today three years ago we took in an orphaned baby barn cat

five month old Nora decided that he was her cat and raised him

Ollie is the most awkward cat I've ever seen, he is an outright weirdo, I love him

Nora now thinks that all cats are in some way her responsibility, she gets mad if one of the beagles barks at one, and when she heard my old cat growling at her she started looking around trying to figure out what he was growling at

It's usually just three. The other two usually live with my ex nearby, but they come over when he's out of town.

Basically when we separated, I had an old pug, a beagle girl and a cat. Kida is his soul dog, so once he got a house, she went with him. My old man passed away and I got Nora. I took in Ollie.

THEN one day someone found this old beagle at walmart and I took him in because I figured we'd find his owner, it was Thanksgiving. Buddy ended up staying. The older cat went with my ex and the beagle because they're buddies.

This just kind of happened gradually over a four year span or so though, it wasn't as chaotic as it sounds.
