The 100-Year-Old Cat

During my time working with Second Chance Pet Adoptions, an adopter reached out to share an update about their special-needs cat, Katerina. They had adopted her in 2010 when she was six. Now, at 21, she was well past the 100 in cat years — and still going strong.

I knew I needed to tell her story. I interviewed her owners, Kirk and Heidi, and ended up creating a short documentary about this remarkable cat and the love they’ve shown her throughout her senior years. It was a joy to capture their bond and to highlight the beauty of adopting older pets.
