oh!!! that makes me miss my little cyber sooooo much!!! he LOVED sleeping in the bathroom sink.

Your kitty is so appreciative that you warmed the spot for him!

That isn't free, so really, even though you are rescuing a sweet kitty, you are still buying it. And it is worth it. The only pure bred cat we have ever had was when I was a child and he was a rescue in a way. His owner was a breeder and was killed in a car wreck. Her mom worked w/ my grandmother and was trying to find homes for all the cats. It was my first example of an answered prayer in our house (though we would rather someone didn't die) because my dad said we couldn't have any other cat except a Siamese. He grew up with them, but I think he thought we couldn't ever get one. Well, we did. He lived 20 years!

My shelter system has discounted months and free months due to overcrowding. We have had several months in a row when all cats were free. It doesn't hurt to look online and check pricing but I prefer to give them full price anyway. Every little bit helps.
