The tabby, called Tara,curls up next to Jeremy Triantafilo at his home in Southwest Bakersfield, California,as he is interviewed by ABC News following video of the attack being uploadedto YouTube this week.
Tara reportedly adopted the family six years ago after turningup while the boy’s mother Erica and father Roger were on a date. At thetime they were unmarried and had no idea they would end up together.
Is "adopted" correctly used here? I think we should say " the family adopted Tara" or "Tara was adopted by the family."
I need your advice.
Thanks!
Jason
