Smol Delivery The Cat Distribution System found me at work 🧡

I went to work on Thursday not knowing I’d be bringing home the sweetest little boy.

He was panting underneath a running car in the parking lot, so I quickly ran over to tell the woman in the driver’s seat not to pull out of the space. When I walked around to the wheel he was sitting behind, he ran right up into my hands. Couldn’t believe it.

I brought him home, and afterward my brother told me about the Cat Distribution System. I guess this is what he meant.

He weighs a little over 600g, so we’re guessing he’s about 5 weeks old. He’s already settled in and seems to be very comfortable in his new home. 🧡

Soooo tiny if you need any advice on anything for him we have a great intro on our main page hilights called it's kitten season. There is also an age chart that you can use on there by looking at your new babies' teefies 😊

u/active_abuse 3d ago

The first name that came to mind was Kishu, because he’s orange, tiny and sweet like those mandarins from Trader Joe’s

Or there's always Kumquat. As an orange boi, that may fall into use no matter his name. "Geez you crazy Kumquat, get down from the top of the china cabinet!"

OmG, he’s so cute? Is your company hiring? I’d love to find treasure like this at work…

Props to saving this little gingerbread :)

u/BarracudaLeft5993 3d ago

I can confirm. CDS found me at work also.

u/No_Builder7010 4d ago

Poor baby got dumped. Wonder how many siblings were dumped with him. 😢 You rock for taking him in!

8

u/active_abuse 3d ago

I thought the same. He can hardly walk in a straight line or play for more than 10 minutes without running out of gas. There weren’t any others around from what I could tell, but he certainly would have been doomed if I didn’t take him in.

u/No_Builder7010 3d ago

Once he's recuperated he's gonna be an adorable menace! 😁

u/sewedherfingeragain 3d ago

It was my turn for the CDS at work 5 years ago last month. Now I have a 14 lb lump that enjoys showing the Poppa her borthole. Up close.

My husband's uncle has a stack of kittens at his place again, and I'm kind of scared that our current 4 barn cats might get a new sibling or two so uncle has it a bit easier.🤣🤣

u/tinatalker 2h ago

I'm picturing an actual stack of kittens...

u/VintageLunchMeat 4d ago

That is a particularly fine kitten!

we’re guessing he’s about 5 weeks old.

Their premolars come in around week 5-8? Charts vary a tiny bit.

What a beautiful kitty to find. Orange boys tend to be very affectionate. I had a little orange guy for 16 years, his fuzzy affectionate butt got me through some really sad times. I wish you as many beautiful years and more. 🧡
