A few "cat"-siderations:

•  Age:  While kittens are hard to resist, adult cats are often better suited to families with young children.  Mature cats respond better to the clumsy handling of inquisitive toddlers.
•  Number:  It can be beneficial to adopt more than one cat or kitten, especially if the pets will be left alone for long periods while you are gone.  Not all cats enjoy companionship, but many are very social with members of their own species.  Young kittens need to engage in vigorous play for several hours a day, and another pet can help get the job done.
•  Personality:  Many cats are under a great deal of stress in a shelter environment.  A cat's true personality may not emerge until he has been in his new home for several weeks. 
•  Coat:  The longer the fur, the more brushing will be needed to prevent painful matting.
•  Nutrition and health:  Good nutrition and yearly vet visits will keep your cat healthy and happy.  Keep your cat indoors to prevent accidents and fights with other animals.  Check your cat for fleas, and make sure the litter box is clean and odor-free.  Finally, set aside time every day to play with your cat; it is beneficial for you both!
•  Tags:  We take in hundreds of pets each year that are not wearing any identification.  Make sure to include your cat's name and your name, address and phone number on the tag.  Even indoor cats can slip outside, so make sure she's wearing her tag at all times.  Microchips are another excellent way of identifying your pet.  Please contact our shelter to schedule your microchip appointment, and make sure your information is up to date.
•  Prepare your home:  Both adult cats and kittens love to climb and explore.  Be aware of possible hazards.  Keep trash cans closed, toilet-seat covers down and cabinets latched.  Don't let cords or wires dangle, and cover any floor heating and air vents.  Some houseplants may be toxic, so check with your vet for information on cat-friendly indoor plants.
•  Kids and cats:  Children should be taught that a kitten or cat is a companion, not a toy.  Rough handling can lead to injuries to both the cat and the child.
