Some adoption centers require a certain fee for cat adoption. This fee would be used to treat sick stray cats and provide food for animals that hadn't found homes yet.
Some people disagreed with this and preferred to spend extra money buying a cat they liked from elsewhere.
Lin Gantang understood their policy. She paid the fee, signed the adoption agreement, and placed the calico cat into a cat carrier.
A few days earlier, someone had called in response to a job posting. Lin Gantang had scheduled her for an interview at the store tomorrow.
She first took the calico cat to a pet store for grooming and a check-up and then returned home.
Upon arriving home, she found her father standing before the cat carrier, silently contemplating.
"You went through all that trouble just to bring this thing back?" he exclaimed.
