Hello,
I have had Cats Most of my Life and Just cant seam to function without a Furry Partner.. My biggest Joy in my life was "Boots" We found her one day when she and her litter came screaming out from under the house in front of us. She was 1 of 6 in the litter and the runt, Most of them did not even have their eyes open yet but we took them in and bottle fed them for weeks until they were old enough to eat on their own. Long story short we later found that the mom had been killed on the road and that is why they were out looking for her/food. We found good homes for all the other kittens and kept "Boots" She was a fighter and full of life. at the time we let her be an indoor outdoor cat but after a year she got really sick. We took her to the vet and found out she had BobCat Fever and most of the time that means only one thing. But I was determined to save her, 3 weeks in the vet and 2 blood transfusions later and we were able to bring her home but the vet told us that she would have to be an indoor cat from then on. I was able to have her in my life for 9 more years after all. Then in early 2016 I had to say good bye to her due to Liver failure but she really was the lite of my life for 10 years!
Hear are a few Pics....






This is one of the last pictures I have of her... (Good Night My Sweet Lady)


But in late 2016 as if by some reason in the alley next to my shop I found a little kitten that took my heart and she had one to give as well (look on her back left and you will see the Heart!). She was so small that I named her "lil bit"




Then as luck would have it I was walking back from the Auto Repair Shop when I saw this very small kitten running around Down Town and almost was hit 2 times by traffic and I just could not let anything happen to him. So I named him "Lucky" and took him in as my Shop Cat... This pic was taken the Day I found him in November 2017


and Now! 10 LBS later lol! Spoiled for sure


So that brings me to our newest member and maybe the most precious to me is "Misty" Much like Boots I fond her running out from under the house in front of us weak and crying looking for food or her mom. This was taken the day we found her in January

And Now


Sweet as can be and such a joy! I am glad our family has grown. All of my babies are rescues from the wild and I would not take for any of them... There's a reason for everything in life and I feel that is why lil bit, Lucky, and Misty all found me. So now you know my story. Thanks for reading

Welcome to you and your beautiful rescued family! I have a Little Bit, as well, a feral that I try to take care of! Although she won't let me touch her, she does give me a slow blink once in a while.

LOVE those photos! We're so happy that you found TCS!

Hello and welcome to TCS. :wave2:

Condolences on the loss of Boots. :alright: There always seems to be that one cat that grabs a bigger piece of our heart. It sounds like that was Boots, for you. :hearthrob:

Glad 3 new kitties found you. I especially love Lil Bit's heart. :heartshape: Lucky and Misty are beautiful too. :catlove:

Welcome to you and your beautiful furbabies! I love Lil Bits heart, and the other 2 are also both lookers! And thank you for sharing your story about Boots.

I had a cat named Lil Bit that my in-laws adopted after I found her on the porch with 3 siblings, and also had a cat named Monte (your UN made me think of him).
