I have 2 cats. One is 4.5 and I adopted him when he was 8 weeks. The other is 2.5 and I adopted him at age 2. He was a stray and has no history. He had to have had a previous owner because he was neutered and it would be impossible to live through a Canadian winter outside.
I constantly find myself wondering who he lived with before, and why they didn't look for him. I wonder if he was treated well or neglected.
Anyone else wonder about your pet's blank history?

Rumor has it, that his owner'r recognized him on a walk with a volunteer, but never came back to the shelter for him. Their loss.
) My big dog I got from the shelter- they found her wandering the streets. She had some really strange habits though, ie- she was afraid of doors. When i wanted her to go in or out of the yard I had to prop the door open and walk away- finally 10 min later she'd race through.
I knew the people I got her from at aproximately age one and a half....I suspect that they stole her, because she's a Razor's Edge pitbull, which costs about 2000. These people were on welfare, so.....The reason I adopted Leila was bc I my bf and I saw her outside in a dirty filthy shit covered cage for weeks on end when we bought a property to rehab and flip. The people who had her didn't seem "bad," but I suspect they got Leila, didn't know what to do with her and just neglected her. She was 45 lbs and covered in mange and had worms and all nastiness when we got her. Within one month she had gained 15lbs, now she is at a healthy weight of 75lbs. The thing that disturbs me is she has giant swollen nipples, and that's a sign that she had puppies WAAAY too young....it disfigures their bodies *Cries* I hope it's not true.
