POV: Papa with the cat he said he didn't want.

We adopted Tuktuk a few weeks ago, and now he's everyone's favorite in the house.

Pictured: my father putting together the cat tree for the kitten that wandered into our backyard a few days ago

Despie the fact that neither he nor my mother have ever wanted a cat, they've fallen in love with little Pippin surprisingly quickly! 😆

Dad with Toffee

My Dad said dogs are enough for our family. Now, our cats outnumbered our dogs.

Why do dads always say they don't want pets and then become their biggest fans?

Is it a universal dad thing to say "I don't want a pet" and then become their biggest fan later? 😂

I got my cat almost 3 years ago. The first day I brought her home, my dad didn't talk to me for an hour and just looked at her like I had brought home a random creature from another planet.

He literally said: "Take that THING back to her previous owner!"

Fast forward 2 days later, and suddenly they're best friends. Now he puts her on his lap like she's his baby and sings lullabies to her.

Sir, wasn't this the same "THING" you wanted me to return? 😭

It's honestly so cute seeing how attached they became. The biggest pet haters somehow always end up being the biggest softies.

Do you have similar experiences with your dads and pets?

Dads, I need an explanation. Why do you act like you don't want a pet at first, but then two days later you're treating them like your own child? 😭

Tale as old as time

Dad said we couldn't have a dog, eventually changed him mind and allowed it. Now they're best friends. This picture sits on his work desk in a frame that says I 💚 Papa that was a gift from the dog for Father's Day.
