Meet the rescue cat named Joy who bears an uncanny resemblance to Baby Yoda, at least in the large pointy ears. The cat was found injured by a humane society volunteer in Kannapolis, North Carolina, who then contacted the Humane Society of Rowan County to care for the cute critter until it can be adopted. But when one woman posted a picture of a cat who looked like baby Yoda, she had no idea it would blow up.
This stray cat found in North Carolina will have no problem finding a forever home after a viral set of pictures has the internet comparing her to Baby Yoda.
Cat Yoda was found roaming the streets and crying until a good-hearted woman brought it to a shelter. A quick vet exam showed that the poor thing suffered from a neck .w.ound and upper 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. The cat was then sent to the Cabarrus Animal Hospital for 𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 where she stole the heart of the staff with green eyes and a black patch on her head and a few on her body is going viral on the internet after users compared her to the Disney+ series’ The Mandalorian’s character Baby Yoda.
The cute cat often sticks her tongue out. And, while someone will look at all of this as a disadvantage, her features add to the cuteness.
Yoda loves company and being cuddled. She is shy at first but loves nothing more than to cuddle and sleep in the lap of the staff.
Despite the rough start, the unique fur baby is known for its love of attention.
“She’s very cuddly, she’s very affectionate, and she’s very sweet,” Rominger said. “Her experiences have not made her into an attack cat. She seems to like people and loves being in laps. She’s going to make someone a very nice pet.”
The cat is believed to be around 1 or 2 years old. While she is recovering, fans can stay up to date on her health status via her own Baby Yoda Cat Facebook fan page.
“She has a long road of recovery ahead of her,” the Humane Society of Rowan County said on Facebook. “Joy will not be available for adoption for some time. If you wish to donate toward her medical bills, we welcome any assistance.”
