Beavis* was born in a dumpster and found by a neighbor who happened to be a veterinary student at a local university. Just days old, Beavis moved in with our neighbor who bottle fed him while he looked for a good home for his latest “house guest”. Once Beavis was weaned off his formula and eating solid food, he moved in with us and became our pet.

*Beavis is the original name given to our cat by our neighbor’s sons. His name was changed when we adopted him, but as anyone who’s dealt with a cat crazy with allergies knows, Beavis is probably a more fitting name. We use it here to “protect his identity” 🙂
