Well, I got both my cats from their previous owner. In my view, it was a bit of an unlikely story. One of my friends who works as a cleaner for an elderly lady told me one day that that lady's daughter in law had two kittens that she was not able to keep due to allergies and they were looking for a new owner, otherwise the kittens would have to go to the shelter.
My friend contacted the daughter in law and found out that there were no allergies at all: apparently the lady's son had told his new girlfriend that she had to chose between him and the otherwise very adorable kittens. Well, the cat owner had chosen her boyfriend over the two kittens.
I could tell the lady was very sad when she handed them over. They have a good home now and the kittens have grown a lot since then: they are now three and a half years old.
I still think it was a sad situation. I would never chose anyone over those lovely cats.
