Summary:  Tosh wants the team to adopt a kitten.

Tosh spotted the kitten, a bundle of fur shivering in the rain, half-hidden by some brush.  With a little coaxing, and the judicious use of a tuna sandwich scrounged from a nearby shop, she convinced him to come out and curl up in the jacket Owen begrudgingly provided.

Clutching the rumbling form she pleaded, “Can we keep him?”

Jack looked at the others.   The doctor who had aimlessly wandered from job to job, the assistant shattered by Canary Wharf, the cop that stumbled on them on her own....  All had found a home here.

Jack smiled.  “What’s one more stray?”

Aww! Too adorable. For some reason, my favorite part of this is the mental image of Owen rolling his eyes, grumbling, and shrugging out of his coat to give it to Tosh.

Exactly!! You can make him do something, you just can't make him do it with dignity.

That actually might be one of the most awesome descriptions of Owen I've ever seen.
