Cats are one of the most popular pets in the world. There are an estimated 60 million pet cats in the United States. More than 90 percent of these are mixed breed cats. A ccording to the Pet Food Manufacturers’ Associ- ation, people choose a cat as a pet for compan- ionship and love, and because they are easy to care for and get along with other species. Cats and kittens are very adaptable and can be found in all sorts of households—single homes, busy families, older couples, country or city, apartment or house. Provided they are safe from danger and can have their basic care needs met, a kitten will thrive in many different living environments.
