Once you decide which breeds you like, check out the shelters! There will probably be a cat that matches a breed that you would like to have! Also try the newspapers, often purebreds are given away or sold for very cheap prices when their owners have to give them up. Purebred cats and dogs are abandoned and mistreated as much as domestic breeds are.

With that said, I've got the following on my shelter shopping list:

1) A purebred Meezer to play with Pixel
2) A purebred or half bred Coonie
3) A purebred Aby!
4) A Himalayan and Meezer cross (Lorraine has one and it is GORGEOUS)
5) A long haired fur kid of any description!

Ahhhh....I can't wait til I can have more cats
