Adopted shelter kittens and kittens from rescues can make the very best lifelong companions. During 'kitten season' shelters are overflowing with kittens to choose from. You can help free up shelter space for more needy cats by adopting two or more kittens. Share your adopted kitten photos and stories here.
If you couldn't resist one or more of these shelter kittens and have given him or her a forever home, share your happy ending story, including up to two photos, with other readers.
Read the stories, then post your own with an easy form
