How do you know if a cat’s personality will actually match your lifestyle?
At the shelter, every cat seemed sweet in their little enclosures, but I know behavior can change at home. I live in a small apartment and work long hours, so I want a cat that’s more independent. But how do you tell at adoption time whether a cat will be clingy or chill once they settle in?
