And they were all strays, or born from a stray. Already had 5 when I moved here where I am, then made friends with two stray moms who both had 4 kittens, making 15 total. Then another 3 toms came along. Then lastly around xmas a stray kitten (Pip, the grey boy in the top right) showed up at my door in -36c weather, so of course I brought him in.

The only shelter around here has too many cats and will euthanize any brought in so I decided I'm going to do my best to give all these furry rodents love and a place to call home as best as I can, and here we are. It's a killer on the little money I have but they're safe and that's all that matters to me.

Worst part is I'm attached to all of them now lol! I'm not even a cat person...er...wasn't.. I guess I am now.

You're a saint

Thanks. I don't know about that, I've made my share of mistakes and have done a lot of dumb shit in my day. I just can't handle seeing animals (or people) have to struggle to survive. I've been there, it sucks. As long as I can do something about it I will. That's worth more to me than upgrading my old pc or spending money on myself because it makes them happy... which makes me happy.
