June has gone to the cats: it’s Adopt A Cat Month! We love meeting new feline patients that have just been adopted into loving homes. Of course, when you bring Fluffy into your life, she isn’t the only one who’ll benefit. A Oconomowoc, WI vet lists some reasons to adopt a furball in this article.
One thing we can say for sure about cats: they definitely have a special way of keeping us laughing. Fluffy can be absolutely hilarious when she is pouncing on a catnip mouse or just chasing that spot of light reflecting from your watch. There’s a lot to be said for having a pet that can put a smile on your face on even the worst days.
Cats really do turn houses into homes. Fluffy can be a comforting, calming presence, even when she’s just dozing in a sunbeam or watching you from a chair. Our feline friends also make great cuddle buddies. Many kitties love to snooze in their humans’ laps during movies, and then snuggle up with them at night.
We know, this one isn’t quite as important for most people as it once was. However, Fluffy does still help keep unwanted guests out of our homes. If you have a cellar, barn, garage, or even just an old and/or large house, you may appreciate having a little help with mouse evictions.
If you have little ones, you have even more of a reason to adopt a new kitty. Cats make wonderful friends and companions for kids. Their purrs and snuggles can be very soothing to children on bad days. Plus, Fluffy can teach your children about unconditional love, friendship, and the value of a good nap.
No one person can fix all the issues facing the world. However, small acts of kindness do make a difference. Saving a sad, lonely kitty and giving her a wonderful, loving home may not change the world, but it will definitely change Fluffy’s world.
Our feline pals know when someone has been kind to them. You may soon be the apple of Fluffy’s eye. You’ll be repaid with unconditional love and endless purrs and cuddles. Not a bad deal at all!
