Prom is one of the highlights of our school years, but it also comes with a lot of stress. There are important decisions to be made: what to wear and whom to wear.
“Who to take” is often the most important question. It has to be someone you like, someone you feel comfortable with, someone you enjoy spending the whole night with.
Finding a suitable date can quickly become a huge headache. But sometimes when you have a problem, you just need to think outside the box. Just ask Sam Steinɡard.
Teenager Sam Steingard was struggling to find a prom date, but then decided to solve his problem in the cutest way possible.
She decided to invite her classmate, Ruby the kitty, to be her company!
Although they didn’t enjoy every section of the party due to Sam’s concerns about her fear of people, they still had the most romantic couple photo ever. Sam even dressed her up, gave her a pair of shoes like a real girl who wanted to be queen at the prom. And oh, look how she looked at him!
That touching moment had moved Sam’s sister, Caroline, so she caught the world’s attention by posting the photo on Imgur with the caption, “My brother took our cat to the prom.”
The Steingard family found Ruby behind a Ruby Tuesday restaurant when she was just a kitten and she has been a part of the family ever since.
Now, Ruby has been a part of Sam’s life for over 10 years, and she was more than happy to be her human’s prom date.
Millions of people have seen the image and it has been reposted all over the web. Everyone absolutely loves the goofy couple, and people all over the world swoon over Ruby.
