we always rescued all out cats from the pound...and always took the most wierd looking reject ones we could find, the ones no one else would take! and they were always the best pets!!! my cat who lived for 21 years and only died last year was SO tiny and had a really short tail,she looked so thin and had a huge head! but she was the BEST cat ever! sorry...off topic

Our current cat has so far cost us $1500 in vets bills and she isnt even 6 months old yet (de-sex/fleas/worms/and bitten by brown snake!)....i dont think people realise how expencive pets can be and all the stuff that comes with them.
