I just wanted to put my thoughts out there and see what everyone else thinks....
All but one of my kitty cats, I adopted as a rescue when they were older (1.5yo+... latest one was 6yo). I know it’s good to go for older cats since they are less likely to be adopted but I feel like I keep missing out on a portion of their life.... seeing their parents and going through their (albeit short) kitten months. Whenever I ask the person I adopt the cats from they never have kitty pics to share or when I go through shelters they of course do not.
One of my bucket list items is to have a bunch of kittens hanging out and crawling all over me. I got close to this at a cat cafe but it was with strangers around and not the same....
I once posted on the local Criagslist asking anyone if I can hang out with their kittens for a few hours and I would offer a small donation (during the kitten booming months) all I got were weird replies saying “freak” and such.... these people are giving away free kittens but wouldn’t even take my money just so I could pet and play with their kittens for a few hours... not like I would have eaten them.
