Finding the right fur baby for your home
Bringing a new kitten into your home is an exciting experience , but it also requires careful consideration . Unlike dogs , where breeds vary significantly from Chihuahuas to Great Danes , cat breeds tend to be less diverse . Most people focus on coat length , colour , and where to adopt from rather than specific breeds . With shelters full of unwanted cats and kittens , adopting a kitten can be a more compassionate and cost-effective choice than buying a purebred .
KEY BEHAVIOURAL TRAITS TO CONSIDER
When selecting a kitten , it ’ s important to think about several behavioural traits that can affect how well the kitten will fit into your home :
• Affection : Will the kitten be affectionate with family members ?
• Social Outgoingness : Are they socially outgoing and friendly ?
• Aggression : Are they aggressive towards humans or other cats ?
• Litter Box Reliability : Will they reliably use a litter box , or do they prefer being outdoors ?
• Urine Marking : Are they likely to mark their territory with urine indoors ?
