This little mister was a free find. We found him on the Facebook marketplace at no cost. He was just five-or-so weeks old, itching from fleas, sick with a stomach bug, and struggling with a double eye infection, but oh so cute. Long story short: When we finished our first vet visit and bought food, cat litter, and a carrier, we were knocking on $400 for this cute little critter. That's a lot for a cat, y'all. We're not sorry, but a lesson learned: It may be less expensive to collect a pet from a shelter or even a responsible breeder than getting a pet "free" from an individual. Our little Appolo is THE best cat ever. We may not have gotten a healthy kitten, but we sure did get a good one! We ❤️ our #rescue.
