The Beginning.
In the beginning I was extremely hesitant. I was newly married, newly graduated, and jobless. I was not ready to commit to owning an animal, let alone a CAT. The reason being I had always grew up with dogs. Dogs are loyal, cute, friendly. Cats (in my mind) were selfish, mean, and secluded. This was my mindset when my wife asked me multiple times to get a CAT... "no thanks". I was completely against the idea if you couldn't tell.
This all changed when we got a call from my wife's mother!
Getting a Cat
My wife's mother called one evening about a runt kitten she was given from a neighbor. She already had 5 cats at the time (i think) and couldn't take another one so she called me and my wife. I was put in a difficult place. This little tiny baby cat was so small and helpless I couldn't not feel bad for it. I still had my doubts but her little face and tiny body just seemed so harmless. "I could make her the one good cat, maybe" I thought to myself. The question was imposed early and often for the next couple days until I finally agreed to take her in.
