Cats are wonderful companions, but they need love, attention, and care every day. Make sure your lifestyle allows time and space for a furry friend. Think about your home and preferences — do you want a playful kitten, a cuddly lap cat, or an independent spirit?

Sometimes, unexpected allergies may show up, forcing people to make the heartbreaking choice to give their pet up. Visit a friend who has cat or a shelter. You'll pretty much immediately know if you are allergic to cats and the severity of your allergies. Being allergic doesn't mean you have to give up on your dream of having a cat. Our products were developed to directly and specifically fight cat allergens!

Once you're ready to visit a shelter/breeder/adoption clinic, take your time meeting cats and be sure to ask about their personalities. Learn about their health history, behavior, and any special needs they may have. The more you know, the better you can care for them. Once you're ready, understand what's included (like vaccinations or microchipping), and go over any forms or fees with the rescue staff.

A visit to the vet helps start your cat off healthy and gives you peace of mind. Oftentimes, this is included in the initial adoption package! Please be sure to check. Stock up on litter, scratching posts, toys, a carrier, and healthy cat food— everything your new friend will need to settle in comfortably. Bonding takes time. With kindness and a little patience, your cat will grow to trust you—and that's when the magic happens.
