Family abandons munchkin cat that they bought after she gets sick, but thankfully a wholesome couple instantly falls in love and adopts her: 'Today, she is a sassy, spoiled... [and] purrfectly healthy'

Adopt, don't shop. We have said it, and we will keep saying it as many times as we have to. There are enough cats out there that are looking for homes. You don't need to buy "special" ones. There's no need to encourage breeders trying to make more special ones. Every cat is special at the end of the day. Trust us. We speak from experience. Sometimes, they are too special. But alas, unfortunately, some people do buy cats, and those cats, the ones that have been bred and brought into the world, as unethically as it might have happened, need homes too. 

That's what happened here - kind of. A family bought a munchkin cat from a breeder, and then, when the cat got sick, which does happen, they abandoned the cat. It's pure luck - or maybe it's the cat distribution system - that had that same cat find a couple to adopt it so quickly. A couple who nursed it back to health, loved it and, unlike the family who bought it, will continue loving it as long as it lives.
