That's pretty much how Zenzero showed up. His new human heard a little cry outside after dinner but didn't think much of it at first. Then it came again, only louder and more consistent this time. Eventually, there was clearly a very small someone outside demanding to be noticed.
As soon as the door opened, Zenzero took his chance. The tiny orange kitten climbed right up and made his way inside. Apparently, all he needed was someone to open the door.
A trip to the pet store quickly followed, because you can't exactly have a surprise kitten move in without picking up a few supplies. He was given the name Zenzero, Italian for "ginger," which suits this tiny orange guy pretty well.
His new human thinks he's around six weeks old, and he already has a vet appointment scheduled in a couple of days. Zenzero seems much more interested in his human than any upcoming appointments, though. He's taken to hanging out on their neck and apparently isn't too eager to come down. For a kitten who only just arrived, he's gotten comfortable remarkably fast.
The resident ladies of the house are having a slightly harder time adjusting. They're apparently terrified of their new roommate, which is pretty impressive considering said roommate is a teeny orange kitten. Hopefully, with some time and careful introductions, they'll decide he isn't so scary after all. Maybe he'll even have a couple of new cuddle buddies soon.
Zenzero really didn't waste any time getting himself settled. He cried outside the right door, climbed inside the second it opened, got a pet store haul, earned himself a name, and found his favorite spot on his new human.
Not bad for one little kitten's evening.
