There are so many cat lovers here, and I really want to hear peoples' stories on how they met their cat/cats.
It was two years ago, and I was in my garage getting a shirt or something out of the wash. I walk in there and there's a pair of green eyes staring at me behind some boxes. I went over to meet this cat, and I fell in love when I first layed eyes on her.
She let me pet her, and I then picked her up to take her into the house. I gave her some food, and then played with her for a bit.
That's really cute
I met Flo on 24th December 1996. It had nothing to do with Xmas though, it was just because my other cat Henry (named after Henry VIII) had been runover on the 16th and I was sad. None of the pet shops had any because it was near Xmas and you're not supposed to buy kittens as presents etc. So we went to this charity place for destitute animals and the woman there said that because I was a member of a Cat charity, she would let me have one even though it was near Xmas and they don't usually let you. They had some black kittens but they were still with their mother and so we'd have to have waited a few more weeks. Then they had Flo and her sister, and because their mother had been really young, she'd died

So they were all alone and orphans and my mum said we could get both of them to keep them together.

So we did and it was my favourite Xmas, they played in the tree a lot.
