In 1992 we were leaving for a day of sailing with friends in San Diego. As we left our apartment building we heard crying, looked down and inside a shoe box was a very newborn small kitten, he still had his umbilical cord! We immediately went to the local pet store and got kitten replacement milk which he took to right away. So we packed him into a basket with a heating pad and took him sailing with us! He weighed only 3 ounces and the vet said not to get attached. We were determined to keep him going and almost 18 years later he is still my baby, in great shape and follows me around until I pick him up and put him over my shoulder!
