    AlternativePrior9559 ⚫ Top 1% Commenter This was an absolutely wonderful story, it made me teary for all the right reasons. Every living soul deserves a home and love and this gorgeous boy now has both thanks to you. The love you will receive in return will be tenfold. My very own soul kitty was found wandering alone on a busy European street. Fighting for what food and water she could find. Here she is living her best life and I'm incredibly thankful for the joy she has brought to my life.

    Lady_Andromeda1214. Wanting to piggyback off your comment because I am of the same mind...every creature, great and small, deserves love and a safe space to call home and this story was so touching and beautiful, as was OP's! Thank you to the both of you for saving such precious lives and giving them love and a safe place to call home.

    yukishironekogaming OP. You're welcome and thank you. Mikan's been adjusting well to home life. He has been separated from my other cats for now so he can adjust and decompress. He doesn't have to keep one eye open while he sleeps. He slept so deeply and peacefully now than he ever did for the past months. Even when I'd come into the bedroom, he did not stir.
