I know sometimes you are looking for a specific type of animal for a specific function- but if you are looking for a great family pet, please look at the humane society first. We have adopted two wonderful cats from the Humane Society. You would not believe how perfect these cats have been. I don't know how they ended up being up for adoption - they are that cool! I have seen many purebreds at the humane society too. The great thing about adopting is that the medical aspects have been taken care of- the animal is fixed, has had a check up and shots, and also has a microchip implanted too. On the news last week (July 2005) it was reported that they had a surplus of kittens and had discounts available.
