Hello all!
Name/ BiLL
Where/ Brooklyn, NY (Mill Basin, near Kings Plaza)
Former dog kind of guy but since parents died it would be right to keep a dog alone while at work.
Friend recomened I look into adopting (a used/previously owned) cat.
Have been to Petco and NSAL mobile adoption site and feel $100.00 for a used/previously owned cat is too much. I understand that feeding a cat over a unlimited period of time can be costly. I think I will look into ACC, Animal Care and Controll which has animals for adoption, altered and up to date on vaccinations and blood test but does destroy annimals after a period of time. At first this may sound cruel but I think a over extended time in a shelter environment is more detremental to a annimal and adopting from such a place a a more humane act plus they charge 1/2 the price and give a additional discount to people 55 and over!
I am undecided regarding what cat to pick.
1/ I want a 3 to 5 year old cat
2/ I like the Main Coon but am confussed between "domestic tuxedo medium hair" and "Norwegian Forrest cat" both look the same to me.
3/ Do not like cats with too many colors on their nose
4/ I like dense hair but not too long
Any feed back or comments appreciated and may be considered.
