Think about it: if the world could see how much adoption means from a cat's point of view, shelters would be empty.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Millions of cats are in shelters across the country waiting for a loving parent or family to bring them home.
We can stop the cycle of animal homelessness and save lives by opening our hearts and homes to a loving cat or dog from an animal shelter instead of buying animals from breeders or pet shops.
People's financial situation has changed, and they surrender their cats all the time, because they're downsizing or moving to a property where they are not allowed to have pets.
Every time someone buys a cat or a dog from a breeder or a pet shop, a cat on the streets or in an animal shelter loses his or her chance at finding a good home.
Cats know how to obtain food without labor, shelter without confinement, and love without penalties.
I just wish that more people would be welcoming to dogs and cats so they didn't have so many that got killed and had to be thrown in a landfill.
Cats and their owners are on a private, exclusive loop of affection. Thus cats have become symbolic of a community eschewed and a hyper-engagement with oneself. They represent the profound danger of growing so independent in New York that it's not merely that you don't need anyone - it's that you don't know how to need anyone.
We want to bring awareness for all those cats still searching for their forever home and not only help them find their perfect match but also make the transition home a success.
We've gotten involved in cat rescue - we take them in and find homes for them. I've always loved cats. I saw how homeless cats were living out there. We take them in, put out flyers.
The cat does not offer services. The cat offers itself. Of course he wants care and shelter. You don't buy love for nothing.
