Cat Returned To Shelter 5 Times For Being Too Demanding Finally Finds His Forever Home

This is James Bean, a kitty who had a hard time finding his forever home. He was returned to the shelter five times because people thought he was too fussy.

A Redemption

Reddit user ncarbell decided to give him a chance and adopted him from San Francisco Animal Control. She said the former adopters returned the poor cat five times saying that he’s ‘too demanding’. However, after two years, she could say Bean is the most loving cat she’s ever had.

Early Days of Adoption

James Bean was nervous at first, not knowing if he would stay or not. The momma said she noticed that he had opposing ideas about his new home. 

He explored his new home and found a cozy bed and a hamper to curl up in. He realized he had finally found a place where he belonged.

Yes! Bean is ‘Too Demanding’ for Love and Attention

He is a sweet kitty who loves belly rubs and attention. His mom narrated how he loves hiding out in a box or the hamper. Bean feels so relaxed in them. 

He is very affectionate and likes to gaze at his human while he works. She called the gaze “meaningful”.

Gratitude for Love!

Two years after adoption, he has become very happy and relaxed. He loves to sleep on his human’s lap and hold on to her.

James Bean is a kitty who just needs some love and patience to show his true personality. Consequently, he is grateful to his human for saving him and giving him a comfortable home.
