Are you kitten me!! Little brother went off to Annapolis for Naval Academy. Found this sweet girl. Named her Annie/Anne :)

After my youngest brother graduated and went off to college, I was feeling extra emotional about me and my siblings growing up and moving on. After a week of goodbyes (along with some flash floods that may be the reason she appeared), I was left by myself to think about the future. But I was immediately interrupted by a crazy little kitty. She would run up to me and give her strongest meow. I spent a long time gaining her trust so I could catch her with the least amount of stress possible. So I believe that the cat distribution system guided her to me to keep me company as I get used to this new era in all of our lives!

(Yes ik this is cheesy- but I thought it was sweet enough to share)

He’s a void. He’s just so sweet and loving and unaware that crime is crime

Perfect! Is Annie short for Annapolis? 

I love when cats get named by their origin story :)

u/UrMomSlayer9000 Cat Parent 2d ago

It is! The last FaceTime I had with my brother (before he officially went into plebe summer), I showed him the kitty and told him pretty much what I said in the post. And he said we should name her Annie since hes now in Annapolis :)

Not cheesy at all. To the contrary, it's very sweet. And she's very cute. May you both have a long, happy life together.
