Cat Distribution System testing me for suitability...These visitors to my porch today seem to be sizing me up for the CDS process.
I had a 20 year old cat die last year, I guess they think I may be ready for new cats.
I am not sure about it yet....these cats came out of nowhere.
Spring babies too.... Mismatched kittens.
I guess since I found out I am getting laid off in July, the cat vine decided I may need some happiness for a change.
My step-daughter says they were meant for her since my last cat was older than she is now.
My wife passed in 2024, my cat passed in 2025.
How does the CDS system figure out who needs a cat? Or 3...
Edit- someone pointed out I had 3 life-changing events in 3 years, so I think this is why the CDS sent 3 cats.
It's the Rule Of Three writ large.
Edit 2. I don't have any idea about the kittens, boy or girl.
I have thought up some names
GINGER for Mama Cat
OREO for mixed color tabby
TIGER for orange kitty
Edit/ update 3
The kitties ran off once they finished off the two cans of cat food.
I am sure they will be back, and they must have a hideout nearby.
Mama Cat is probably a recent stray and has no visible injuries we could see.
She's clean and wasn't scared of me, so I think she was abandoned with the kittens, hopefully they will come back once they confer with the local CDS representative.
My suburban neighborhood has quite a few strays around, like little gangs of them gone feral.
My landlord may not accept 3 cat deposits, but I will try and help these cats out even if I can't keep all 3 of them.
I don't want to parcel out any one of the three.
I have lived here 3 years, and my lease will be renewed in a couple of months....
