Fellow cat guardians, you know how rewarding it is to care for a precious fur baby. For the rest of you, let this video convince you why you need to adopt a cat!

First off, six to eight million dogs and cats enter animal shelters every year. That’s a lot of animals who need forever homes. Need some reasons to adopt a furry friend? For starters, they are very clean animals and relatively low-maintenance to take care of. Dogs may be hyper, fun and ready to play when you walk into the room, but cats could care less about going for a walk. They’re pretty independent and don’t require much supervision, so you won’t feel stressed out trying to take care of them. Plus, they make amazing cuddle buddies when you just want to put your feet up and relax!

We recommend you adopt a cat and bring some joy into both yours and a feline’s life!
