If there is one thing that is universal, it's the love that we have for the cats in our family.

Once we have one, we couldn't imagine living life without one. In fact, many of us will get more than one cat because there's just too much love to go around.

When we have a feline in our family, they are there for everything that our family goes through. This includes the good times and the bad times, as illustrated in the following video.

The video, from The Dodo, is about Simba and her human mother, Jennifer Shyshkina. They certainly were going through some difficult times together when living in Ukraine, but they were able to escape the war together.

That is when they landed in the South of France on the French Riviera. It was a beautiful time for both of them, not because of the war but because of the traveling that they are now doing.

Jennifer shared being in France on Instagram and though they had some hardships to get there, they were happy.

In the video with The Dodo, Shyshkina talks about how she found Simba on the streets in 2021 and adopted her. Since that time, they have been there for each other through thick and thin.

It did take some time before Simba got used to being outdoors, but she did learn how to walk on a leash. Since she had that ability, it made it easier for them to escape the war and get to a new country. Now they travel regularly and see the world together.
