Oscar-Winner Lupita Nyong'o Adopts Shelter Cat After Break-Up: "Yoyo is saving me"

Rescuing an animal gives you a wonderful feeling. You feel like a hero in your own little world. This doesn't change the world, but it changes an animal's world. Even the biggest celebrities have had their lives change by bringing home a shelter pet.

"I never understood people whose phones were full of photos and videos of their pets – now I am one of those people!" she wrote. "It may look like I saved Yoyo, but really, Yoyo is saving me." The actress wrote that Yoyo loves food and company, is "extremely careful and rarely drops things," is "very picky about his wand toys" and "can't be trusted around supplements."
