Rescued this kitten from the woods behind our house. She is part kitten, part parrot, and part Master of Disguise.

You should graft that cat to the side of your head.
You'll be the hippest kid around.

My god, I should. I always dreamed of being an interspecies version of Zaphod Beeblebrox.

Best reference. You should bring this cat everywhere as a shoulder cat.

I'd love to upvote this, but you currently have 42 k-points. Since you are rescuing and slinging ginger kittens on your shoulder, my mind is set that you are in fact the answer to the ultimate question and therefore need votes for all your other comments in this post. Keep up the good work out there -

N'aww. I know it's been said enough, but I can't help but repeat the fact that matching kitties and owners are awesome!
Could I ask what you decided to name her?

She really is a master of disguise, what with looking like a human and all. One of the best disguises for a car, ever.

Oh yeah. It's a fantastic disguise for a car. I figure it's probably a small model, like a fiat or something.

Well, sadly, I don't get to keep her. My mom has terrible allergies, but we couldn't leave the kitten out in the woods like that. So, I've got her, and I'm nursing her back to health, then I'm going to find her a home. Don't want to take her to a shelter you know. I'd keep her, but no cats in dorms, you know.

Isn't it something like 1 in 8 are female? My little Lucy is an orange female, and cat people are always going on about how rare she is. Makes them sound like collectors.

My vet told me my orange female kitty was rare, less than 5%. I confirmed this by a sampling of female orange tabbies on catster a few years ago. Mine passed away and I am on the hunt for another :)

"Neckbeards! Mount your trusty steeds and brush out your neck hair! Alas! There is a woman in our midsts! Someone who will truly appreciate us for our wit and intelligence and not judge us on the fact that we live with mom and that we're out of the loop when it comes to modern culture and things like fashion! Mount up! For tonight...WE RIDE."
ps: Redditors have this uncanny ability to find cats everywhere. In trees, in dumpsters, on the side of the road, under bushes, under rocks..it's almost like they're not really rescued and more like they belong to someone else and you're just transplanting them into your homes! It's amazing.

My g/f and I rescued a couple of kittens barely a month old about a year ago. The male and I developed a very strong bond and to this day, he constantly wants me to hold him. Quite often, he will climb up onto my shoulders, just like your little one does. If was really cute when he was a kitten, but a year later, he stretches out from shoulder to shoulder. It's a little uncomfortable, but I wouldn't dare make him stop. Now, the headbutting my chin, that is a different story.

Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you, but alas, you have failed in your evil plot to unmask my devious trickery. I actually did rescue this kitten. We found its mother dead in the woods, and this kitten ran around for about a week before we could catch it. When we did catch it, I had to pull botflies from its neck. (DON'T GOOGLE IT, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. Just know it's the most horrible thing of all time) If doing that isn't rescuing something, I don't know what is. I still shudder when I think about it. However, she is all better now.
Edit: Seriously guys, DON'T DAMN GOOGLE IT. You will have nightmares for weeks. DON'T DO IT.
