How did you get your "fur babies"?

Delilah we adopted from the Humane Society at 10 weeks old.

Blue and Piper both came from different neighbors' "oops" litters. Blue was quite sick when we brought her home at 7 weeks old - malnourished with a nasty URI.

Bastian and Griffin are littermates we got from a Ragdoll breeder.

Bea (dog) we recently adopted from an individual who'd hoped to use her for breeding, but it didn't work out so they decided to rehome her. (Bea had produced several litters for her original owner, but her latest suitor wasn't terribly interested in her, apparently.) Now she's spayed and learning to be a regular pet!

Pandora, Priscilla, Fluffy, Harvest, Monalisa, and Morticia (snakes) all came from 2 local reptile specialty shops.

Interesting thread!

Pooch was a stray. When we first took him in, he was following his mother around and looked to be only a few weeks old.

Luke was part of the litter of a pregnant stray that my MIL took in so she can have her babies in a warm place, and she did the very next morning.

Kelly was also a stray as well. She had to be no more than three months old when we found her. My super lovey vocal kitty. =)
