Read the quotation from "A Cat Is Not a Can of Soup." Good pets are often abandoned by selfish owners who move, have a change in their family situation, or dump the litters after letting their animals breed. Which claim does this evidence best support? You won't have a problem finding a gentle or sociable pet at the shelter. On the other hand, a definite point in favor of the Ferndale Shelter is that only animal lovers work there, and there are plenty of them to give the animals good care! Another advantage to visiting the Ferndale Shelter is that the workers have gotten to know the pets well and can help you make your choice. A great benefit that might surprise you is that pets are not expensive at a shelter.
