In article epxRkhlUwRo0-pn2-EK6WL4TjzPeq@sdn-ap-
004scfairP0132.dialsprint.net, enlightened us with... If you can't afford 60 pounds for a cat, you may want to reconsider getting one. They take time, energy, and MONEY. Food, toys, vet bills, and so on. If 60 pounds to save a life is too much for you, perhaps you'd like a fish or a hamster. They make lovely pets and are very cheap to care for. You've nver owned fish? Sure. Goldfish. The little ones kids win at carnivals.  -- -- ~kaeli~ Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball! http://www.ipwebdesign.net/wildAtHeart http://www.ipwebdesign.net/kaelisSpace

Unless the SPCA is having a "sale" and then it's $25. LT

004scfairP0470.dialsprint.net, enlightened us with... Hey, I agree. Cats don't need to eat fish. How much is 60L in USA? 60 GBP = $107 USD. Seems like a lot, but everything is relative. A bag of cat food that costs $10 here costs $20 there, at least according to a quick search I did. I went here. http://www.petplanet.co.uk/category.asp?dept_id=35 I looked at the 3KG bad of Pro Plan listed at 11.60 GBP. 11.60 GBP = $20.70 USD 3KG = 6.6lbs A 6lb bag of pro plan would cost me around $11 USD at my local store. I've spent that several times on rescue cats. Cats run $60 at local shelters. Unless the SPCA is having a "sale" and then it's $25. Our shelters run anywhere from $50 in the city (kill shelter) to $150 at some of the no-kill, non-profit shelters (the rare ones that are cageless, have lots of volunteers, scheduled playtimes, and so on). I'd say $75 is pretty average. Considering the fact that when I had my cat spayed, it cost me $150, I'd say getting an already neutered cat for less than that is a bargain. Plus costs of vaccinations, wormings, and so on. -- -- ~kaeli~ The man who fell into an upholstery machine is fully recovered. http://www.ipwebdesign.net/wildAtHeart http://www.ipwebdesign.net/kaelisSpace

(snip) Whatever. I'm not going to argue about fish on a cat group. Actually, I'm not going to argue about fish. They're tasty. If you won't discuss fish, how about discussing your moral inconsistency? People who are caring and generous to one species, while being callous and inddiferent to another puzzle me. Can you offer any logical support for your stance?
