Kitten found in middle of road

I was coming home through town and saw this little white ball of fluff in the middle of road where there was a stoplight. I would have run it over, so I stopped the car and jumped out to pick it up. People behind me and coming down the hill to the stoplight all stopped and watched me. No one was annoyed, honking, or any such thing. I picked it up, put in car, and pulled over to the side of the busy road.

There was an old motel there, but no one seemed to know anything about this dirty kitten with hair missing from its tummy. So she went home with me, got a bath, some supplement formula for kittens, and continued to grow up with us. I named her "Annie" after my co-worker who had passed away recently.

Took her in for a quick vet check and he thought she was about 4 weeks old. Well it is 14 years later, and she turned out to be a large beautiful Flametip Siamese Male weighing in at 23 lbs. Big blue eyes and beautiful cream-colored hair. He now mentors our new kitten who is 1 year old. Like an old man he watches her every move and when she goes out on porch, he is right there watching.
