Barbara Bates, the adoption coordinator for a Texas animal shelter, was there with her camera when 102-year-old Iona L. and 2-year-old Edward discovered each other.
“It just filled my heart,” Bates says about the scene in the shelter lobby. “The kitty just snuggled right up to her. Matched her outfit she had on.
“I said, ‘Iona, do you mind if I take your picture?’ And she said, ‘Honey, I sure hope I don’t break your camera.'”
