I was trying to shorten the story. It was an arranged marriage. She was 16. They later had 15 children, 1 was my lovely grandmother that lived to be 96.
I got them from the same breeder that has veterinary training and her daughter is a veterinarian. I paid for one. I ended up with 4. I used "happenstance" the correct way. I understand arthritis and joint pain. I felt that getting them from a breeder was the same notion as getting my Labrador from a breeder. I made myself aware of their health issues.
I read the articles. I take mine to the vet regularly. They’re spayed and neutered, vaccines up to date. My oldest boy has a heart defect that I give him vet prescribed pills for, daily. They, and the other 3 not pictured, are well cared for. I always wanted one after taking care of rescues for so long. Happenstance lead me to have 4. My eldest cats are rescues and will be 13 this year.
They get along great. They smother me with affection. They have a half sister, and my two old lady kitties, that they get along with. They all play together and eat together fine.
