Terra-chan came as a gift from my brother when I left home and moved to a new city. I had always had cats, but had to leave mine behind (she was very ill and would not have survived the trip). Terra has adapted very well to apartment living.
Misao was found by a friend at work. Hubby and I had recently decided to get a playmate for Terra and Misao basically fell in our lap. She required a lot of rehabilitation time (she had 5 different kinds of parasites, frostbite and was severly underweight). Misao is now a healthy happly 14lbs girl and on a diet.
I'm very surprised that we don't have more at this point with all the volunteer work I do at my local shelter, but there simply isn't room. Just wait until we get our house though
