Growing up, we only had a couple of dogs and I wasn't that close to them. The only cat I knew was a gnarly farm cat that my grandmother had.
Yet, somehow, I ended up being a cat person with four cats. My first cat was Skitters. She showed up on the doorstep and moved right on in. I think this is how cats domesticated us from the beginning.
When I moved out, I couldn't take her as she was mostly outdoors and my apartment wasn't in a good place for outdoor cats. She disappeared soon after. I then went to a shelter and adopted Petunia who solidified my love for cats.
So how did you get your first cat?
