Aries passed away suddenly on February 8, 2022 at the age of 6. His memorial page can be found here. ARIES
Aries is our resident superstar! He was found at a local car wash late on a Saturday night army crawling out of the bushes by a teenage boy whose whole family are animal lovers. They took him in that night, but knew they were in way over their heads. They put out a Facebook SOS the next morning. The magic of networking led that post to us, and I (Mimi) immediately contacted them and went and picked him up not knowing what we were getting into besides a kitten paralyzed from the waist down.
3D is the mama of the *only* litter of kittens ever born here at the Commune to date. She was found already pregnant in a parking lot in south Houston right after we moved here in 2011 and before we had any connections in the area.

Ash was one of a batch of kittens that the Commune took in less than a week after Aries was found. At only a few weeks old they were slated to be put to sleep at Harris County due to a lack of space. There were 4 total. Eventually 2 were adopted – Sooty and Flame; Lumiere and Ash remained at the Commune. Ash stayed at the Commune due to some very strange issues with his front feet as a kitten. His front legs were bowed out and his paws did not work correctly.

Autumn is a very special girl. She is a pet as opposed to a Commune Cat, but we are posting her here just to show her off! She was abandoned by her mama when she was about 3 weeks old. Her eyes were sealed shut with infection, and she was nearly dead. Overnight feedings, antibiotics, and lots of love later, she quickly became an integral part of the household!
