    Hi everyone, Bond really is a sweet guy and we're so glad he's part of the family... as you can see in the video, after losing Cole and then bringing Bond inside during really cold weather (he had a insulated heated house on the porch)... we decided the time was right to keep him indoors, "BoCa" Bond and Calypso are such a purrfect match, they have their own shirts too if you wanna check them out: www.bonfire.com/bocaheartsnuggle

    I've had 7 cats total in my life. The sixth cat we had was the first kitten we literally rescued from the streets; he lived to be 18. Our seventh and current cat is 12 years old and still acts like a baby. He was also rescued from the streets as a kitten. Rescue pets make the best pets.

      Yeah it was a long time, I forget how long he was in our yard for, he had heated shelters and didn't wander off... but then when he started letting us pet him was while we were dealing with Cole's illness and we were debating what to do.... then he was on our porch for a few weeks at night, then permanent and used the litter box straight away, then we knew he was getting closer and closer to being inside and we weren't going to look for another home for him!

    I've always had the belief that there are some homeless cats that can sense they are in danger when they're outdoors and why it is so easy for them to adapt to being an indoor cat. It's almost like 'okay, I am not safe out here, I need to find my human' and once they find them, there's little to no transition needed. I think Bond knew if he stayed outdoors, he wouldn't survive long and sought you out, Chris. That and I know Cole had his paws on Bond's rescue.

They were the most loving and chill kitties we ever had. They came from a colony, so I think it was easy for them to adapt to our other cats. It was the most rewarding experience we have ever had, truly.

I rescued another black kitty on my porch during a storm. Lucky was a sweet boy who loved Hobbes so much that he died 6 months later. Shortly before, a little black kitty joined the crew. Mr. Meowington is still with us along with Storm, our Husky & Mario, my Shetland Sheepdog!❤❤❤

    Marm was probably thinking "why did you buy me a replica?" 😂
    Also Calypso's face at the end when Bond was snoring his head off was so saying "Can you hear what I have to sleep with?!" 🤣
    Love it, you guys are amazing and I hope you and your kitties get all the happiness you deserve 🧡

    You know, it's nice to have more than one orange tabby cat in your family.😃 Heck, you succeeded in finding Cole's spirit, too!😊
