‘The World’s Worst Cat’ Is Looking For A New Home, And The Ad For Her Is Hilarious
The staff of an animal shelter in North Carolina thought that finding a new home for one of their residents would be difficult. However, a hilarious and unusual ad they created might make this task a breeze.
Perdita is a 4-year-old domestic shorthair cat who became a shelter resident after her owner passed away. It was clear from the start that she is difficult to handle. The first thing that the vets suggest in such cases is a medical evaluation because cats often act out due to health issues or pain.
It turned out she is perfectly healthy, and the reasons for her misbehavior lie elsewhere.
Finding a home for her was a priority. Still, the staff decided not to sugarcoat things but to make the ad as honest and straightforward as possible. We don’t know if they intended for it to be so funny as well.
The shelter staff posted the ad on Facebook
An update soon followed.
People loved the ad even though it wasn’t very flattering, so the shelter soon posted an update stating that they were reviewing over 50 applications to find a suitable home for this grumpy cat. Perdita seems to either enjoy or dislike attention; it’s hard to say with this cat.
People are convinced Perdita will find a good home
The ad amused most of the commenters, but some took a more serious approach, analyzing the situation this cat found herself in. She lost the human who cared for her throughout her life and her home, where they lived quietly together. Now she is in an environment that is entirely new to her, surrounded by many animals that are anything but quiet and calm. This is probably not her true personality that we are witnessing. It is a common problem in shelters, especially for animals that have lived alone with a single owner. They struggle to adapt to the shelter environment; they appear antisocial and sometimes even hostile. This behavior prevents them from being adopted, leading to further isolation, and the vicious cycle continues.
Some people shared their own stories of adopting such animals. After a short period, these animals turned out to be great companions—playful and friendly. It is possible the same will happen with Perdita.
