$1800 and my cat Stella who is the lone survivor of a litter of 7, the only one to make it to 1 month old. She turned 3 last October :)

Monerbros, this is Stella. I got Stellas mom “Whiskey” in 2017 and Stella herself was born on October 22, 2017, along with 6 brothers and sisters. They were born sick, though.
They had worms and fleas, compounding parasitic infections that we didn’t notice until they were about 2 weeks old, 3 of them died before we could even get them to the vet. I was 21 and I was very poor, all my money was in crypto. I drained my checking account, borrowed money from my mom to pay for their treatments, literally broke down and begged the receptionist to ask the owner to let me pay the rest later.
We only got Stella back from the vet. The 6 others died. She was the lone survivor and I would stay up all night, call out of work to make sure she was nursing from Whiskey, that she was warm and safe. She was the size of a mouse, literally a mouse, bros.

She’s more than 3 years old now, Whiskey just turned 5. They’re healthier and happier than ever.

This is around the same time I started DCAing Monero and playing the shitcoin lottery to get more funds to get more Monero with. I have more savings than I ever could have hoped to have, more than any member of my family ever has since we came to this country nearly a century ago. I made Stella her own wallet containing 3.5 XMR and intend to make her one of the richest cats in the world.
Monero cat lives with me, but she belongs to all of us.
