Considerations Prior To Buying A Cat Or Kitten

catTaking on a cat as a pet is a big commitment and should not be taken lightly. A cat will need attention, routine veterinary treatment, grooming and daily care for 10-15 years.

Too many cats end up in rescue homes waiting to be re-homed due to an owner deciding after buying the cat that they cannot give it the care it needs or cope with the financial commitment of owning a cat, the novelty of cat ownership wearing off, changes in circumstances or some other reason. Just as anyone would give careful consideration to their circumstances, lifestyle, commitment, time etc before starting a family, buying a cat should be considered in the same way.

A cat is not a pet that a child can be expected to be solely responsible for and will need an adult carer. It is important to consider other pets in the household and all family members when choosing a cat as a pet to ensure a cat will fit into the lifestyle and environment of the family as a whole.

The type of cat suitable for a particular adult or family will vary. Different breeds have different personality and traits and long haired varieties will generally need more care.
