Every cat deserves a safe, loving home, and we stand behind this incredible movement to raise awareness and promote <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beverlyhillsvets.com\/blog\/lifelong-love-should-i-adopt-a-pet-with-my-significant-other\/\">responsible cat ownership<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Adopt-A-Cat Month<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.americanhumane.org\/blog\/adopt-a-cat-month\/\">Adopt a Cat Month<\/a> aims to decrease the strain of kitten season at overcrowded facilities while placing kittens in safe, stable homes. Animal shelters are often overrun by new kittens who were born at the height of the season and now have no place to go. If you\u2019ve been considering adopting a cat, this could be the perfect season in which to do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cat Adoption Guide<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re thinking of adopting this June, congratulations! While most adoptions work out, there are some important considerations to work through to improve overall success:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Age: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.beverlyhillsvets.com\/veterinary-services\/puppy-kitten-wellness.html\">Kittens<\/a> require more time, energy, and money to get them going in the right direction. Older or senior cats are pretty laid back and more comfortable with longer stretches without human interaction. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beverlyhillsvets.com\/veterinary-services\/adult-senior-pet-care.html\">Older pets<\/a> often get overlooked at animal shelters, however. Adopting a senior cat may be the best match for your family!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Living Situation: <\/strong>Are you planning on staying at your current residence for some time? If you rent, there may be a pet deposit or rules against pets. It is crucial to plan ahead so this doesn\u2019t have a negative impact on a new pet\u2019s safety and housing security.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Resources: <\/strong>While <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beverlyhillsvets.com\/blog\/what-are-the-smartest-cat-breeds\/\">some cats<\/a> are perceived as low-maintenance, they have certain health, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beverlyhillsvets.com\/veterinary-services\/nutrition-weight-management.html\">dietary,<\/a> and environmental needs that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beverlyhillsvets.com\/blog\/frugal-pet-ownership-is-it-possible\/\">cost money<\/a>, so it is important to have room in your budget before you adopt.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Vibes: <\/strong>Not all pet cats are meant to share space with other cats, dogs, children, or various people. If you are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beverlyhillsvets.com\/blog\/signs-that-your-pets-get-along-or-not\/\">introducing a new cat<\/a> to a resident feline (or canine), bear in mind that the process can take time and patience. Create safe spaces for everyone to be able to escape feelings of stress or fear.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cat Adoption Tips<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We recommend stocking up on necessary supplies, bedding, toys, and treats before you bring home a new pet cat. Also invest in:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Cat-proof your home and garden to ensure their overall safety and security.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Create certain zones for certain pets or people in your shared space so everyone feels safe and confident.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.beverlyhillsvets.com\/pet-resources\/new-clients.html\">Schedule a vet visit <\/a>shortly after you bring home your furry friend. We can help them get started on the path to greater vitality and general health.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best Time to Adopt<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is never a better time to adopt a pet cat than right now, provided you are ready and willing to become the best possible owner. Adopting a cat and sharing a home together is one of life\u2019s richest, most gratifying experiences.
