'I guess I have a cat now': Cute kitten abandoned at dog rescue center, employee agrees to "only foster" but falls in love and adopts the baby after one night

This is exactly why we don't foster cats - because we will 100% get attached to them, fall in love, and end up with 400 cats in our house. Especially if the foster is a kitten. We simply can't resist their purrfect pull, their gross (as in large) gravitation, their luscious love! When the time is right for us to get a new cat, we put a box outside and wait for the Cat Distribution System to deliver one to us. We'll leave fostering to the people with stronger hearts and wills than we.

But, if a tiny orange kitten were to show up at our workplace, who are we to say no to this chance occurrence of feline fate? That's what happened below, although it did show up at the opposite rescue center! Upon being found at a dog rescue center (only an orange would show up at a dog shelter and not a cat one), one employee offered to foster the cute kitty for a night or two until they found an alternative solution. They lasted longer than we would have, and after one night, they caved and decided to adopt the fuzzy feline for themselves. The ginger, now named 'Ziggy', gets along purrfectly with her pups and is living his very best happily ever after. See more of Ziggy below!

So. Smol. He's literally the size of that tiny soda can. How could you not adopt him? It would be a crime to give his tiny little soul away to someone else. He needs you to love and protect him. He also needs head scratches. Right now.

Yeah, honestly, they never stood a chance. His cuteness level was too high. It's like going up against the final boss when you're only in the beginning of the game, you might get one hit in, but they've already K.O.'d you before you had the chance to realize it.
