It seems like my family got all of our pets by someone randomly finding them and bringing them home. It wasn't always that way of course. Sometimes they just showed up in our yard on their own. Let's see. How did we get our pets:
 * Parents were visiting someone who didn't want their purebred puppy. Came whom with said puppy.
 * Friend found a stray that had kittens. Grandma took in two. When tragedy struck, my mom traded her cat for the remaining kitten and got another from the litter.
 * Stray liked to hang out in our backyard. Adopted her.
 * Sister wanted a kitten. This one was actually adopted from the humaine society or something similar.
 * Went to Little League fair. Came home with goldfish. Repeat next two years. Third year came home with four goldfish
 * Goldfish died, bought two more.
 * Sister got a goldfish from VBS
 * Went to adopt a rabbit from family friends. Adopted two.
 * Came home from county fair with a rabbit.
 * Came home from a Mountain Man fair (or something like that) with a puppy.
 * Went to get a hampster. Came home with two.
 * Switched hampsters to keep from getting babies. After losing one, get back the original hampster. Turns out she was pregnant. Eight babies later . . . Kept two.
 * Sister's friend found a pregnant cat. Adopted one kitten.
 * Cat dropped off in front yard. Found a home for it. Happened, again, and kept the second one.
 * Sister's friend found kittens in her work parking lot. Adopted both. (These were literally smuggled in and hidden for a couple of days.)
 * Stray had kittens. Sister and friend adopted all three.
 * I think we might have had another one dropped off in our front yard that we adopted.
 * Sister's friend's dog had puppies. Sister adopted puppy.

I'm probably missing some, but basically. . . yeah. Almost all of our pets were strays (or otherwise found us on their own) and that was more or less the whole story.
