Arrow's story in spoiler
[spoiler]The big flood we had here in South Carolina destroyed homes, neighborhoods, roads, businesses and even took some lives. What a lot of people didn't think about (including us) were the animals. Hundreds or thousands of animals were lost or killed. We live in an apartment complex that was completely surrounded by water when the flood really hit so no one could leave. The water was [i]rushing.[/i] Anyway after the flood cleared we started noticing some stray cats outside. About a dozen or so of us (residents & dog owners) noticed and started feeding them. That's when we noticed the odd ball. A little kitten that all the other cats were mean to, he was weak and so tiny. Over the course of a couple weeks we would go outside to feed him, we'd push the other cats away or "bop" their heads so they'd run. The kitten started getting friendlier and stronger. However not all residents like stray kittens (he wasn't the only kitten, just the only ignored and mistreated one) so animal control was called. I woke up one morning to my boyfriend looking at me saying "I did something bad." He just took me into the bathroom and there was the kitten. I looked at my boyfriend and said "you know he's ours now, right?" And e just said that he couldn't let animal control take him. I scooped him up and we went to the vet that day, $300 later he's our little Arrow and my best friend. [/spoiler]

Awe (: Good for you guys!
-
More people like this are needed.
-
it's sad how animals get ignored and treated like they're completely inferior
-
More people need to be like you, I say this because when I was little I lived on an air force base (stray cats were common where I lived) and this one stray cat decided to have kittens under someone's porch and the owners of the house decided to get them out from there using a garden hose and almost drowned the kittens. After a couple of week some guards went door to door asking if people wanted a kitten and me and my brother decided to get the smallest one and we still have her to this day

I have two cats and a dog, all saved, mostly from abuse, or neglect. My dog does this thing when I get home where (since he thinks he's a cat) will stretch like a cat, yawn (his tongue is spotted, so it's super cute), and do a loop around my brother and me before letting me pet him.

My cat likes to be waiting in my room after I shower. I'll come back to my room and he's by my tv stand. The second I start putting clothes on, he has to start rubbing all over my legs and walking between me trying to trip me. He's a douche but I love him. Plus he plays with our new puppy unlike our other cat and dog. So, he's the coolest. Haha

6 RespuestasAll my cats follow me around, occasionally meowing. All of them were strays that were near death when I took them in. 2 of them are 15-16 years old and one is probably 5 years old. Mister Diddly Dunkins, Adolf Hitler, and Loco. Bunch of fatties.

That's cool and all, but just remember: dogs > cats.
-
It's..just too...cute!

1 RespuestaCool story, and he looks like a really sweet cat. My girlfriend has 5 rescued cats now, two of which are brothers and two of which are still kittens. All have been through some trauma and bad times, but she always seems to find these gems and bring them home, all sweet and loving. It's cool living with 5 cats.

6 RespuestasI'm curious as to when my cat will die, the guy has been with me for 16 years. It'll be a heartbreak for sure.

I'm more of a dog person. My little homie doesn't upset my allergies like cats do.
