I hear of anyone who moved and left a pet behind AT THE VERY HOUSE THEY'VE LEFT, it just tells me that they view pets as disposable, and are also probably shallow, narcissistic, dime-a-dozen social media addicts that are the reason we have caution signs telling us water is wet.

@@fionnmaccumhaill3257 doesn't matter if it happens to other people. It's a horrible and an evil thing to do.

​@fionnmaccumhaill3257 I'm sure more people would abandon their children, too, if it wasn't illegal and a crime.

Thank you!

Wow-- double whammy of despicable from that neighbor. Thank you for taking that poor helpless baby in. Hope your old neighbor gets the karma they deserve

They declawed the cat and let it roam in the neighborhood defenseless? I don’t know what to think. I get why sometimes people have to leave their animals behind… but not have the decency to even bring the animal to a shelter to surrender the pet is what I don’t get.

Wow what a disgusting "person" she is. Wish her all the worst in the world, disease, suffering, pain, death. Thank you for taking the cat! 🥰

Thank you for being so caring

They should be thrown to the lions.

👏👏👏

💯💯💯💯

I also hope they read this comment, so that they know other people think they’re trash.

Yes, would be nice if they will watch the video. Other humans are not like them. And Jupiter is a big planet of love and lives now his life he deserved.

Doubt it. This love bugs previous owners are obviously heartless and selfish.

they probably died now because god punish ppl like them

Unfortunately people like that won’t change. They think getting a cat or dog is like a car, if the vet bills etc are too much they no longer want it 🥺

You are too kind! I wish his ex owners only the worst, ideally hope they will be let behind in an elderly home one day

@@_special_k_ YES!

You could tell Jupiter was an indoor cat by the condition of his fur..dirty, scruffy. Outside ferals have clean coats in general, which is tough to believe, but they know how to take care of themselves; that life is what they know, adversities and all. Indoor kitties left outside have a harder time as you say. Ignorance equals cruelty 🤨🤨😾😿

Yes, but so sad he had to experience the abandonment, and the fear, hunger, and emotional hurt to go with it. Plus, he remained in a shelter for 4 years awaiting a loving family to adopt him. He lost years of his life but hopefully the rest of it is amazing.

@@MrDCMiami Agreed 💯.

My cats are strictly indoor, and it is ALWAYS my biggest fear that they somehow accidentally make it outside. People need to understand that indoor cats and outdoor cats live very different lives, and abandoning your indoor cat outside is potentially a death sentence for them since they don't have experiencing surviving in those conditions.

@@LittleHobbit13 Especially when suddenly without food, medical care, and any sense of security. It's like dropping someone from the tropics at the North Pole without warning.

People want a cute kitten, and then when they grow up, they lose interest and don't care about them. There are some truly terrible people out there. Volunteering at a shelter, I am never worried when someone adopts a four-year-old tabby cat. I am always worried when people come specifically just to adopt a kitten.

@@lisabelle7553 My first cat was a kitten I adopted from a shelter and had him until he passed from cancer at 14 years. I have adopted many cats over the years and nearly all were pretty much grown when I took them in. And they were abandoned by their previous owners.

I totally agree with you. 4 years to get adopted ?!?! He is fortunate he was not euthanized like so many other cats in shelters are. It was never stated how old this cat might be in the video, but hopefully he has many years left with this loving family. What a sweet, forgiving cat this is....

Four years of beatings, hunger, cold, rain, loneliness, sadness and sufferings poor thing 😢 so pleased for the happy ending ❤❤❤

This cat looks like an intact tomcat. Big head, wide jowls, etc.

😭😭😭😭

I am amazed how he survived for 4 years outside being a former inside cat. Most cats would pass away in a similar situation.

like people might say they had no choice, or things were out of their control. but you wouldnt do the same thing to a human, you find a way to make it work.

YES!!! we need more people like this in the world.

Thank you ya

He is so sweet, we can't believe anyone would let him go. We see so lucky to have him in our lives now!

@@ILikeCatsMoreThanILikeYou he is such a good boy, and deserves nothing but the best life ever

What a wonderfull people he has now!❤ they bring faith in humanity. Thank you for being like this. My cats: Viola and Simba send hugs😻

Yep, rot and burn at the same time.

​@@donmanue3274😅

I hope the previos owner who abandoned him gets a Karma in the worst way possible 😢😢 Its really saddening to think they could just left Jupy like he's a soul-less garbage 😭😭😭😭😭

His eyes are really heart breaking. As we say in French 'ça fait chaud au coeur ' (literally it warms my heart up) to see how loved he is at the end. He so deserves it.

I agree!!

They clearly didn't see him as family. They saw him as property that was disposable. People can be so disgusting

@@PeteyThePenguin None of us know anything about the previous owner or what happened. No idea. Just guessing.

I have a cat that's at least 19. She came with the house when we moved here 17 years ago. She has arthritis in her front legs and toes, so she's exclusively indoors for 5 or 6 years now. I don't think she could defend herself. She takes long naps on a screened in porch in the summertime when the weather is warm, but that's as close to outside as she's going to get.

🫶 sending love to them! (I’ll try to find a way to donate as well) 🐾❤

They have a RU-vid channel @@SeattleRaindrop206 with details of how to do so!

I recognised her voice too! Such a wonderful team.

@@MissIncorrigibleOfOz Thank you! (I just overdrew my account. live alone and support myself, which is really difficult these days.. near impossible to keep a roof over my head in a single-income-household) BUT! I will always, always, always keep a percentage (even if it only amounted to 10 cents) to donate to the causes that I feel passionate for. They deserve it. Things could always be worse for us, we should feel blessed and truly appreciate our gifts. Then give ANY extra that can be spared, to help others in need. 🐾🌎💕🙏

Maybe they'll get attacked by lions.

Karma will get them! ❤❤❤

If karma won't, I volunteer

?? Gotta say, this reminds me of my mother sending me to stay with my uncle for the summer, while she went on another Caribbean cruise with my stepfather from hell... when they returned, she never called my uncle to arrange to come and get me, (my uncle called his brother to tell him that I had been abandoned at his house and my father did nothing about it) so I ended up living with my uncle and went to high school there for 3 years. (I haven't spoken to my mother or father in over 30 years.)

i'd happily slit their throats

This is a BRILLIANT idea💡❤ Yes, yes, and more yes! I wonder about logistics… I can try to research. 🐾 🌎 🫶

Right now the shelters are bursting at the seams.

@@SeattleRaindrop206 Yes yes! ✌️🙏

yeah the love component - he definitely needed that as well

Ididnt think of that,wat if Jupes owner passed away?how sad.

God bless ur daughter

Good daughter

As a fellow Canadian you should know there are plenty of stray cats where you are at.

@@lukejposadas As a fellow canadian you should know that providing me information I already know is annoying. Mind your own business and let me appreciate this touching video. Thanks!!

Canadian?

@@StevenMarx-py8jc Ölmkjbyu

Pissed that Americans think that Canada is always cold we have summer here too

He definitely is. We are never letting him go!
