The thought of bringing home a new kitten can be at once exciting and overwhelming. Here are some kitten-specific suggestions that will help make your new friend's welcome a warm and lasting one.
One of the first things you need to consider is whether you want a purebred or mixed-breed kitten. The greatest advantage of buying a purebred kitten or cat is that their appearance and, to a lesser degree, personality, is likely to fit the profile of that particular breed. So a well-bred Siamese is more likely to be vocal, mischievous, and demanding of your attention.
If you simply want a family pet, why not consider mixed-breed kittens and cats? The most thoroughly mixed of these are categorized as either "domestic shorthairs" or "domestic longhairs".
Mixed-breed kittens and cats are generally inexpensive or free, while purebred kittens are sometimes quite costly (although, of course, no pet is truly "free" as responsible ownership includes the cost of quality food and veterinary care).
