Get ready to cry when you see this heartwarming video of a stray cat finding his forever family.

And it looks like from this video, it was meant to be for Pistachio, the cat, and his new family!

Pistachio, who appears to be a Tabby cat, seemed to form an instant connection with the Orange Catsin this family, named Cashie and Almond (we assume Pistachio was his adopted name).

The trio of kitties enjoys lounging on furniture and cat trees, grooming each other, watching TV, and taking walks together on their leashes.

How To Welcome a Stray Cat Into Your Family

When welcoming a stray cat into your family, the first thing to remember is patience.

You have to move slowly when welcoming a stray kitty into your home.

First, offer them food, water, and a safe and separate space from the other cats and animals in the house.

For a cat who has been living outside, a sudden change like this could be very overwhelming.

Once you've done that, you should take the new kitty to the vet as soon as possible to make sure they don't have any health issues or injuries, as well as fleas or parasites.

After all this, the new cat should be introduced to the other pets in the house with supervised visits.

Help bring routine to the stray cat's life with their own bed, litter box, and daily schedule.

Clearly, Pistachio had a smooth transition into his forever home and took to his new family right away, but other kitties may take a bit longer to settle into their new lives.
