Choosing your Cat or Kitten is not always as easy as you first might think, there are a lot of things to be taken into consideration. You need to realize that a kitten is in essence a baby and as such requires a lot more time and attention than a grown cat does. It’s not to say that an older cat doesn’t require time and attention, but normally they are easier to care for than a baby kitten. If you decide to get a male cat you have to make the decision on whether or not the cat is going to be neutered. Just as a cautionary note, when a male cat is not neutered they tend to have a much different personality. You might find that they spray urine all over, will try to roam, and might just pick fights with other cats if there are  any in the house or outside. When you choose to neuter them, you will be able to avoid a lot of these tendencies.

Female cats have different traits than male cats do. They are a more careful and gentle than males are. They tend to also be quieter as well. Again comes the question on whether or not to spay your female feline companion. If you choose not to you will be looking forward to dealing with her heat cycles and all that comes with it, especially not a good thing if you have any unneutered male cats in the house.

Once you have made a decision on whether the cat will be male or female you need to decide how much hair that you want to contend with. That is, do you want to get a long haired cat? or a short haired cat?

You next need to decide how much money you really want to spend. The reality when you go to buy a cat or Kitten is you can choose from mixed breeds or purebred cats. When you buy a mixed breed there isn’t quite as much to worry about because you don’t have to worry about all the pedigree issues and such, plus as you might have guessed they aren’t going to cost quite as much. On the other hand all of that changes when you plan to buy a purebred.
