Springtime is the beginning of kitten season.  This time of year is a popular time for newborn kittens to find a home in local shelters.  This also means that it’s a great time to adopt your first cat.  Here are a few things that you should consider before adopting a cat this June.

Cat Adoption Tips:

• Room for Two – Cats need regular exercise, stimulation and social interaction.  If you have the room, two cats can provide this for each other. 
• Personality – Just like us, each cat has a unique personality.  Cats with long hair tend to be more easygoing than lean cats with short hair.  Consider working with the adoption center to find a cat that matches your own personality.
• Vet Visit – Take any records you received from the adoption center with you to your first vet visit.
• Cat-Proof Home – If you have never had a pet before, you may be accustomed to leaving food out on the counter.  However, your cat might jump on the counter to reach it.  Hide electric cords and pick up any small objects that your kitten might accidently swallow.

For more tips on what you should consider before adopting, visit the American Humane Association website.  We also offer cat adoption tips at our office.  Contact Bregman Vet Group with any questions or concerns you have about cat adoption and caring for your new pet.
