Family abandons munchkin cat that they bought after she gets sick, but thankfully a wholesome couple instantly falls in love and adopts her: 'Today, she is a sassy, spoiled... [and] purrfectly healthy'

Adopt, don't shop. We have said it, and we will keep saying it as many times as we have to. There are enough cats out there that are looking for homes. You don't need to buy "special" ones. There's no need to encourage breeders trying to make more special ones. Every cat is special at the end of the day. Trust us. We speak from experience. Sometimes, they are too special. But alas, unfortunately, some people do buy cats, and those cats, the ones that have been bred and brought into the world, as unethically as it might have happened, need homes too.

That's what happened here - kind of. A family bought a munchkin cat from a breeder, and then, when the cat got sick, which does happen, they abandoned the cat. It's pure luck - or maybe it's the cat distribution system - that had that same cat find a couple to adopt it so quickly. A couple who nursed it back to health, loved it and, unlike the family who bought it, will continue loving it as long as it lives.

"Two years ago, we adopted our first cat, Mochi, after she suffered four amputations. Today we are inseparable and she is a sassy, spoiled land seal."

There is so much wrong with this story. From the fact that there are breeders in China specifically for this kind of poor kitty, to the fact that people are willing to pay to buy them and ship them, all the way to them then abandoning the poor cat. Horrific. We don't understand.

We are just thankful that there are still good people out there to counteract the actions of the bad ones. Because bad people will always be there. We just need to have enough good people to save the kitties that are growing up in such awful environments.
