Or did they choose you? Stories please!


Xoxo chose us. Kinda. He was rescued by a neighbor back when we lived in
the condos. He became the condo cat, but we became his main
caregivers. We took him to the vet and fed him much better food than the
guy who rescued him did. Plus the guy had a cat who hated all other cats.
When our beloved Quetzie died, Xoxo mourned for him for weeks. He
dissappeared from the courtyard and we could hear him crying in the back
of the building at night. When we moved to our house, Xoxo came with us
and he's been a very happy indoor-only cat since.
Luna also kinda chose us. We went to get one kitten and we immediately
loved Maya's coat. However, Maya was doing her thing, smelling
everything and not staying put. Luna, on the other hand, had to be with
us. She *loves* people, so we decided to take them both.
Basho and Issa were selected by the breeder, so there was no choice
there, other than the choice of colors.
Fez definitely chose me and I chose Rufous. They were tiny 4 week old
abandoned kittens at the SPCA, part of a litter of 5. When I opened the
cage they were in, Fez got up from the pile, made a beeline for me and
started meowing. He still has the exact same voice....
He obviously wanted to come home with me and I chose Rufous because he
was the biggest, fuzziest, orangest kitten I've ever seen.
