Important things you need to know before adopting a cat or a kitten

Cat adoption, adopting a cat, adopt a pet

Are you prepared to become a pet owner?
Adopting a cat is a joyful event in every family. But cats bought at first glance can cause a big surprise and unfortunately sometimes a great disappointment, too. Many unwanted cats end up in the streets or animal shelters because of people's irresponsibility or inconsistent pledge.

It is not only joy but also a great responsibility
It is important to know that if you buy a pet, you will have to take responsibility for it. You should never buy a cat as a result of a sudden resolution. As a pet owner you are required to take responsibility for an adopted living creature, you must take care of it not only when it is fit as a fiddle but also when it is ill for the rest of its life. The following guide is for those who are to become cat owners for the first time in their lives.

Where should you get your kitten?
It is very important where you get your cat because it does matter what experiences your future cat has gained during the very first part of its existence. If you would like a pedigree cat then it is worth the trouble to look for a breeder who will kindly show you his or her animals and can provide you with information on the advantages and disadvantages of the different varieties.

You can buy cats in pet shops, too. You can buy healthy, well-bred, well-kept kittens in some of the better pet shops. Kittens are catered for their special needs in these specialised shops, for example, they are provided with runways, toilet boxes, and things to climb on and to play with.

But it is more common to adopt a cat from our friends or to pick up a stray cat from the street. It is also worth visiting the nearest animal shelter for kittens, but enthusiastic animal rights activists can pick up an abandoned kitten from the street. In this latter case you should also take into account the different parasites such as vermin, flees, ticks or the appearance of latent diseases.
