Cats

Cats have been domesticated for thousands of years and have become an integral part of our families. Responsible cat owners understand the unique personalities of their cats and will take care of their natural needs and boundaries.
 However, not all cats are fortunate enough to have a loving home. Hundreds of thousands of stray cats live on the streets, suffering from hunger and illnesses. It is crucial to treat all animals with kindness and compassion, and responsible cat ownership plays a significant role in reducing the number of stray cats.
