Love that cute little kitty. The gray and black strip is one of my favorite cats. I had one like this when I was a kid and he had a very unique name "Corn field Cat". Guess where I found him? Give kitty an extra pet for me. Carole

Oh what a cute little guy. Good for you going back and getting his friends, (hope they were litter mates) They are so much fun and grow up to be a lot of company. We have 4 kitties. All rescue cats. People always told me "you cannot tame a feral cat. Well not so, one was so wild she would run if you opened the door. Took two years to get her to trust me. She was having babies and was so big she couldn't get food on her own. I fed her and talked to her every morning for about a month. a couple weeks before she had her babies, I got to touch her. She brought the babies for me to see when they were about 5-6 weeks old. She was by the door and kept walking a few feet and looking back, figured she was asking me to follow. she led me out by the garage and then went sideways, OK I will stop, she waited a bit to see if I would stop and then called one of the kittens out. Then a second and then a third. Was just amazing. We eventually tamed the kittens and MAMA, found homes for two of the babies and let her keep her favorite. Eventually we brought them indoors. They still do not like going to the vet, but the put up with it to have a nice warm place to stay in the winter. The other two are tuxedo's, both were strays that were abandoned.
