They just come! I'm a sucker for downtrodden mangy animals and if one starts hanging around the garden, I'll feed them. Next thing you know, they're on my bed!
I seem to have the same experiences with dogs. When I had two I'm sure people where dumping unwanted dogs at our house. If I couldn't find a home for them I would take them to Battersea Dogs Home.
