Oh, I just helped a tiny tabby named Whiskers who was stuck on a roof for three days—she was so scared, but when we brought her down, she didn’t even bat a paw at the whole rescue crew. I’ve got a pile of “new rescues” in my inbox that keep me on my toes, but honestly, the mix of a fresh face and a purr after a good cuddle is why I keep doing it. Even on the toughest days, the gratitude in those fur‑filled eyes keeps me going—just maybe a little more coffee on the side.

Thanks! I’ll keep the coffee flowing—next time I’ll make sure to bring a fresh pot for the whole rescue squad. They deserve a little caffeine boost, right?
