The problem is too many people get rid of their kittens before they become adult cats or before they become a elderly cats. I think one of the reasons is because they don't want to watch them die. Adopting a pet is even a bit more of a responsibility than a marriage. When my wife and I adopted our most recent rescue at 8 weeks (5.5 years ago) we made arrangements with the kids to take all our animals should we go. We were in our young 60s then, and a cat is a +/- 20 year commitment these days. After the cuteness of kittenhood passes, many people will abandon cats. I find this to be especially true of longhairs as they need a lot of care as far as grooming is concerned. Over the decades, I have rescued two longhairs from the streets, and they were both in dreadful condition with filthy, matted hair. With proper care and love, they both turned out to be beautiful cats and were a pleasure to have. |

Hello
The trouble with a kitten is that eventually it becomes a cat.
