Ok here's the situation.
A buddy at work took in a kitten (about 5 weeks old) last week. Turns out his roommate is very upset as they agreed not to have pets in their apartment. They have 5 months left on a lease and then he plans on getting his own place.
Originally he was going to groom it back to health (it has ear mites, was malnourished, he paid $200 in vet bills to bring the cat back to health) and give the cat away, but he became attached very quickly. His roommate is not budging on the "no pets" issue.
My wife (quintiscential cat mom btw) caught wind of this and offered to take in the kitty. My friend even offered to pay for the kitten's food and litter for the next several months.
The only catch is our apartment complex has a "2 cat" limit. We already have two cats (Wilson and Salem, will post pics later). If the complex found out I suppose they could break our lease. However, the chances of them finding out is probably pretty slim.
Here is a pic of Akira.
**UPDATE**
My buddy brought over the kitty today and of course my wife and I fell in love with it. He still says he'll pay for his vet visits, etc. and will pick him up when he's ready to move. He's a cute little guy.

BTW my wife didn't like the name Akira. She exclaimed "he's such a pip!" and his new name was born 🙂.
