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.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
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.
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.
Cats have a scam going - you buy the food, they eat the food, they go away; that's the deal.
Millions of cats are in shelters across the country waiting for a loving parent or family to bring them home.
Think about it: if the world could see how much adoption means from a cat's point of view, shelters would be empty.
A pet store is a celebration of dogs' existence and an explosion of options. About cats, a pet store seems to say, 'Here, we couldn't think of anything else.' Cats are the Hanukkah of the animal world in this way. They are feted quietly and happily by a minority, but there's only so much hoopla applicable to them.
Cats will outsmart dogs every time.
Multiple cat households are a good thing.
The cat does not offer services. The cat offers itself. Of course he wants care and shelter. You don't buy love for nothing.
Pet stores just sell their animals.
