Ok I have a good one...and no it's not a purple people eater.  On November 15, 2007 we found a baby kitten that someone had ditched in our driveway.  He was SO tiny and weighed 10 ounces!  He was about 4 weeks old left to die outside in -10 degrees temps!  We had just got back from a wrestling meet for my son and it was dark...very dark.  Now usually we park in the garage but for some reason we didn't that night...I think my daughter was parked in there or something...anyway, out of the corner of my eye I see a tiny THING run towards me...I thought it was a baby skunk at first. Then I look down and this poor baby grabbed my foot and started climbing up my leg!  I told my son...OH MY GOSH!  it's a kitten!  He didn't believe me lol. 

So we took this precious baby into the house and he literally attacked the food...he could not eat well so I had to soften it and even got a bottle to feed him.  He was so young that I still had to wipe his bottom so he could poop!  Who would do such a thing to a cute little innocent baby kitten???? We took him to the vet the next day and he was very sick with many things...worms, upper respiratory infections, you name it!  We got him on meds...he coughed for a month and we really didn't think he would make it.  He did...and he meowed ALOT! lol    So here he is...in all his glory "BABY JACK"

His first hour in our home:



After about a month in our home...doing better but still has a nasty cough.  We are waiting for him to recover before we find him a "HOME". He still meows A LOT! lol 



And here he is a little over three months here...His cough is gone and he still meows A LOT!   I tell my hubby that he's still thanking me.  He doesn't meow like this to anyone but me ;)  lol  We still can't bring ourselves to find him a home. 



Ok here he is (below) 4 months living with us...could YOU give him up!??  LOL  He is now "ours" :)  And he STILL meows a lot and he is just the sweetest thing you are ever going to meet.  I pity the one who ever gave him up to start with!  They will never know what they are missing!
