If you want to raise a cat, the first thing to consider is the purchasing channel. Regular purchasing channels can guarantee the quality of the cat. Many people don’t know where to buy it. Let me tell you about it below.

Where can I buy British shorthair cats?

1. Major online trading websites: This type of purchase method is the least guaranteed. Buyers cannot see real kittens, life scenes, or seller qualifications. You can't see the cat breeding qualifications or the contract guarantees. Buying cats in a place like this is a scam for the buyer.

2. Buying and selling cats on private networks: For example, micro-businesses are mainly active on major pet websites and expressly imply that they have cats for sale. These are also not advisable.

3. Black Heart Pet Shop: How to know whether it is black or not? It depends on whether there is a formal contract, including vaccines, deworming, health guarantee for at least half a month, genetic disease guarantee for at least two years old, etc. If there is nothing, the buyer is spending tens of thousands of dollars to help the pet store provide hospice care for sick cats.

4. Free adoption in the same city and stray animal shelters in the same city are channels that can be considered, but the probability of encountering adopted cats is too low. Note the word "free" here. Once you withdraw money from the buyer, you turn around and leave. Don’t imagine that someone is selling pedigree cats at low prices because of reasons such as “family doesn’t allow it”, “wife is pregnant”, or “on a business trip abroad”. This deception is really not new.

5. Buying from acquaintances or overseas is a better channel. Acquaintances are generally more assured and can be protected. Buying overseas is more troublesome, but it is also recommended to find a reliable seller.

6. Regular catteries are the most recommended place to buy, but consumers still need to keep their eyes peeled when purchasing.

The specifics should be based on the actual situation.
