adopting kittens

After grieving for my two cats that died, (one in December, one in January) I have started looking into adopting a kitten for sometime in October. I am moving to Sydney, where DH is from and I have started looking up places where we can adopt a kitten. I have had four cats over my lifetime and not once have i adpoted from a shelter; we always have just got cats from the neighbourhood as strays.

What are some things I should look for in a shelter? What should come with the cat (i.e. shots)?

I want to make sure I am getting the kitten from a good shelter. I hope this question makes sense Chat Icon.

Thanks for letting me know and as much as I want a cat right this moment, I cant. Since I am moving overseas (Australia), they are really strict about anything that comes into the country. They even xray your bags AFTER you go thru customs! B/c they do not have rabies over there, they require a 6 month quarantine and I don't think this is a good idea for a kitten. Thanks anyway!
