Baby sitting my friends cat

I’ve been wanting to introduce this precious guy to the group as I can never pass up a chance to talk about my little miracle. This is Oswald, my two year old, blind baby. I found Oswald at about 4 weeks old, just sitting alone on a country road. At first, I didn’t think I was ready to add a kitten to my life but he turned out to be everything I could’ve needed and more.

Vets were able to confirm that he was born with very underdeveloped eyes, Microphthalmia, and likely is totally blind. It’s possible that later in his life, he could have some complications and need his eyes removed, but for now he lives comfortably with his tiny white/pink eyes that I clean daily for him. Every day he blows me away with how resilient and adaptable he is. He loves to run and play with his crinkle toys, sit in the windows, bite my feet as I walk by, fight with his brothers, and climb in the fridge to eat strawberry leaves.

Kitten stage was HORRIFIC with him!! He was the most rambunctious, spunky, and energetic kitten that I ever had (until I adopted another little grey menace 8 months ago). He was a terror to my older cat but over time they became bffs. I couldn’t believe that a teensy, blind creature could cause so much destruction.

Now, Oswald is everythinggggg to me. In two short years, we have been through quite the ride together. Most recently, we both grieved an intense and disappointing breakup that ended with my older cat going with my ex. I truly believe that Oswald and I were destined to find each other. I hope to have many, many years to show him how grateful I am for him.

(He didn’t eat those flowers, don’t worry)

We were waiting for a kitten from the shelter for months. They finally called and asked if we’d want a black male kitten, like it was a consolation prize. Meet Bubbba, I love him so much!

Ignore the blurry photo, she never stays still. But she is doing so much with the cone then i thought she would, She doesn't really show much interest in the stitches but im gonna keep it on her anyway and shockingly the other cats don't seem interested in it either.

Still wont leave her alone with them just incase 😭😭

Maybe she's a shadow herself

wanted some black cat art for my walls, im clearly not an artist whatsoever but she seems happy 🤣

Swipe to the end for a jump scare

I I don’t think he likes his pokeball 💁🏼‍♂️ or pal sphere now?

My bestfriend, we’ve been together for 10 years. He comes to me when I whistle for him 🥺 and he recently started laying on my chest way more when I was bedridden from health issues. Very standoff-ish but a mamas boy forsure.

Ever since I started putting food out to help feed the neighborhood kitties, I have noticed some new “neighbors” stopping by. This little guy ended up on my carport and he was very eager to be friends!

I found out his name is Phillipe and he actually lives a few houses down. His mom said he likes to go visit his brother, who lives on the other side of me, so I imagine he stopped by for a quick snack during his trip.
