Everyone knows that cats are the purrfect companions. What makes them so irresistible? Not only are cats adorable and charming – they also have hearts of gold. They are clever and undyingly loyal to the person who saved them from the street or from life in an animal shelter.

But many wonderful cats don’t have a special person to love or a lap to curl up on in the evening. Instead, countless cats across India are fighting for their lives on the streets or languishing in animal shelters because there aren’t enough good homes for them. PETA encourages people who are ready to open their hearts and homes to an animal companion to shun breeders and pet shops – which bring more animals into a world that is already short of good homes – and a rescued cat instead. We also urge dog and cat guardians to be sure to have their animals sterilised. After all, one unspayed female cat and her offspring can produce 370,000 cats in just seven years.
