Great stories!

I guess I'm a somewhat new rescuer. We got our first cat in June 2001, from a co-worker whose cat had kittens.

After our second cat in November 2001, I was hooked.

We adopted our third cat August 2002, from a local rescue and then began volunteering at the local Humane Society.

While volunteering with that HS, we adopted two more cats.

Last year, I began TNR with someone I found because of a cat I was feeding at work. We never caught her, but did catch another feral, who we had fixed. She actually escaped from our outdoor enclosure the day after her spay.

We then adopted one of the kittens that the TNR friend caught.

August 2003, we were doing some TNR at my in-laws place of business and caught two females and four kittens. Because of a rare eyelid deformity, we kept two of them and now are a happy, eight cat household.

I'll still do TNR, but wont be able to foster or keep anymore fuzzies. Its soooooooooo hard parting with them, I feel no one is good enough.
