It's "The Tale of the Tornado Kittens."

I have two passions in life:&nbsp;Radio and Animals.&nbsp;I'm one of those people that do not consider my furbabies "pets". I consider them to be family and they are a HUGE part of my life.&nbsp;I have ingrained myself into the animal community in every city that I've lived because speaking out for the welfare of those that can't speak is vital to who I am as a person. And as I've done this, I've found that there is a whole boatload of people that feel the exact same way as me. Their "pets" are more than something they get for their kids or get to guard their homes. They are as much part of the family as a human. A whopping 51% of people stated that in a recent survey.&nbsp;
