When the cat distribution system gifts you with a cat, you never know which kind of kitty you are going to be blessed with. Of course, no matter what, you say thank you to whatever greater being out there decided to gift you said cat, but you also, in your heart of hearts, hope that you won't end up with one of the criminals. We know you know what we are talking about. Kittens. Kittens are the most dangerous criminals of all. And that is not because cats commit fewer crimes as they grow older, it's because when a kitten commits a crime, its cuteness overpowers you every single time, and you can never say anything to them about it.

And on this meowgical day, next to this 7-11 dumpster, this woman adopted a tiny kitten criminal. She didn't know this at the time, obviously, but she couldn't have fought it if she tried. She was chosen, and after that, there was no going back. And now, that little criminal is running circles around her in her own home, and as expected, she is loving every second of it.

Oh, you could see, just by looking at its mischievous little face, that he was going to bring trouble. And a lot of it. And every little bit of it would be the best moment of your life. Yes, every time. This little criminal is too cute to ever get mad at.

Goodness, kittens are so curious at this age, we cannot help but love it about them. What he could possibly be looking for in your nostril, we don't know, but we wish we did. We wish we knew what is going on in those little brains of theirs. It must be so colorful and fun.
