If you want to give a home to an unwanted cat or kitten,go to a welfare agency or humane society. There are several big,well-known national organizations as well as many smaller charities that cater fr homeless or unwanted cats.
Cats are not usually released to a new owner until they have been given a veterinary check ,but the organization may not have had the time or resources for full investigations.This is particularly the case with feline immunodeficiency disease or feline Aids,the test for which is quite expensive.However,coats are routinely checked for parasites and fungal conditions,and the ususal vaccinations are often given. The main welfare organizations usually do investiage thoroughly,including blood tests to ensure feline Aids and leukemia are not present.In addition once an animal has been chosen,they visit the home of the prospective owner to endure that it is suitable.Such attention to detail means that they may have charge for the kitten,which may take the potential buyer think twice before buying.But whatever the cost ,it is certainly less than the cost of bringing a stary in dubious condition to peak fitness.
