So you head out to the shelter or the local stray decides
that your house is his forever home - now what? There's a
lot to consider when acquiring a feline: purchase price,
living cost and vet bills, introduction to your house and
current residents (human and furry), and most important of
all, how your new addition will fit into your lifestyle.
Many people believe the myth that cats are loners and do not
want to be bothered. This is true to a point - cats are independent
creatures and enjoy calling the shots. However, as all cat
owners will tell you, cats want and need your attention, they
just want it on their terms. Cats are needy creatures and will
get upset if left alone for long periods of time. We definitely
don't recommend getting a single cat - while this works for
some, most cats prefer to have a buddy to hang out with. This
is extremely nice for them when the family is away at work/school,
they have someone to play with and cuddle with.
