This actually happened to me and my wife. We found a kitten in our yard. The mother had abandoned him, we think it was because he was the runt. Hs ears were almost fully grown but the rest of him was very very tiny. My wife and I finally got him in to the house after three days of trying. She told me that I could name since I hadn't had any pets growing up. I chose Oliver, like the play, since he was an orphan and we took him in. She hated the name and called me "gay" for knowing so much about a play. But Oliver stuck and he's, the sweetest kitty I have ever seen...
