| I wanted to adopt a cat, but the cat charities here (UK) have completely unrealistic requirements. Like, constant access to outdoors and a fully cat proofed garden. Not happening. So I had no choice to buy, got my ragdoll from a lovely breeder - and she’s an angel. |

| Rescues: You need to pay absurd costs to adopt Rescues: Why doesn't anyone ever adopt? |
| Elite Colours |
| Often times at the shelter near my parents, the dogs and cats are sent out to rescues before anyone has a chance to adopt, especially if they're a desirable type or young (<2) |
| Haloed Legends |
| Oh yeah at our shelter it costs at least $150 to adopt a cat. Dogs are like $300 |
| God is Mighty Stable |
| I also know that shelters in my area don't allow dogs to go to working homes, like LGD, Herding, & Hunting |

| On top of things, the rescue was wanting $2-300 for their small breed terriers. Mom just gave up and got a chi/doxi mix off craig's list lmfao |

| Norm's only little but he makes a good guard dog. A bit too good most of the time lol, I'm trying to get him to chill out a bit |

| I've also been looking at GSD breeders and some of them have requirements in line with rescues. It's just been a very frustrating process. |
| The Old Gods |
| It's typically cheaper and less hassle to just buy an animal than going through a rescue |
| Fairy Valley Stables |
| Jericho Absolutely and I used to work at a shelter (I'm in New Zealand). So many of the requirements are absurd and beyond what the average person who could offer an amazing home could reach |
