Cats and Kittens

Cats are living beings with needs, wants and feelings, just like you and I. They require time, money, love, understanding and commitment — some cats can live to 15 years or more! Having a cat in your life can be a wonderful experience and very rewarding, but it is a decision that you and all members of your household must think through carefully. You all need to be ready to accept the many responsibilities of providing a loving, permanent home for your new furry family member.
