also agree that strays have less illnesses than pet shop cats.. or at least different types. mites, fleas for strays are inevitable. however things like cat flu, ringworm and other fungal infections are a results of the cramped conditions of cats in shops which strays do not have to endure. when you save a stray you are saving a life. When you buy from a shop you are encouraging the creation of more lives to be placed in shops.

It is SO TRUE. Some people just dont get this actually. Buying cats from petshop is like saving that one particular cat ONLY lah.
Furthermore, if buying pets at petshop = saving strays, hehe... then it should be free to take also lah I guess, no need to pay to the petshop la.
But seriously la, if THOSE CUTE KITTENS (LONG HAIRED ESP) at petshops are free to adopt, just like the strays some petshops put up for adoption, do you think they will be a lot of DLH kittens for adoption? Mass breeding cats for free? U think?
