A kitten from the rescue costs $50. For that you receive a kitten who has been:     Spayed/Neutered ($50-$200)     Microchipped ($50)     Vaccinated ($15)     Dewormed ($15)     Tested for FeLV/FIV ($40) Plus you get a free 20 lb bag of Cat Attract, free bag of cat food, and free initial checkup vet visit to South Mesa Vet Hospital or any other participating vet clinic. If you had to do all that for a "free" kitten it would cost you between $200-$320!

Adult cats are an even better deal! For $50 (new cats), $25 (adult cats at shelter longer than 30 days), or $10 (featured cats) you receive a kitty who has been:     Spayed/Neutered ($150-$200)     Microchipped ($50)     Vaccinated for FVRCP/FeLV/RV ($45)     Dewormed ($15)     Possibly had dental work ($300+) Plus you get a free 20 lb bag of Cat Attract, free bag of cat food, and free initial checkup vet visit to South Mesa Vet Hospital or any other participating vet clinics. That's a $230-$350 value!
