"New kitten"
"Hi! My dad found this kitten at his office yesterday next to her deceased mom :( I spent a few hours with her today and I'm heavily considering adopting her. I didn't grow up around cats, but have owned dogs in the past so i feel like i understand what it takes to have a pet. I do however feel very unaware of the needs of cats, and want to make sure i understand how to give her (?) the best life before committing to taking her home! Any and all advice welcome I live in a home with no other pets"

"Help me name my foster fail"
"This little guy stole my heart the moment saw him! He doesn't weigh enough to get neutered yet but once he is (hopefully this week!) and gets neutered, I'll be signing the paperwork to switch him from my foster kitten to my adopted kitten. I have 2 adult cats already, their names are Peanut Butter and Jelly. I've thought of so many options for his name but haven't found the 1 that feels right yet. I've nicknamed him wee-wee because that's the sound he makes when he tries to meow but that's not a very nice name lol He responds to it now though so maybe something with an "ee" sound to it? Idk, please help!"

"Just adopted 3 month old kitten. I want to go back for her brother. Will there be any issues?"
"I adopted the sister on Saturday and feel bad about leaving her brother. Would they still recognize each other? She's been great and there hasn't been any adjustment needed, she's been kneady and purry since she got home."

"The cat that adopted me"
"Back in August this dude was chilling on the side of my house. Very sweet, vocal, and so far cuddly. My mom and I started feeding him to see if he returns often enough to keep around. Well 3 months and 2 hurricanes later he practically lives in our front yard and greets me every night I come home from work. His current name is Greyscale/Grey which is subject to change to either Spirit, Fog, or Ash (something to match my current cat named October). Unlike other strays in my neighborhood he never ran out of fear and is very comfortable with other people (other strays he gets feisty with) so we believed he used to be someone's pet. A lot of trust has been built and now we're making a vet appointment for him to be checked for fleas, worms, and other diseases before officially taking him inside."

"I went to the SPCA to adopt one cat I saw on their site..."
"...but he was away on dental leave. So Bunny here was out of her cage having a walk-around, and she picked me to take her home. I knew 100% she was my little one. Eleven years and 2,000 pictures later, neither of us could be happier. (First pic is the day we brought her home.)"
