Catty1,
I completely agree. The day I got Dean I was just planning on going to the local Humane Society to take a look around and think about adopting a kitten/cat.
Well, just so happens, it was National Adopt a Kitten day... So, there I see the cutest little fawn tabby, at the time named OJ. So they push me into a "visiting" room and tell me how cute he is, and he's had his shot, neutered, and micro-chipped. I was thinking "this is the right place to get an animal, if it is the right time, is this the right time?"
Well, it must have been the right time, because she told me they were adopting out kittens for $17.00 that day. And I thought... WHAT A DEAL!
So, I filled out my adoption information, they put him in a carrying box for me, and off we went. Never separated since.
I got a vaccinated, neutered, and micro-chipped feline for a small fee of $17.00. It has been 3 years since I've had him and each trip to the vet has cost $30.00 dollars for his rabies shot, booster shot, and annual exam.
I couldn't be happier with my adopted kitty!
