On The Fence About Adopting A Cat?
If you're in need of a little more convincing, here are ten other reasons to adopt a cat (whether it's National Adopt A Cat Month, or not) courtesy of goodvets.com:
- Adopting a cat can be great for your mental health
- ... and your physical health, too
- Cats make great indoor pets/can easily adjust to apartment life
- Cats, compared to other pets are generally more low maintenance
- ... and often less expensive to take care of
- Cats can make you (and other pets) happier
- Cats make great companions
- Rescue cats (and rescue pets in general) due to often being mixed breed tend to have fewer health issues
