'It was well worth the trouble': Man finds a teeny tiny kitten in friend's garden, adopts him, and over the years he gets the most meowgnificent glow up from simply being loved

It's Meownday, feline fam. Meowndays can only mean a few things: 

  1. The work week is starting
  2. We will debate calling in sick to stay home instead of going into work
  3. We will need some heartwarming adoption stories and pictures to help us get through the day

We were already sick last week, so bring on the stories of cute cats finding their furrever homes! This one features a meowgnificent glow up, a garden, and a professional chef. The chef part isn't so impurrtant, but it is cool to say. We don't get many stories about chefs here at the I Can Has Cheezburger offices.

A few years ago, this chef found a teeny, tiny kitten in his friend's garden. After seeing the poor fur baby, his heart couldn't resist doing anything other than loving the heck out of this smol friend. Six years later, and that sad kitten is gone, replaced with a seriously sassy cat and a whole lot of love. The full story is below, enjoy!
