Small balls of fur with big, round eyes stare up at you begging you to stop and play for just a minute. These are the kittens that greet you every time you walk in the pet store doors. You’ve thought about adopting, but you know kittens are a big responsibility. Kittens are also a lot of fun and make great companions.

Before taking the big step, stop by a local vet Gresham and ask about their kitten starter programs. Share your plans to adopt and ask for ideas on where to adopt and what to look for when choosing a new kitty. Many adoption programs will help you in your new venture by providing discount adoption fees and free starter kits that include food, bedding, toys and more. You’ll discover a great team of supporters to help you welcome your kitty into his fur-ever home!
