The useful part

Kittens constantly find themselves in the most unlikely of places before they're adopted. When the Cat Distribution System sends a cat your way, you'll know it's there. They might be right there on the street corner, or they might be abandoned next to your hiking trail, and maybe even in the classic place of the bins behind your house.

How it works

  • We swear that some of these cats are found in such unlikely places, or downright weird places.
  • Mostly, these are kittens, because they're so small they can weasel into so many holes, and because their sense of tenacity is developing very fast.
  • Take this one orange kitten, for example, who was found by a woman walking her dog in a place no other than inside a truck's tire.
  • The kitten was inside the tire itself, right where it connects to the metal frame.
  • Just as this woman was pretty much surprised to find a kitten in a tire, so were we when we heard about it.

Details worth keeping

The cat will meow, and meow, and meow, and you will find him. If that's not some hidden talent, we don't know what is. Orange cats are notoriously cheeky and quite dumb.
