We could not afford to keep him. We got so attached to him and his
littermates.His mum had them secretly under a hedge and tuned
up with them at the back door. They were pretty feral to start with.
But not Kevin, he just marched in behind his mum,found the food
and sofa and behaved as if he was born to it.
It took us weeks to tame the others, but eventually they were ready
to be homed. They are spaced across all our neighbours and Kevin
often waits on the garden wall for his mum to come out.
I miss them, but the money paid for his mum to be fixed, vaccinated and
has a better life now.
Sometimes love means letting them go.

Sounds like you did the right thing! Glad Kevin is out there living his best life.
Thank you for sharing. Awww, Kevin.
