Sunday

My dad got him as a kitten from some people giving away a litter of kittens. Dad picked him because he was the runt of the litter. The kitten grew up to be a beast. During the day, he loved to be babied and he'd love to sit on our laps being cradled like a baby while we rubbed his neck.

At night, he wanted to go outside and roam so we let him out. After a couple of hours, he'd push his head against our wooden patio screen door banging it to let him in. He'd come in with cuts and scratches all over him and once inside he wanted to be babied again.
