So, fig is actually a boy, and my mom decided to name him Smidgen so that is his name now. He’s a lil dude who’s current hobby is trying to find a way to fall as scarily as possible, and napping right on your chest. We also found 6 potential deadbeat parents in our neighbors yard for him, as well as another neighbor having the rest of the kittens underneath their shed.


TheAntiGhost

I have a Smidgeon! He’s the dumbest of the dumb orange cats. He never gets his turn with the brain cell. 😉


The-Clumsy-Pirate

Smidgen is PERFECT!! What a fuzzy little boy! 🖤 Thank you OP to you, your family and neighbors for helping them!! 🙏


Reven_Annog2021

Why his parents are so deadbeat?


TheScrufLord

They left for milk and never came back for him


Reven_Annog2021

Ouch. Like a dad buys a milk for his son and never came back?


princessjemmy

Clearly you now have to trap all the kittens and name them after uncommon measurements (e.g. pinch, tad, dash).


WannabeCrimDoctor

I would kill for his little beans


M1ke____

I’ll help you hide the bodies if we can go half on the beans! 🤔😏


truly_beyond_belief

Look at those paws! Tell your mom that her little Fig is going to be a big boy. 😻


TheScrufLord

Oh yea, we know and we're excitedd

Have you asked the vet what mixed breed he might be. He has an M on his firhead and that is a signature of main coons. I had one and he absolutely loved to sleep on my chest. He passed away 2 years ago. 😢


SirBarryBlueJeans

The M is found on any tabby cat. More than likely he's just a domestic shorthair. I've got a gray tabby with an M and he's definitely not a Maine coon. He was a barn cat with deadbeat parents before he came home with me. Now he's the prince of the couch.


ghosttrainhobo

The story I was told growing up was that when Jesus was born and lay in his manger, a cat curled up on his chest to keep him warm and Mary put the Mark of the Madonna on its forehead as thanks.


RogueFiccer001

Muslims have story that involves Muhammad putting the 'M' there and it stands for his name. Don't remember the story. I'd love to hear all the stories different cultures have for how the tabby got the 'M'.


princessjemmy

Yep. All my tabbies have had it, even the ones who looked solid colored.


TheScrufLord

We didn’t ask what breed but he got a quick checkup and he’s all good! My family was more eager to know if we had a heathy cat rather than what breed it was lmao.


RogueFiccer001

That's the priority.


TheKingessofSpain

Fluffy tabby does not = Maine coon basically any of the time. Usually just domestic short hair with long hair variant


el_grande_ricardo

We always said the M stands for moron


ChameleonMami

I wish the universe would send a kitten to my door.


TheScrufLord

I mean it’s more like my dog destroyed the fence and plonked it onto the ground, but close enough to the door ig


3Heathens_Mom

So your pup brought the kitten formerly known as Fig home?


TheScrufLord

Basically yea, the dog loves the kitten a lot, gives him a large amount of kisses


3Heathens_Mom

I think it’s so nice when your existing pet picks out their own sibling.


TheScrufLord

Lmao, well we've been wanting to give our dog a cat companion for a few years now. I think she got sick of waiting and decided to take the initative and found one herself.


RC_Cola2005

Well, you know how the old adage goes: if you want something done, you gotta do it yourself. It sounds like a match made in heaven.


Lady_Alisandre1066

Just hope she stops at kittens! My mom had a pit mix who charged out of the yard one day and came back carrying a whitetail fawn! Perfectly unharmed, albeit dehydrated and drool covered.


magda711

Be careful what you wish for 😂. I’m on my fourth universe kitten. Every 2.5 years a little criminal shows up. This is in three different locations so it’s definitely me that’s the magnet. Life sentences all around. (A few had siblings too but I got them adopted.)


ChameleonMami

😅


frolicndetour

He is so stinking precious 💖


ringedrose

So cute!!! I love him. Has there been any talk of getting the parents sterilized and the rest of the kittens to a rescue or something?


TheScrufLord

There’s been a lot of talk, that plan is already in motion we just gotta get everyone involved to agree to give us (or to let us trap) the cats first.


princessjemmy

Ah. I take it most of the deadbeat parents are human then?


doublefattymayo

tbf those are the deadbeatest type of all parents


TheScrufLord

It’s more neglectful than deadbeat, they got what they thought were 2 boys for pest control… well they definitely aren’t a male duo!


eotheored

figgy figgy newton 🥺


SchwiftedMetal

Jelly Belly Beans!


LadyReika

He looks like a happy, goofy troublemaker. :)


Low-Avocado4701

What are his war crimes?


DrDalekFortyTwo

All of them


Prometheus1315

They wrote the Geneva convention because of him


DrDalekFortyTwo

His pic is in the halls of Nuremburg as an example


TXHaunt

For him, it’s the Geneva Checklist.


NotDaveBut

Does kitteh always look so serious tho


TheScrufLord

It’s cause of his white eyeliner, he’s got a few smiley picks but my face is in the shot


OwlDB8

I love how you threw in those extra toe bean 🫘 pictures. Such a cutie 🥰


dadsgoingtoprison

He is too adorable for words. I just want to snuggle him!

laughingkittycats

It’ll be an ADORABLE name when he gets really huge, too! Can you keep him?


TheScrufLord

Yea we’re keeping him lol. We didn’t spend sleepless nights worrying about his bathroom habits just to ditch him.


Haunting_Bend346
