Or did they choose you? Stories please!

(no I'm not just a voyeur... in three weeks we'll be getting our own
kitties and I'm getting nervous - I've never ever had a cat of my own
in my entire life! What if they decide they don't like me?)

We had been going to the shelter for a couple of weeks to see what was what,
and on this day we decided we were ready - if the right cat was there we
would take it.

We got to a cage with a cute big kitten sitting up on the shelf. We said
hello and she meowed and jumped down to come and meet us. We squatted down
by the front of the cage to have a chat with her. I turned to Janice to say
that this looked like a nice cat. While my head was turned, Tashie stood up
on her back legs, reached through the wire, and touched my cheek with her
paw, like, "I choose... YOU!"
