Just let your pets die, guys
And eat your lentils.
Stupid peasents thinking they should be able to enjoy their lives! No one said it would be fun!
Are cats cheaper to own & maintain than a dog
@Dove y?
If so how much do you pay for each cat per month? Per year? How does that compare to a dog?
Reason I'm asking is one day I might get a SINGLE cat for a pet. Mind not 6 like you, Dear ;d.
I actually like cats and dogs but somehow I think dogs would cost too much & take too much time to maintain. Vet bills & dog foods must be expensive too.
I currently have 12 cats, one rabbit and 2 guinea pigs in here.
Our monthly animal tab is pretty high just for things like food, litter, bedding. Than treats and toys.
My vet bills are pretty reasonable. The small town vet here has cut me a lot of deals because he likes what I'm doing for the cats.
A single cat is very affordable. You really should adopt one. If you get a kitten, try to adopt one that's already been spayed/neutered and given shots.
As an older guy(I'm assuming you are older)....adopting an adult cat may be the best choice for you. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. Adult cats make wonderful companions.
Thx for the info Dovey.
But what is the COST per MO to feed & take care of a SINGLE CAT?
BTW I don't think I'd go for an older cat cuz they'd probably get old and die too soon.
Kitten be nice.
How long do cats live? 15 ? 20 years?
Joe, my cats live around 16 years.
I have 2 cats right now, and food and litter run me a lil over $45 a month. For a single cat, maybe $25?
My cats never go to the vet usually. Unless they need to be fixed/snipped. Lots of places work with you for that.
I mostly take in strays. Couple strays I've taken in, are already "catch and release" cats. As in their ear is clipped, so you know they are fixed.
You cant let a random stray in though lol. You have to bond with that cat outdoors, before welcoming kitty inside.
