Determine the roles in the family
Have your children begged for a Cat and promised to always clean up for me? Although such declarations should be taken with a grain of salt, every household member can help in taking care of your Favorite. For this to be the case, each family member must know exactly what their role is.
Plan costs
Planning your budget in advance will bring you many benefits. You must consider expenses related to caring for your cat, visits to the vet, necessary equipment, and travel fees. Consult a veterinarian or the staff of a nearby shelter to determine the amount of financial resources necessary.
Lifestyle and environment
Did you know that the reason many Cats end up in a shelter is because of the lifestyle of the owners? Sometimes due to roommates, moving house, apartment owners, and sometimes because of too little space, the place where you live may turn out to be less hospitable for the Cat than you initially thought. Make sure you have the consent of all those around you before bringing the Cat into your home. If this turns out not to be a good time, don't worry! Once you're ready, many Cats will continue to look for a home.
Which Cat is the most suitable for you?
Many people who are planning to adopt a Cat choose the same breed they had in their childhood. They often forget that character may be more important than race or color. Some Cats need more contact with people and their attention, while others will prove themselves as pets of active and busy people.
Where to find a new Cat?
There are many ways to find a new Cat. Breeders and nearby shelters are just two examples of places you can go.
Race selection
If you are looking for a specific breed, use the search engine on the Purina website. You can also use other sites to locate breeders in your area.
