Almost a year ago now, we brought Bobby, our trikitty home. He's been such a wonderful addition to our family! We drove about 2 hours to the shelter he was at. . And when I saw that the shelter was doing an adoption event in my town, of course I had to go to say hi! I intended to make a Donation, say hi, and head to my dad's for the weekend. . Instead I came home with a 
:D. Yup. . Bob is a big brother to our new kitten, Jack. Named by my son. He had a start to life similar to Bob. While he has all of his legs, he had major surgery when he was only a few months old, to remove a polyp in the soft palette of his mouth. They saved him from essentially starving to death. And now or family is officially busting at the seams. Almost. :D.

Lori, so cute!!! This is the reason I do not visit shelters. I would Have to bring at least one home. I know I would be a foster failure also.myp, we understand crazy here. I have 3 pups and a cat in our house and 6 cats that live in my barn. Not mousers though, they go through a ton of cat food. LOL There are that many because people think barn= drop off center for kittens. I don't have the heart to take them to the shelter. I bet Bobby is happy for a playmate. Love the picture! Little guy looks like, not real sure about this. Hugs from Lori, Ty and the gang

Oh boy do I know the feeling 
We added a little bit of crazy ourselves this weekend with a new pup....and ya know, all any of these guys need is a warm bed, a little bit of food and to be surrounded by compassion, and what they give in return is priceless. Congrats to you guys, he's one lucky kitty!!
