While many people focus on the amenities and appliances when buying a home, Tori and Alex had a different priority in mind – they wanted a cat.
They had just moved from Washington D.C. and were longing for a breathtaking mountain view.
However, they also had a deep desire to have a furry friend by their side. Little did they expect that their dream home would fulfill both of these wishes.

During a tour of a potential home, something magical happened. As they were enjoying the breathtaking mountain views, a friendly cat named Loki appeared and greeted them with a playful saunter.
Loki wasn’t just an ordinary house cat; he was incredibly outgoing. It’s safe to say that Tori instantly fell in love with Loki’s charm and couldn’t resist bringing him into their lives, as she shаrеd for Fox News Digital :
“He rolled onto his back, looking for rubs. So, I’m all into petting this cat – and that night we made an offer on the home.”
A Tour With A Twist

When they were doing the final inspection of the house, Tori jokingly mentioned wanting to keep the cat.
The seller didn’t plan on leaving his beloved pet behind, but he expressed his worries about Loki adjusting to a smaller space after they moved. As Tori mentioned:
“He said he thought Loki would prefer to stay in this house because he (the owner) was going to be downsizing. He (Loki) loves to be outside and he is always chasing lizards.”
An Unexpected Deal

But here’s the twist – he also suggested including Loki and some air purifiers in the deal! Tori continued:
“On the seller’s counter offer to ours, he dropped the price down. But he said, ‘I’ll include the cat and the air purifiers.’”
This was a new experience for Tori’s realtor, Crystal Richardson, who had never seen a cat being part of a real estate transaction before.
