Should consider adopting this cat from a place or try elsewhere?

Filled in a form twice for a cat. Cat shelter written off TWICE due to sheer arrogance. After a 10 min phone with the receptionist to clear some stuff up. She passed on my no to this woman in charge of the cats. Who might phone me back. A kitten was adopted 9 years ago from here.

Honestly, with some of these places frankly its easier to adopt a baby than it is to adopt a cat. In my own case, they even came to my house to ensure it was suitable. I live in a sizable farm house!. It was a right long process that took weeks, it was ridiculous. I also paid for the jabs and microchip and it was only at a vets check up a year later i discovered he hadn't got a chip and i paid again! The cats league had filled in some paperwork but forgot to chip him.

I absolutely adore cats, you need to stick with it/ call them again but it does make you think twice for next time, which is a shame as these cats need a loving home and fast.

Good luck
