A 17 year old cat tells her new family how happy she is everyday to have a place to call her forever home!

Meet Kiki!

"At 17 years old, Kiki was dumped at a shelter. We rescued her and now she tells us everyday how happy she is," Kitty Adventure Rescue League shares with Love Meow. "She really likes her new family here at KARL."

Kiki's previous owner passed away, and the family decided to drop her off at the shelter. "We couldn't just let her stay there," KARL wrote. "We run a sanctuary for special needs and geriatric cats. You'd be surprised how many people would rather dump the old cat at a shelter or on the streets..."

Luckily for Kiki, she will no longer be a shelter cat and will have a comfortable place to spend her retirement.

On her way to her new home!

All settled down, Kiki loves it there!

Kiki purring in pure bliss.

Gorgeous little lady!

Snuggling with her human for life!
