When she was around 3 years old, Sophie the cat was rescued from a hoarding situation, where she and a ton of other animals were all stacked in cages on top of each other. She was taken in by the Animal Rescue League of Boston (ARL), and soon adopted into her new family.
Sophie is an incredibly sweet and loving cat, and just wants to be around her parents as much as she possibly can. For the first few nights after she was adopted, whenever her parents would head off to bed, she would head up to the top of their dresser and sleep there the entire night. It’s as if she wanted to be high enough to watch her parents, and to make sure she knew exactly when it was time to get up again.
“I tried to see if she would sleep in our bed but she insisted on always sleeping on the dresser,” Christiana Viscusi, Sophie’s mom, told The Dodo. “So after a few nights I cleared off the dresser and put her bed there. She's been going up to her bed when we go to bed ever since.”
