What are the benefits of adopting a cat?

Answers:
Many to list. They give companionship and entertain you..however, will the cat benefit by being adopted by you?

Good you're asking before you consider adoption. Do you have friends/family that are owned by a cat? Spend time with that cat and if you smile, you're on the right road already!

Wonderful companionship, they are very independant, save a life.

Less breeding and less having to be put down at the shelter. And those cats being adopted out are usually the most friendly.

idk but don't let them be outside cats at all. Today i saw my cat on the side of the road inside out and we have camras so i watch to see what happened and these two dogs came and ate her then the huge birds ate her too! i hate dogs!

When your house burns down and you come crawling out the rubble covered in soot, your clothes burnt off you'll be glad to know your cat had watched the whole thing from across the street, unharmed and wondering why you didn't save his food dish.
He also wants to know where his squeaky toy is?

well, if the cat you adopt is anything like my bootsie then you will get (a.) a companion when ever you need one, (b.) comfort when ever i am bored, lonely, sad, boots is always there to make sure im okay, and (c.) a wonderful kitty that loves to relax and watch t.v or surf the internet with you.
YAY KITTYS!! WOO HOO!!! lol

Many things, I have had cats since I was born. They can take care of themselves, and don't need as much attention as dogs. All they really need is food, water, a litter box, a place to sleep, and a good pet every once and awhile. And if you need one they can be a great companion.

You are giving them a second chance at life
They are not pushed away into a small cage and not loved
They will thank you for it
It will have a better life instead of possibley being put to sleep
list goes on and on

GREAT STRESS REDUCERS and they make you feel better and laugh
