I'm looking to get a black kitten. What is best, buying one from a pet store or adoption?
I want to get a black kitten and I need to know what would be best to do. I want one that has short hair as well.

Adopting is far better than purchasing from a pet store, however if you are worried about any behavioural or health problems you might find in a kitten of unknown origin in a shelter consider buying from a registered breeder. Buying a pedigree cat from a quality in-home breeder guarantees the genetic health of the cat and a great temperate and depending on the breed you are interested in can be quite inexpensive. There are several breeds of cat that are or come in black, such as the Bombay. Consider that buying a cat from a breeder who tests their stock may save you money in vet bills down the track, and being raised in a secure and loving environment also helps minimise the potential destruction of your furniture if kittens are used to using a litter box and scratching tree.
If you are unable to buy from a breeder than definitely consider a shelter, an make sure you get some information on temperament first, and a copy of the cats health records. Also take your cat straight to another vet for a second health check, while I have two pedigree cats now my last cat came from a pound and she was a terror for the first few months but with time and patience grew into a loving companion.
Definitely adoption. This way you’ll be helping a cat that would otherwise be stuck in a kennel or possibly even put down. Pet stores are often cruel, as animals are bred in unsuitable conditions and not cared for properly (as it is, after all, a purely money-making business, not a service like a shelter). By buying a kitten from a pet store you are supporting this cruelty. I would never purchase any animal from a pet store. There’s plenty of choice in shelters and you’re sure to find the perfect kitten.
I agree. Adopt. The one thing I did when I went to adopt is I sat with the kittens for awhile. Pepper (my cat) is the only one that walked up to me and played with me. That’s my suggestion just be sure you find a connection with the kitten before you adopt it. I think you’ll be a lot happier.
