i went home for my sister’s wedding 5 years ago & there was a whiny, tiny orange barn kitten that would follow everyone everywhere, even if they were using equipment or had the horses out. his siblings mostly hid in the hay bales but he was always at our feet.
he’s my house cat now bc i was certain he was gonna get himself killed. he has never stopped whining or following me everywhere.
I would love to take this lil guy home, but I can't afford another critter. Hoping that he won't get himself killed. He hasn't stepped under horses yet which is good.
wasn’t trying to shame you, sorry if that’s how it came off. this lil fluff just reminded me of the baby i brought home. hopefully yours is more situationally aware than mine 🧡
Oh I wasn't offended all! I was just lamenting over not being able to adopt the lil bugger lol. I'm really glad you got to take the orange barn kitten that you met home!
I've had a lot of farm cats in my life. Usually when they reach this age at this time of year, they're very likely to live for quite a long time. Winter kittens have a much harder time, because they climb into vehicle engines for warmth. When they're born at this part of the year, they learn to avoid vehicles when we approach them
Cat tax: paid.
Cat: Adorable.
Me: I wanna snuggle dat cat!
Broccoli cheddar is a pretty awesome name for an orange cat. I love him.
Thank you! I named him that because when he was really little and his belly was full, he looked like the full of soup meme
The green eyes don't hurt, either.
Broccoli Cheddar can follow me to the ends of the earth. 😍
In the early 2000s I had a cat named Karmalee. She got out of the apartment. So I'm roaming the streets calling out "KARMALEE!!!!!......... KARMALEE!!!!......."
And a police officer was driving by. He pulled up and asked ".......are you looking for a dog?" And I said "No, a cat." And he said "Oh...." and drove off.
To this day I don't know what to make of that exchange. Like him finding out its a cat just ended the conversation instantly. But he did see/hear me, and before talking to me already could assess that I was looking for a lost pet.
It makes me wonder what he would have instinctually thought if he saw me, a fat guy, walking the streets at 2am as bars are letting out, and I'm just wondering the streets yelling "BROCCOLI CHEDDAR!!!!....... BROCCOLI CHEEEEEEDDAAAAARRRRRR!!!!!"
That's the basis for a decent standup bit if you're that type of fat guy.
Someday they'll be running the show.
Didn't recognise him without you pointing at him :).
Also less illegally smol!!
Lmaoooo. Yeah he's really growing up.
One of the other mama cats has a litter of 3 that haven't even opened their eyes yet. Two orange tabbys and one grey. She shows me them every time I go to the barn. First time she showed me, they were still wet.
Awww!! <3
No surprise everyone likes you tho.
Smol and precious 🥹
