Hi, we are looking into getting one or two kittens but have no idea where to start sensibly. I am wary of supporting dodgy backyard breeders / kitten farms (not even sure they are as much of a thing with cats though?). Would happily get rescue but there is just nothing available anywhere near us.
We have two kids age 8 and 10. Our beloved cat died and we had her for 15 years and could not have loved her more. We are in no rush as want to get it right but house is empty without a cat .
I’ve looked online and understandably most of the advice is to adopt. I have no problem with that at all but if we can’t do that are there any websites etc to avoid?
I’ve seen the Cats Protection kitten checklist which is great but seems to rely on us actually finding a kitten first.
Thanks for any advice.
