    Thanks! I’ve been looking at Neko as well. How did you find the adoption process? Was it long? How long did you need to wait?

    I would love to take a pair but I think since it’s my first time having a pet, maybe one would be fine for now? Idk

      Pairs will be better if you can. That way they have a companion and then there are less behavioural issues. A bonded pair or siblings is great fun.

      Second other’s advice about pairs, highly recommended to adopt as pairs… Siblings or bonded pair.

      We have three cats, two of which are siblings. The three of them are on friendly terms, but the siblings usually sleep together lol.

      Congratulations on the approval. Looking forward to the adoption news.

        Thanks mate! Approximately how much do you spend per cat per week? I was told about $200 per month by a coworker but wanted to hear more estimates!

          Per 4 weeks, in total for our three:

          • $150 on wet food

          • $80ish on dry food

          • $35 on litter (cheapest one, also the only one my wife likes)

          I don’t bother with proper cat beds anymore, since they almost always just ignore it in favour of our bed or a worthless cardboard box lol.

      Adoption process was too easy. We went to the cafe back when it was a think. Went to see cat X, who wasnt super friendly. Our backup option was VERY friendly. We were asked a few follow up questions and then away we went. Took him home then and there.

      The only reason I bring up a pair is because they said cat 1 was totally ok by himself and didnt need a friend, but within a week it became apparent that wasnt totally accurate. We got him a friend, but she isnt totally into him. We would have been so much better off with a bonded pair from the get go. 2 cats is a lot easier than 1 some times.

      If you do go see them, tell them Woodro and “Tuesday” say hi.
