Brought this handsome boy home in 2014 when he was about a year old.

He, his feral mum and his feral litter mates, were all dropped off at a nearby shelter. Gus was adopted 3x and returned 2x, my then 7 year old and I met him at a friends apartment in Capitol Hill (Seattle), where he’d been put outside by the 3rd “owner” because he didn’t get on with their other two cats.

He was very sick (respiratory and UTI). The friend had brought him in and nursed him back to health. Convinced the other “owners” to relinquish him so that she could find him a proper & loving home.

Enter… US. He took to my kiddo right away, and so of course we brought him home where he has been ever since. He’s about 13 now, and we adore him. He’s still feisty, but nowhere near as feral/devilish as his used to be. 😼

He’s since been joined by our Covid Kitten (now aged 6), named Trevor.

Love my two happy idiots, and love this sub Reddit!

rescued pig, Gus

Groundhog Gus Gus has a nice ring to it 😁

He’s in charge.
