Questions for all cat adopters:


 * AcqoybqKi.gif you have any other pets and how will they react to a new cat?
 * Is your current residence suited to the cat you’re considering?
 * How will your social life or work obligations affect your ability to care for a cat?
 * Do you have a plan for your new cat during vacations and/or work travel?
 * How do the people you live with feel about having a cat in the house?
 * Are you (or your spouse, partner or roommate) intolerant of hair, dirt and other realities of sharing your home with a cat, such as allergies?
 * Do you or any of your household/family members have health issues that may be affected by a cat?
 * What breed is the best fit with your current lifestyle? (You can find information on specific breeds in my cat breed directory.)
 * Is there tension in the home? Pets quickly pick up on stress in the home, and it can exacerbate their health and behavior problems.
 * Is there an adult in the family who has agreed to be ultimately responsible for the cat’s care?
