Buying vs. Adopting
Cost
In most cases, adopting only requires paying a limited spaying/neutering fee.
The 15,000 HKD for buying pets is uncertain (though it's been a long time since we've entered a pet-selling store).
Health
When adopting, animal welfare organizations will thoroughly check the pet's health condition. Only healthy pets will be adopted.
When buying, although the pets appear cute and lively, it is not uncommon for them to fall seriously ill or even die shortly after.
Emotionally stable
Adopted pets are usually emotionally stable, well-behaved, and less likely to cause trouble.In summary, they are usually more well-behaved.
Pets that are usually bought are often puppies; they don't know better yet, will chew and cause damage, and leave droppings everywhere, etc. In general, they are usually a bit more troublesome.
Behavioral issues
Adopted pets are retrained to ensure they have no behavioral problems before being given up for adoption.
Pets bought from stores often have behavioral problems due to insufficient training, such as food guarding, water guarding, toy guarding, and even aggression.
Aside from these obvious differences, there are many additional benefits, such as:
1. It can spare them from the fate of euthanasia.
2. The sense of accomplishment is unparalleled because you have given a life a new lease on life.
3. Make it so that breeding farms and pet stores have no opportunity to profit. Give the once-abused pets a warm new home. Newbies have many volunteers to guide them. Influence those around you to choose adoption when they want to get a pet.
Actually, as long as you search online for "pet adoption," you'll find countless organizations available for adoption. Hurry up and take action!
