Good Morning, Day or Evening Everyone.
I just signed up for this forum and have a few questions I would like to ask you, of course if you don't mind.
I moved to US about 5 years ago and my g/f been here for about 2. So neither of us know really anything on how things done in here. Back at home I had a dog and a cat, my g/f had a cat. So naturally we would like to get us another bundle of joy.
My questions are pretty simple. As I did some research and found out that breeders charge for cats something around 500-600$, which we simply don't have. The shelters charge you about 75-80$ AND you get to do something good (Adopt a strayed cat
).
Now are there are anything we should be looking at when adopting a cat from a shelter? How long does it usually take to get one? I noticed websites mention some sort of "adopt-a-pet paper" you have to sign.
PS: Does not really go into any of the previous questions, but this one was actually bugging me for years. Would you feed cat a "dry" food or "wet" food? Back in Russia we fed our cat chicken, meat bought from the shops. Never was ill, active and very happy.
Thank you for your future answers and help.
