I adopted my Diabetic cat from a wonderful place called Tabby's Place:

http://www.tabbysplace.org/

They take in cats with all types of medical problems. Truly a wonderful place. About 70% of their cats are special needs. There are plenty there that are not special needs but their adoptions help the ones that do need special care. Check out the pics. Amazing no kill, no cage shelter.

I can't believe I haven't added to this thread yet!

For anyone in the Pittsburgh/Southwestern PA/WV/OH area.....if you are looking for a cat, dog, or bunny to adopt, please consider Animal Friends, which is a wonderful no-kill shelter in the North Hills of Pittsburgh. They opened a gorgeous new facility a few years ago, complete with wooded outdoor walking trails for the dogs and free-roam rooms for the kitties.

I have been volunteering there for the past year, and have also adopted two beautiful cats from them. The staff is amazing, as are the hundreds of volunteers who devote their time and energy endlessly in support of these beautiful creatures.

They are open seven days a week, and can also be found here:

In San Francisco, Animal Care & Control is awesome. Here's the page for dog adoptions, which is where I got my Chi/Pom mix Zoe in May:

Greyhound Friends For Life, in Northern California Placement of ex-racing dogs, I am a volunteer. Dogs are fully vetted, castrated, and temperament-tested. They are usually well-socialized, having had much human contact from birth.

Also an ethical, responsible breeder is a good person from whom to buy a purebred dog or puppy, with a known past, known health and genetics (to the best of science's current knowledge) and temperament. Adults of various ages are often available, socialized retired showdogs, or dogs that didn't pass muster for showing, but still make good pets
