The Cat Distribution System is a whimsical theory suggesting that the universe can align cats with the right humans at the perfect time, often through serendipitous encounters. Popularized on social media, this concept has positively influenced cat adoptions by framing unexpected meetings with stray or needy cats as destined connections. As a result, many individuals feel a sense of cosmic significance in these encounters, leading to an increase in adoptions and a greater willingness among people to open their homes to feline companions in need of forever homes.
