i got my Jesse for christmas. my parents went to a shelter or a petshop, (i don't remember which) when she was three months. for about 2-3 days she had to stay at my dad's construction shop, then on christmas morning; she came! my parents planned to put her in a wrapped box with the lid able to flip up. but she ended up jumping out and running around. (thats what woke me up on christmas, the click clack of her nails on the linuliem.)
