Everyone has something they can't stop themselves from nerding out over - but often it's hard to find people to talk to about it. So go ahead, share your interests, and tell us about them!

Honestly, I feel like I discovered a cheat code! It's always a little hard to say goodbye, but I really enjoy having "illegally smol" kittens around, and they don't stay that small very long. I only have so much time, space, and money, so if I want new tiny kittens, I have to say goodbye to the ones that are weaned and healthy. Also, most of the people who have adopted my fosters share updates with me as they adjust to their new homes, so I still have a small connection to each of them and know they're in good homes.

Ooh that's a good solution :) the small kitten phase is certainly uniquely cute. When I was very young one of our cats had kittens (my parents didn't get her spayed quickly enough - luckily the only time it happened), and we kept one from the litter. It's a very special experience!
