"We aren't going to keep it"
We ended up keeping her. Who knew after so many nights of bottle feeding I'd grow too attached?
My boss and I were closing up shop one afternoon in April and we heard what I thought was a bird screaming. A moment later, this filthy potato came crawling out from under the back building, all alone. We have a group of strays that hang around, so we looked around and under the building for more, but she was apparently abandoned.
Popped her into a spare carrier I had in the car, took her home, and the rest was fate. It took about a week for the boys to get used to her, but my female tortie kicked into mom mode the first night.
The distribution system has been pretty kind to me over the past few years, it picked an especially cute one this time.
