I would definately go the shelter route, there are so many cats out there who really need homes. I'm also going to echo what AtomicRose said about possibly getting an older cat, because they're so much harder to adopt. My guy was roughly 1 year when we got him (but well out of his "kitten" stage) and they were even having a hard time adopting him.

I would definately recommend spending some time with the cat one on one at the shelter to see how he/she responds to you rather than just basing it on what the staff say about him/her.

Also, if you want a declawed cat and you're going to adopt an older cat, I would recommend looking for one that's already declawed. My boyfriend used to work in an animal hospital and he said it's a lot harder on older cats to get declawed than when their kittens.

Good luck!
Kelly
