She was overwhelmed by the world around her, surviving on the kindness of strangers as she wandered the streets alone.When a Good Samaritan heard about her, she set out to find the cat. The moment she arrived, the calico greeted her with eager meows and walked right up, seeking attention. It was clear the cat wasn't meant to be living outdoors.As soon the person reached down to pet her, she leaned in with complete trust.

Soon after, she received a message from Little Wanderers NYC, a volunteer-run rescue known for helping the neediest street cats.Without hesitation, the rescue reposted the video, rallied their community for support, and searched for a foster home for this deserving cat. She leaned into a kind person when she was pettedLittleWanderersNYCAnd the community delivered. People shared her story, offered help, and sent their love. Once a foster home was secured, Ines was able to bring the calico inside and create a cozy space for her to decompress.

She was finally safe indoorsLittleWanderersNYCOnce her belly was full, she turned to Ines with gratitude and asked for even more affection. No one knows why she was abandoned, but one thing was certain: she would never again have to go hungry or face another harsh winter outside.Little Wanderers NYC took her into their care and ensured she received all the medical attention she needed to thrive. LittleWanderersNYC"She was pulled from danger and now fully vetted."With her friendly and affectionate nature, the rescue knew it wouldn't take long before she won someone over.

LittleWanderersNYCThe calico, now named Sonia, walked into her new home with so much confidence, as if she had always lived there. She quickly introduced herself to the resident cats and claimed her favorite spot: right on top of her human."She fit right in with my resident cats, including two calicos, and was snoozing on my shoulder within 20 minutes of arriving," the adopter shared. Sonia fell asleep on her human's shoulder in her forever homeLittleWanderersNYCSonia loves treats, but more than anything, she loves people.
