In the summer of 2013, I began feeding a small local colony of ferals (all TNR's). I instantly fell in love with them, and developed a special bond with a big black fluffy cat who I named Midnight. It was love at first sight! He became my friend, and would head-butt me and want my attention all the time. I told my best friend, Melody, about him; she also happens to head up the rescue I volunteer for, and she decided to take him to her house to tame him. I wanted so much to adopt him but unforeseen circumstances prevented that, so Melody kept him with her and I would go visit him on a regular basis and started to bond with him. When Melody thought he was ready to be adopted I cried so much knowing that I would never see him again, but in my heart I knew it was the best thing for a family to be lucky enough to have this sweet little boy in their home. I told my husband how sad I was and he could see how much hurt I was feeling; he agreed that it was time to bring my Midnight home so that our other little kitty, Henry, would have a brother. So in September, 2015, Midnight came to live with us. I changed his name to Fred, and this sweet little boy has been so happy since. You would never know he was born into the world of ferals - he ended up a complete lap cat! He is almost 8 years old and my boys are best friends!
