Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Passage: Our family decided it was time to add some more animals to our family . We call them pets only to communicate to others outside of our family life because we consider the animals who share our lives to be part of the family as well . We are very devoted to rescues . Two adult cats had been coming near our home so we set food out for them every night with a few treats during the day . After feeding and speaking to the cats for about three months , we were finally able to pet them . Two weeks after they allowed us to touch them , we were able to pick them up . That was our sign to put both cats into cat carriers for a trip to the veterinarian . When the veterinarian told us the cats were health , it was time to bring both cats inside . The cats were immediately comfortable and happy and were sleeping in bed with one of the humans in the house within a week of moving in . Question: How long did they try to pet the cats? Option1: about three months Option2: 6 months
Output (English): about three months
