Ten years ago, on Jul 29th (I'm late, again), I brought home a very sickly wee kitten, who weighed just ONE POUND!

Filling the tummy:

Drying off after his bath, and napping with a full tummy:

"HI MOM!"

Feeling and looking a LOT better after 4 days of meds:

So, true to form, he slept on his Gotcha Day this year, as well:

And when he got up, he wanted attention:

To get water in the sink! (His absolute favorite thing in the world. :rolleyes:)

Big and maybe a bit pudgy, he is STILL my "Baby Chestnut!"
