Yup. Don't buy cats, get them at cat welfare or spca or even the streets around your housing estate. A neighbour of my found not one but TWO beautiful persian cross cats! Despite attempts to find the owner, no body turn up!

As for me I found a persian cross kitten at my back door meowing his head off and who is now almost 2 years old. I didn't know he was a "HE" because of all his fur until he mounted one of my female cats! Luckily she was already sterilised. I thing good about him is that his fur is not so long, though its very soft, that I don't even need to comb him and no tangles at all! He actually looks more like a racoon.
