Question

In the persuasive essay "A Cat Is Not a Can of Soup," the author's claim is "Adopting a pet from the Ferndale Shelter is often a wiser move than buying one."
Which statement supports the author's claim?


During my visit to the shelter, I learned that its two paid staff members and 13 volunteers spend time with every animal.


According to Toni, 25 percent of their cats and dogs are undoubtedly purebreds.


Also, they will not allow any pet to leave the shelter until it has had its shots and has been neutered.


These shop owners may buy dogs from puppy mills, businesses that turn out puppies as if they actually were cans of soup.
