So much this.

If you want a breed can you can sometimes find them for adoption too.

+1 for a stray or barn cat, they are the best

orange tabby

Siamese are the most dog like when it comes to compassion

Want to add.
When you adopt a cat they will be so scared, since they hate the shelter. They will constantly meow out of fear that you are going to kill them or something when you transport them home.

When you bring them home, they will be so confused since you just gave them a better life.

Once they get used to it, they will meow at you in the morning to greet you.

To prevent hairballs, you have to give them this:

Also don't feed them catgrass if they are an inside cat, otherwise they will throw up. Since that's what catgrass is supposed to do. It's to get rid of bones or stuff that could hurt their intestines.

Ask for one who has been at the shelter the longest

Would love to add a note that black cats are the least likely to get adopted because they are “boring looking” and some people are still superstitious.

If you can spare a little room in your home and in your heart, please consider one of the many black cats who are sitting and waiting (and likely will carrying on waiting a much longer time than others) in a pen in a local shelter. <3

This is a good reason to get a black cat. They keep away the pansies.

Go look behind grocery stores for the feral cats and snatch a kitten from it's mother. Then raise it.

[anonkunbrah]

Go with a shelter cat brah.

If you have ever been to a shelter you will feel better (and so will the cat) just knowing you got them out of that environment.

Some cats stay there for months.

About to actually but how do you decide what to get from there?

[untranslatedZA]

Cats are poor pets. The fact that we even managed to domesticate them is a miracle.
If you want company rather get a dog, even a small one is still more masculine than a cat and will make for better company and ability to meet women.

Better not to go back there and look and ask them to bring the one who needs a home the most to you, usually those who don't get picked because people go in and pick for looks or kittens the most

Male cat > female cat
Better personality in my opinion

[GlennQuagmire]

Adopt, dont shop!

But...

Not true, cats are the most affectionate pets ever if you give them time and space to love you.

They are amazing pets, just as affectionate but also less needy and less high maintenance.

You are allowed what you want, if a kitten is in fact what you're looking for. It'll be hard to find one in a shelter because not many people will dump them off there, usually kittens are given away to friends and families.

Shelter cats are all spayed and neutered around here, all up to date with shots, and have had recent vet checks so for the most part you know what you're getting into, whereas a kitten is going to be a little ball of hell.

My current cat is from the shelter and she's the sweetest cat I've ever owned in my life, and I've had friends kittens and kept feral cats before
