Iggy had a rough start in life.  He first came into our care when he and the rest of his littermates were about 10 days old (along with his mommy).  Iggy is actually about 8.5 months old now.  We've actually fostered him 3 times and decided to keep him.  Long story short, he was adopted out and the adopter did not take good care of him and returned him because he was not using the litterbox.  He actually had pneumonia (it was determined he was sick for at least 2 weeks before she returned him to Kitty Cottage - no wonder he was soiling outside the litterbox - he was trying to tell her something)!  I convinced my husband Jeff that we didn't want to put him through another bad experience with an adopter that would not take good care of him.  He's doing quite well, and of course, is using the litterbox like he should.

Bentley is still a "mommy's boy", following me around everywhere I go.  He's usually my morning alarm clock, waking me up just before the alarm clock does.  He also adores the kittens we foster during "kitten season".  They usually run right over to him when they get a chance, and he mothers them by grooming and holding them (as you can see by the pictures of him and Iggy).
