#3 He was not like the other kittens, though; he had a serious condition

"I was warned that he wouldn't live to see 6 months (if he was lucky) and to not become attached," said Kevin's owner Tailah

"I told myself that even if he passed away, I gave him all the loving I could"

#4 “4 years later and he’s still my best little love bug”

#5 Kevin has Hydrocephalus: “It is a fancy word for ‘fluid on the brain'”

It is a serious condition and can impact sight, hearing and brain function.

#6 Kev is a total characteristic of this as he is (not completely) blind and deaf

[However], he shows no signs of nausea and is the happiest little kitten.

#7 His favourite thing in the whole world is playing in his ‘man cave’ and he loves cuddles!

His man cave is the name we've given to his own personal balcony that has been enclosed and fitted with a cat door.
