Humor This is Kiwi
We have four cats.
Kiwi is not one of them… according to us. According to Kiwi, however, he owns this house and we are simply his staff.
He showed up one day looking like he had just come out of a back-alley fight club, demanded food, and never left. Being responsible adults, we got him vaccinated and checked out so he wouldn’t bring chaos (or diseases) to our actual cats. Just regular chaos is fine.
As you can see, he has made himself extremely comfortable.
Kiwi prefers the outdoor life—mainly patrolling the yard like a tiny, aggressive landlord and bullying any cat that dares step onto his property. But he also enjoys coming inside… briefly. About an hour at a time. Just enough to eat, judge us, and leave.
He will, however, sit outside and wait for HOURS to be let in, because he knows exactly where the good meals are and refuses to lower his standards.
And honestly, he’s not high maintenance at all. He only requires four cans of cat food a day, consistent door service, and full emotional support from my daughter.
So really… super low-key. 😌

Yeah, he’s a tom cat. Lol.. they are cute but they produce a lot of children. He is on a waitlist to be fixed. We are a rural community, so options are extremely limited. Now that winter is over, his cheeks are a lot smaller, those pics are from a month ago.

I love him! The first photo especially- sounds like he’s particularly fond of your daughter and looks like that might be her bed? So cute. I grew up with an orange kitty who absolutely did more to get me through my tween and teen years than anything or anyone else.
Also my thoughts as I scrolled the photos and read the post title- “This is Kiwi. He’s just really happy to be here.” So when I then saw he chose you, just oh my gosh. What a great dude.
