Just to prove my point.

This was the very first day we found the kittens and brought them home. We didn't know at the time that we'd be keeping ANY of them. Further on, we weren't sure if Marty was going to survive because of his wound.

Look at him now. I had many more pictures but these are the most recent. The last one is a trick that he and I do. He reaches up, stretching and pulling at my pants, and I lift up my leg. He'll either lay there or he'll crawl up and jump on the counter.
