Omg.

We were up to 6, chain reaction of cats really.

Last two of those, found one standinf in traffic, ran out and scoped her up, we were close ever since. Second was my wife's foster fail, turned out she was pregnant and didn't know.

Last one was a tortie who got attached to me, haven't done a ginger yet, used to do a ton of bottle babies, those were painful.

I'm not doing any more bottle babies until I'm collecting Social Security and don't have to work or sleep.

Omg they're exhausting but the best, they took me (and my wife) a lot of work at first to get the trick of feeding, and the pee/poo thing is unpleasant, but they're so incredibly cute and sweet, our first fail is a bb.

But they often don't litter train as easily and make a mess, so thats a problem, they're a ton of work on par with a human baby.

On par except that are three of them at once.

Orange cats are so special and unique. I have two brothers and they couldn't be more different personality wise. They're my first oranges. One weighs 22 pounds and the other weighs 10.
