Hi there, I am in Suwon Korea and I am wondering where to buy a kitten, either here or Seoul. If you could please let me know right away I would really appreciate it. ^-^

Don't buy animals. People here are always giving cats away. Or, try a vet that will give them away for free. There is one at Sunae Station in Bundang, and I'm sure there are others.

For example, see this post:

Jmbran11 is right. Also, if you just need an animal to take care of and aren't sure you can make a long-term commitment, you could look into fostering. There are so many kittens who could use a temporary place until they're ready to be adopted ... I think some of the folks at www.lonelylifetime.com are starting a project to help street cats, and I'm sure someone over there could get you involved in foster care.

Posted in the orther thread as well:

There's a woman in Itaewon named Joon who is into pet rescue. Besides her own 3 (4?) full-grown cats, she has anywhere from 1-3 momma cats and all of their babies at the same time. She's always looking for people to ADOPT (not buy) the kits. Usually she gets the moms spayed first, then she lets you take them home.

PM me if interested.
