Like all great modern love stories, ours began online—because where else do you find true love these days? With two mutual friends in common, we figured, why not meet up and see if we clicked? Fate (or just really good timing) led us to Pins, where Kris was working the night I was there celebrating a friend’s birthday.

After his shift, Kris did the responsible thing—ran home to let Tucker out (his very good boy)—then came back to hang out. One date turned into another, and another… and, well, here we are!

Of course, no love story is complete without the approval of the original residents. When Kris met my cats, Daisy and Rosie, they meowed their official blessing (which we took as a legally binding contract). Tucker greeted me with tail wags, and just like that, our little family was complete—give or take a few surprise foster kittens.

In November 2023, we decided our hearts (and home) had room for more love, so we adopted Lily. Then in July 2024, we started fostering kittens, thinking, This will be fun! We’ll help them find great homes! …Fast forward, and we’ve fostered 33 kitties so far. Naturally, three of them—Sunny (Ariel), Daffy (Cinderella), and Winnie—outsmarted us and made themselves permanent residents. At this point, we’ve fully embraced our status as “those people” with a small zoo.

From arcade games and bowling balls to chaotic kitten adventures and dog cuddles, our journey has been filled with love, laughter, and a lot of pet hair. Now, we can’t wait to take the next step and celebrate with all of you as we say “I do” to forever!
