I don't know anyone that has paid for a cat. I've had two that needed a home. My wife brought three to our marriage, one from a shelter and two from litters of people she knew.

I've paid the local cat shelter adoption fees, but I don't think that counts. It helps them stay in operation, and covers things like spaying/neutering.

I've had a few cats in my life and I've never once paid for one, Hell I've never even gone to a shelter to adopt one, they just show up. Naturally every time I take to the vet to get checked out and see if they're chipped. nope. just random kitties that decide "you seem nice and seem like you'll feed me"

I did, but it turns out it was a Trojan cat. We have 10 now (finding homes for them, 10 is not sustainable lol).
