Perhaps, but people won't go to the SPCA since SPCA has adoption fees,
they are often abandonned cats that won't get along that well with a new
owner. One exception being my Tomcat, He's always following me around,
always in my lap, but it could have something to do with the fact that I
took care of him after getting in a fight with a dog. I had to
sterilise, clean, wash the wounds, and one of those was pretty serious,
he couldn't walk for 2 weeks...

(was taking him in my arms, in the shower, after a couple of times, he
learned to appreciate water to the point he often jumps in with me when
I'm taking a bath... strange cat, I could never understand him :)
