We just went to see some cats to there today but we encountered him.
I know this is strange for non Japanese people but in Japan, pets like cats and dogs are in pet store and we can see them through clear cage.
A man of the pet store coming to us and asked "Wanna hold a kitten ?".
He took out one kitten from the cage and let us hold.
That kitten was really cute but he, the pet store person, also said
"We have a Russian Blue just reached here in this morning. Bring him here."
The kitten was him. The pet store guy placed paper sheet on the table and put him on it.
He is Russian Blue, 2 months old. At first he seems scared for everything but soon he get used to us and start to play around.
He was soooo cute !
That guy asked us "This is encounter, why don't you get him in your family ?"
I and my wife discussed and considered for a while.
But finally we decided.
This is really an encounter.
The guy said "He need to have some anti-virus injections so that we'll take care of him one more week"
We told him that we'll come back in next Sunday.
Bye bye kitten, you'll be part of my family on next Sunday.
We also bought a lot of stuff to bring up kitten such as cage, toilet, claw board and so on.
(Pet industry eat our money a lot...)
After we got home, we discussed his name.
We prefer some western style name rather than Japanese traditional because he is Russian Blue.
We chose "Porto" as his name because we love portugal, easy to call and a little bit european flavor.
We miss you porto.
