Which brings to mind a big one:

Don't get too wrapped up in making sure every cat has a mate.

Don't get too wrapped up in trying to get every possible box.

It's better to have a plan, and work the plan.

You're missing the point, which is that doing anything to a kitten (pet mode, starve them) in an attempt to save money is fruitless, because it won't work out as you wish due to the recovery period.
