This is real, my friends. This is a tiny, itty, bitty, sweet, purring, meowing, snuggling KITTEN. She’s my niece and her name is Pixel. Our friendsies, Marcella & Luke found her in their… basement!

She was like, the size of a q-tip, and screaming. Luke scooped her up and, true story, tried to feed her tuna and milk. Since she was such an itty bitty bebe, the vet had to teach them the good old bottle feeding technique…. which they quickly learned and repeated, adoringly, every 3 hours. I’ve never seen such devoted kitten parents.

I’m still not ruling out the thought that she may be part possum, part raccoon and part cat. I am like 99% joking, but her little face was like something I have NEVER seen before.. with its bright blue eyes, long white whiskers, tiny mouth, and then this long curly tail. Call me crazy.. eeeer maybe it’s because I’ve never been so intimate with a kitten.. Like all up in that shiz.. Just kiddding, but not. Regardless of what this little baby is, she will be loved. (ok, ok, you’re all like.. wait, wtf? It’s part raccoon?!).. no, no.. the vet confirmed she’s 100% cat. But still..

Pixie is growing up before our eyes, plays, and jumps, and she is amazing. You just want to squeeze her, always. Hugs for Pixie!
