Word Count: 100

Disclaimer: I don’t own Hellboy, or the characters. They belong to the brilliant Mike Mignola.

A/N: Written for a three-sentence prompt at comment_fic some time (possibly a couple of years) ago and recently expanded into a proper drabble because I wanted to. Needless to say, there are now more than three sentences.

He’d always liked cats; they were affectionate yet independent, and didn’t judge him on his looks.

He started off with one, and that was fine except he thought the cat might miss feline company, so another cat found a home.

With two cats, he figured one more wouldn't be any trouble, but then there were kittens. Three cats became seven, which soon turned into fifteen, then twenty-two; before long he’d lost count, there were cats everywhere he looked.

Hellboy didn't mind, he loved cats and they loved him. As he told Father, there's no such thing as too many cats!

The End

Oh! I love Hellboy! I'm glad you decided to explore this fandom.
I love the way he is acting with his feline friends in the movies and how force and brutality suddenly give way to tenderness and peace when he is amongst them.

I adore Hellboy, but I think the first movie was the best. I wrote the fic a couple of years ago I think, but I found it again a few weeks ago and decided to turn my 82 word three-sentence fic into a full drabble. I think it worked nicely.

Thank you!
