They named him Pinot

As Sarah brought this baby cat home, the first thing she needed to do is name him, and so she this kitten would be called “Pinot” from that day onwards. And although Leslie was well aware that Pinot is in the best place he could possibly be in at the moment, she felt sad parting from him. She really wished she could adopt him.

It wasn’t easy

“I’ll admit that it was really hard to give Pinot away,” Leslie told LoveMeow. “He was just this brave, determined little soul who wanted to survive, and was the cutest kitten we had ever seen.” Leslie was truly infatuated with this little kitten and we can’t really blame her, we would have been too.

They were satisfied

Regardless of the missed opportunity, Leslie took comfort in the fact that Pinot was still in the family and she could visit him anytime she wanted. Some would say Pinot here was getting best of both worlds.“It made me really happy that my sister took him in,” Leslie said. “Because I knew I’d get to see him grow and I could always visit him.”

Pinot’s visit to the vet

Unsurprisingly, little pinot was having a similar effect on Leslie’s sister. Indeed, it was a case of love at first sight, as the moment she laid her eyes on this delightful little fuzzy kitten she was awestruck! She was determined from that moment that she will bring him back to health. Following that day this kitten made several visits to the vet, very soon Pinot would feel right as rain again.

He possibly could’ve died!

Although fortunately, the couple decided to take this kitten home with them, they believe things could have gone down very differently for little Pinot if they had not sheltered him when they did.  “My sister Sarah was seriously an angel,” she gushed. “I am convinced that he would have died if we hadn’t brought him home.”

He was mischievous little one

Now a year after Pinot had been rescued, he is in a bl00dy good shape. and this (no longer little) tomcat loves nothing more than causing a ton of mischief.  “He is obsessed with Q-tips, to the point where Sarah has found them scattered all around her bathroom,” Leslie revealed. “And [he] loves watching birds from their apartment window.”
