Probably both. She'd bought her bettas here, after all, and Yotsuyu bought the products for their care here--and she often made donations so that the cats the rescue brought in were well-cared for.

If Elliott had ever wanted a cat, well, she'd probably have rescued one, but it had never really come about, but it was more a lack of discussion than a lack of desire, most likely.

She just smiled at Clarence a little. "They may say no, but at least you know you've given some help to his care, after all. Even if it is through me. I'd never have done it without your intervention, after all."

Well, that might be a little white lie. She might have, but she might have just breezed in, got her filters and fish food, and breezed right out again. Hard to say.
