Introduction

If you’re looking to buy a cat, you’ve probably already considered whether you want to adopt or buy. But there are other considerations that can make or break your decision, such as the breed of cat you choose and what type of home environment you live in. This blog will walk through all the important considerations for buying a new feline friend.

What breed of cat should you buy?

There are many different breeds of cats to choose from, and every breed has its pros and cons. A few common considerations when looking at cat breeds include:

• The size of the cat (some are very small, while others are large)
• The color or pattern of the fur (some have long hair, others short)
• How friendly they are with other animals (some get along well with other pets in the house)

How many cats should you buy?

• One cat is a great choice.
• Two cats are better than one.
• Three cats are better than two. They can keep each other company, and if you’re away from home they can entertain each other while you’re gone!
• Four cats are better than three: now it’s a party! And if your four-cat party needs music…well, there’s always Spotify on your laptop. Just make sure there’s no static electricity in the air before plugging in that old iPod dock. Those things can be dangerous! But don’t worry; we’ve got you covered there too—we’ve got some tips on preventing kitty electrocution later on in this article so stay tuned!

If all this sounds like fun (because really, who doesn’t love parties?), then five is where it gets good: at this point all of those extra mouths to feed will be making everyone look better dressed as well because now everyone has someone else to buy them clothes for holidays or birthdays (or even just because). Plus with that many people around there’ll be fewer opportunities for arguments about who gets what kind of treat or which cat gets fed first when food runs out–and let me tell ya’, nobody wants their fur getting ruffled over something like that!

What type of home do you have and how will it affect the cats?

You also need to think about what type of home you have and how that will affect the cats. Do you have carpeted floors or hardwood floors? Are there loud noises, like those from neighbors, nearby construction, or cars revving their engines? Will other pets in the home be affected by this new addition (or vice versa)?

If you’re not sure what type of flooring your house has, ask yourself whether it’s okay for a cat to sleep on. If so, assume that it’s carpeted—and make sure that’s okay with everyone involved before bringing a cat home!

Are you a dog person?

If you’re a dog person, then there are things to consider. For example:

• Dogs are more social than cats and need to be trained and taken for walks. Cats don’t need as much exercise.
• Cats can be one-person pets, unlike dogs which usually prefer the company of other people and animals.

What kind of accessories will your cats need?

• Cat beds
• Food dishes
• Litter box
• Toys and scratching posts

Should you look into adopting instead of buying a cat?

As a cat owner, I am often asked if it’s better to buy or adopt. The answer is that it depends on your circumstances and what you know about cats.

There are many reasons why people prefer to adopt:

• Adopting can be cheaper than buying a cat. It may cost less than $100 for an adoption fee for a well-adjusted adult cat, compared with thousands of dollars for the purchase of an adult pet with unknown health issues. If you want kittens, however, it’s important to know how much they will cost over time since they grow up quickly (kittens need vaccinations and regular vet checkups).
• Adopting gives you the opportunity to save an animal’s life by giving them home instead of sending them off somewhere else where they might not get adopted at all!

Remember to consider all these things when getting a cat.

• Consider all of the above points when getting a cat.
• Don’t rush into buying a cat.
• Don’t buy a cat just because you have a lot of money to spend on them.
• Don’t buy a cat just because you want one and haven’t considered if that’s what’s best for everyone involved (that would be your family).
• Don’t buy a cat just because you think it will be cool, unless being cool is important to you; in which case, maybe you should get yourself an iguana instead?

Conclusion

When getting a cat, it’s important to consider all the things that will affect their life and well-being. Think about what kind of home you have and how it will affect your new pet. Also think about whether or not you’re ready for a lifelong commitment to caring for this animal.
