How Did You Choose the Right Cat?

When you decided to share your life with a cat did you have a particular breed or type in mind? Did you say to your self that nothing but a Siamese would be the right choice for you, or did you conclude that only a jet black cat could make you happy?

Perhaps you had no thoughts at all about the kind of feline that you wanted but were determined to choose the right cat no matter what kind of cat it may be.

So did your choice turn out all right? Most likely it did, it’s hard not to fall in love with a cat. You have come to an understanding with your cat, the cat is the boss and you are the human slave. So everything worked out fine and there is no way that you would want to go back on your choice of cat.

So why not share with the visitors to best-cat-art how you came to choose your cat. Did you choose your cat from a shelter and knew she was the cat for you right from when you first saw her? Did a tempting tabby tug at your heartstrings? Or did a cute calico capture you? Do you have lots of cats, how did you choose them all?

Share with us how you made your choice and all the things that you cat does to let you know that she or he is the right one for you. If you have a picture of your cat that you want to share that would be great too.

Please note: The maximum image size we are able to accept is 800x600. If your image is larger than this you can reduce it using any graphics software or a web based resizer such as Google's Picasa (for PC users,) or iPhoto's Export function on a Mac. Thanks.

Did you choose the right cat?

Of course you did, so tell us all about your choice even if it was your cat that chose you. Share with us how well your choice has worked out. . .
