The Universal Cat Distribution System Explained: Is It Even Real?

You’ve probably noticed all those animal and kitten videos people post on TikTok and Instagram. I mean, they’re adorable and bring smiles to a lot of people. But I think cats have more of a purpose than just being cute for our videos.

The other day, I saw this video of a guy who found a little kitten by the side of the road. And get this, as soon as he walked over, more kittens started coming out of the bushes towards him! It really made me think that guy was meant to find those kittens. I couldn’t stop thinking about that video all day.

Was it merely chance or the pinnacle of a cat distribution system? Wait, but what exactly is this cat distribution system?

Cat Distribution System Explained

The idea of a cat distribution system first started showing up on TikTok. Now, I know that’s a pretty new term, but it’s really caught on in just the past couple of years.

Basically, a cat distribution system is how the universe knows just when and where to get a cat or kitten to the right person. It’s kind of like how newspapers and magazines get delivered everywhere every day; the universe delivers cats and kittens to us humans.

Now you may be wondering, why would the universe do something like that?

Maybe you’re going through a rough patch, and a cat is just what you need to lift your mood. Or maybe you always wanted a feline friend, and suddenly, there was one on your porch one day. Cats can be pretty mystical, and I think the universe knows when the time is right to send you a furry friend. Here are some thoughts on why a cat might just show up out of the blue for you.

Comfort

Finding a tiny kitten or even an adult cat during a tough time can really help lift your spirits. Losing someone you’re close with, whether it’s family or a beloved pet, really hurts. Their absence leaves such a big hole.

Cats have always been known to provide emotional support and keep you company. They’re so independent, but being around them is believed to make the grief and loneliness from loss feel not as bad.

When you’re going through something so hard, maybe the cat gods noticed how much you could use some comfort. That’s why they decided to send you a kitten. Kittens are so playful and cute, they really know how to bring joy and happiness. Having one around can help take your mind off the pain and give you a new reason to smile each day.

A Sign That You Deserve Love

Have you felt lonely lately or been going through a tough time? And then all of a sudden a little kitten showed up in your life. It’s like the cat gods knew just what you needed.

Cats are really good at sensing how we feel. They can tell when we need some company. Maybe there was a time when you doubted if you deserved love or thought it wasn’t real. But now that you’ve got this furball at home, you see that love comes in all sorts of ways. They’re there to show you that love can surprise you anytime, even when you least expect it.

You’re The Right Person

You’re probably aware of how many kittens need homes. Well, there’s actually a whole system set up to find these little guys places to live – the universal cat distribution system. Whether it’s a litter that got left behind or a stray momma cat with babies, or just a kitten all alone, their job is to match these cute furballs with good people willing to open their homes.

And the crazy thing is, it seems to work almost like magic. Even though we don’t really get how it all connects, a kitten will show up when you need some company or when they need someone to take care of them and give them love.

Do We Choose Cats or Do They Choose Us?

Cats are really good at sensing things about people. They can tell who’s a good person and who they want to hang out with better than any other animal. It’s not us choosing the cat – they’re the ones picking their friend.

Cats are totally independent, too. They don’t need humans to take care of them and survive. So when a cat decides they want to be buddies with someone, it’s because the cat chose to.

Did you know cats are also like little healers? I’ve heard of cats wanting to be around people who aren’t feeling well – they want to help them get better. My old neighbor is a good example. Her neck was all swollen, but letting a kitten rest on it every night made it start getting smaller. Who knows, maybe that kitten was trying to make her feel better!

My Story

I lost my cat of 18 years about two years ago now. It was really rough, I was so sad I didn’t really feel like being around people for a while. You get so used to living with something for that long, and then they’re just gone without even a goodbye hug. Going through their pictures and seeing their empty bed, missing them falling asleep on your lap when you got home from work.

After two or three months, I started feeling like I needed to clear my head, so I went for a walk in the woods by my house, maybe a couple of miles away. I stopped halfway to sit on a bench for a minute. That’s when I noticed this tiny little kitten peeking out from behind the bench. It was tri-colored but looked so skinny, you could see its bones under its skin it was so thin and not doing well.

I came across this calico cat way out in the middle of nowhere and have no idea how she got there. But I knew I couldn’t leave her. I brought her home with me, took care of her red eyes, and got her to the vet. Now she’s just chilling on my lap while I write this. She’s gorgeous, with orange, black, and white fur and the same bright orange eyes as my cat, who passed two years ago.

Having her around really helped me deal with losing my buddy. And who knows, if I hadn’t found her, she wouldn’t have made it. It makes me think there’s no such thing as a random cat. They all end up in your life for a reason, whether it’s a tiny kitten, a momma cat, or an older cat.

Real or Not?

Whether you believe in fate or not, there’s no denying that cats don’t just show up randomly. Sometimes, they pop in just long enough to teach us something, while other times, they stick around for the long haul to keep us company through all of life’s ups and downs.

No matter what you think about how cats find their people, once a cat chooses you, you’re a goner. Trust me, if you think you’re not a cat person now, just wait for the cat distribution system to deliver one. Then you’ll be hooked, I guarantee it! 🙂
