Do you go to animal shelters ever?
1_Wizard
Yes, I have.
0_Apprentice
Have you ever adopted an animal from one? I got a cat once.
1_Wizard
Yes, I actually adopted two cats from a shelter.

Wow, I think it is better to adopt than it is to buy from a breeder.
1_Wizard
Totally agree with that. Breeders serve a purpose, but only legitimate ones.

Right, but there are a lot of animals in shelters that need homes.
1_Wizard
a 6 to 8 million animals are brought to shelters each year, of which an estimated 3 to 4 million are subsequently euthanized

That is so sad, I wish there were a way for all of the animals to be adopted.
