Reply #9: Funny story (as if anyone cares) [View All]

Abigail I got from adopting her from CARE (the animal welfare org that runs their shit out of PetSmart.) My g/f dragged me in there, and Abigail looked exactly like the cat I had when I was younger. I'm normally opposed to adopting kittens, since the older cats need it more and someone will adopt the kittens anyway, but I broke and adopted her.

Then, one day about a year later my neighbor comes to the door with a little black kitten in her arms. She asks if it's my cat, since she knows I have cats. It looks just like Abigail, so I freak out thinking that it's her, and say, "Yes! Let her in!" and let this black cat come bounding into my house.

Then I look up and see Abigail chilling out on the arm of the couch.

So I accidentally adopt Annabel. She's hungry and cold and skinny, so I decide to keep her.

Basically, they look so much alike, but are completely unrelated. In fact, the only reason Annabel got in my house was because I thought she was Abigail. Lucky her.

Now they live a life of constant feedings, lounging on the down comforter, and occasional chunk of turkey or chicken (which is more than I get, since I'm vegetarian).
