Cat Distribution System

Cat Distribution System is a phrase coined by TikToker @hermes.the.cynic to describe the common occurrence of cats entering people's homes and lives unannounced and inadvertently getting adopted. This cliché is an often-discussed aspect of cat ownership, and adds to the narrative that you don't adopt a cat, but rather, it adopts you. The phrase grew popular near the end of 2022 and continued to be used through January 2023.
