Most cats are generally cute, and even if they're not as adorable as they get older, they're still quite beautiful. However, some cats only get more beautiful as they grow up. They might be cute as kittens, but not particularly pretty, but they become stunning as they grow up. Like this pet owner's cat, when they first brought it home, it wasn't very eye-catching and even looked a bit gloomy. But after a year, it underwent a dramatic transformation, becoming almost unrecognizable—like a little lion.

The owner found the cat on the street. On their way home from get off work, they saw a furry, dirty little thing moving around in a pile of trash. At first, the owner thought they were seeing things, but then it moved again. They went over to investigate and discovered the kitten.

The kitten was rummaging through a pile of garbage for food. Its fur was filthy, with bits of dirt stuck to it, and it smelled strongly of garbage. Seeing the kitten like this, the owner couldn't bear it. The owner loved cats but hadn't owned one before because it wasn't the right time. However, after meeting this kitten, the owner felt they couldn't leave it alone and, after thinking for a while, decided to adopt it.

The owner tentatively called the cat twice, and the cat turned around upon hearing them. Seeing its owner, the cat ran over. The owner bought the cat some treats, and after the cat had eaten and drunk its fill, the owner turned to go home. The cat followed behind. After bringing the cat home, the owner gave it a bath, making it look much better.

The cat is very affectionate. After officially settling into its owner's home, it loves to stick close to its owner every day. Whenever the owner is home, it looks for them and wants to be with them. The owner is very fond of this cat and enjoys the feeling of the cat being clingy. As time goes by, under the owner's care, the cat has become more and more beautiful.

The owner took photos of the kitten while raising it. Now, after a year of raising the kitten, the changes are obvious. The kitten has become an adorable "little lion," completely different from before. However, the kitten is still very cute and affectionate.

Netizens commented: "She's really good-looking; stray cats have potential."

The owner also shared photos of the cat online, and many people commented that the cat was really beautiful and the owner was incredibly lucky.
