    All three cats was given to me by the distribution system. People have been dumping cats for years in the woods around my house. Most of them are completely feral though, so there isnt much more i can do other then set out food and water for them. But these three forced and guilt tripped their way into being apart of my family.

    I found kevin first a year and a half ago, he had some how gotten into my house (no clue how he did it, I just came home from school one day and he was just laying on the couch like he lived here for all his life) and he just refused to leave, kevin forced me to adopt him.

    4 years ago I had a house fire, I lost all 6 of my family cats, when we first found kevin, I thought he was one of my cats, dave, that had passed away, my family thought he could've possibly escaped and lived outside, kevin looked exactly like dave, but he sadly wasnt my old friend.

    My sister named him kevin to honor dave, so every time we talked about kevin we'd be reminded of the cats we lost. Kevin was NOT happy when he found out he had two new brothers.

    Musty and mildew were found in my familys garage which was filled all the way to the ceiling with old boxes filled with junk, old boxes that were covered in mold and mildew and made the entire place smell unbearably musty. Thats how I got their names lol.

    They were found without their mother, only two weeks old, freezing, and starving. There was an ice storm that was coming in the following weeks, so I had to bring them. in because I knew they wouldnt have survived.

    After the storm had passed, I couldnt just let go of them, not after they had been with my family for almost a month. Mildew was a very skitish kitten, terrified of everything, so i knew that rehoming him would've been incredibly stressful for him.

    So, they became a permanent family member. It took mildew four months to finally be comfortable being in the same room as me, now he cannot go five minutes without demanding i have him attention. Musty trusted me the moment he got inside the warm home and he got his belly full of food

    They're all very sweet cats, and they get along very well, im so very thankful they're apart of my family. They honestly give my life meaning, I don't know what I would do without them.

    cattabyss You're a good person, OP. I can't imagine the loss of one cat to a fire, let alone six. :( I'm glad you can remember them every time you discuss Kevin, though.
