Hello,
I live alone in a fairly spacious 2 bed flat in a quiet cul-de-sac with a shared garden.
I work long hours - typically out of the house 11+ hrs 5 days a week. I stay in most of the time evenings and weekends and don't travel much. I am not in the market for a DP or DCs!
Am I bonkers for thinking I could have a cat or small dog? I just want something to love and the goldfish aren't cutting it! (Neither did my hamster or guinea pigs quite fill the gap as they're not very responsive - they don't "love you back").
I don't want to be unfair to an animal but OTOH surely there must be some rescue cat which would be a good fit for me? I have a craving for a small dog but work won't let me bring it in so I think that might be out of the question....
My DM says I'm bonkers but MN jury - your collective wisdom please...?
Thank you.
