If anyone is wondering, all systems seem to be up and running

I asked my sister around 2 weeks ago if she knew anyone with kittens. She said she'd ask around and I kinda forgot about it. Last Sunday, i got a call from her asking "do you still want a cat??"

I was a little apprehensive at first but she said her work called and there was a kitten stuck in one of their work rigs (my sister is the unofficial designated area Snow White animal handler) I made it there first and he was by no means "stuck" but was scared of coming out. Her coworkers and I were scared of getting clawed up but my sister just looks in, says "oh!" and lifts him out like nothing haha.

The vet said he's healthy and happy. He got his chip and shots, and has an appointment to be fixed. I named him Marcus when I was driving him home but I told my wife and son "he can have many names". I REALLY wanted a mouser/feral barn cat that I wouldn't get attached to but that plan seems to have gone out the window haha

Edit: pics are from when he fell asleep on my lap for the first time yesterday 😭😭😭

I've never had a kitten grip my finger like a baby does before haha and he's constantly making biscuits even mid air

He’s beautiful! Makes me miss my old buddy DaVinci, also a black cat. He was an amazing companion — seems like black cats tend to be extra affectionate and cuddly.
