I found Dan last Friday, and Dan absolutely loves me, and I love him just as much. He has alot to say at just 3 weeks old. If anyone speaks kitten and cares to translate, let me know in the comments. At so young and age, he looks great and is cuddly and affectionate. No problems eating or using the bathroom, especially on me lol. When he sleeps, he has little kitty dreams, probably about being a cute little void gremlin. He loves playtime and is very particular towards little mouse toys. We have many years of adventures and memories ahead of us, and I will miss days like this where he's so tiny and fragile, but I very much look forward to seeing him grow and become such a handsome cat. Now without further ado, take it away Overlord Dan!

The things you'll find playing Pokémon Go! I first found my current job that I've been at for over 5 years, Ive found various small items and money, and now this little guy. So I was walking around a Chevron up the road from my apartment, and Im catching Mons and listening to the sounds of nature when I hear this squeaking that caught my attention. I stopped and Im listening, but I only heard it once. So I keep walking on this path, and I hear it again, only closer. I take a few more steps and I think he heard me because now Im hearing "Mew Mew Mew" coming from a position below me, not above. I swear, at first I thought it was a weird bird noise. And I see this lone little guy huddled against a retaining wall on the border of the woods and the parking lot. So I hop down to where he is, Im looking for more kitties, maybe a mama cat, but I see and hear nothing but this guy. He's kinda stumbling around toward me, so I extend my open hand and once he's on my hand, he scurries up my arm and Ive got him cradled against my chest.

Pokémon hunt is officially over, the mission now is to get him home. Luckily my home is about 5 minutes walking distance, so we're going, and as Im walking he's mewing like 1,000 times a minute and crawling up into my beard. Im looking around occasionally to see if maybe his mama hears him and comes running in tow, but didn't ever see her. I can't help but wonder about how tiny this guy is. I can't tell for certain, but he's gotta be about 2-3 weeks old maybe. His eyes are open, he's very vocal, he can walk but he stumbles around, and hes got no little teeth yet. I'm also wondering how he got to be in such a weird location on his own. Because hes in the woods on this hill, theres thick pinestraw around, it'd be very difficult for a little guy to maneuver on his own.

I get home, thank God my sister is there because I knew I was keeping the little guy, but I had to be at work in about an hour and he was definitely hungry. She lends me some money, I go to Petsmart and get some formula and a bottle, go home and she takes charge of feeding him while I go to work.

Ive heard at least 4 people throughout the day mention the "Cat Delivery System" and I guess that means I have been chosen by Little Dan to take care of him. I feel blessed and honored woth such a wonderful responsibility. And I figured this is the place to share such a story. So without further ado... Meet Dan!
