most of my followers know this dude already but in case anyone doesn't, this is jarvis.
my dumbass idiot neighbors were keeping him exclusively as an outdoor cat. which...keeping an adult cat outside is already a shitty idea, keeping a kitten outside is just straight up insane. We have coyotes and hawks for fucks sake and the kitten almost got hit by a car like at least twice.
anyway, i decided to steal him. I figured it was the best thing to do for him. My brother who lives five hours from me was coming to visit that weekend and he had been looking for a kitten for months, so i already had a good home lined up for him.
any guilt i felt about grabbing him immediately faded away when i realized he was absolutely filthy, covered in fleas and had a sore behind his ear.
it has been about a week since i grabbed him off the street. he's safely in Tallahassee with my brother and his roommates who are spoiling him rotten and i honestly dont think my neighbors have even noticed.
so yeah i fully endorse "stealing" outdoor cats.
