So after making sure my cat had all necessary shots, check ups and what not, I had to pay an additional $120 just for the new cat I'm "adopting" (their term for purchasing)... and I finally get the cat over a week later.

All this for a 3+ year old cat already.

They're damn lucky that I have a soft spot for wanting to help strays... cause the hoops almost makes it not worth it.
