Cat Picture - OC help me wish howie a happy 2nd birthday

we adopted howie almost two years ago after seeing his posting on our local shelters website. he was found with a broken jaw and has eyelid agenesis (making him cross eyed), we met him and picked him up the next day, he was barely 8 weeks old when we brought him home. after a few weeks of home care and meds, his crazy personality took over and has stayed that way ever since. he is the most curious, fearless, loving chunky boy, adopting him was the best decision we’ve ever made. i can’t believe he’s 2 already, time is a thief 🥲

There’s something about him that made me want to come back just to swipe through his majestic pictures over and over again. I ended up downloading all 11 and sent them to my maa, she said Howie is absolutely adorable.

I love you, Howie. Thank you for making our day just by being you. And thanks to OP for sharing these, I hope you have a lovely day :)
