Is It Better to Adopt a Rubio Staffer, a Kitten, or a Water Buffalo?

Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio recently added “Adopt a Staffer for the Day” as an option in the campaign store. It costs you $250, and in return you'll be mentioned on Twitter and get an update from the impoverished Young Republican taker — who'd better be cute! (No, this is not welfare, since they have to work!)
How does it compare to other selfless adoptions you might try out?
-snip-
You can adopt a kitten from the ASPCA for about half the price of a Rubio staffer.
Apparently you can adopt an entire herd of manatees, Florida’s most famous aquatic residents, for the cost of a single Rubio staffer. Rubio staffers, however, are much less likely to be hit by a boat.

Never mind. I see everyone else watched the same videos I did.

And, if you adopt the Rubio staffer, you get free Spanish lessons from a real Mexican illegal.
DANG!

They appear in my yard and insist they live with me... I really don't have a choice in the matter.
