So today we took the plunge and went to the local Cats Protection centre and had a chat and met some cats. We totally fell in love with one cat, although they won't reserve him until we pass the home visit - so we are crossing our fingers for a successful visit!
Thing is, I am not exactly sure what they are looking for. They know we don't have a cat flap yet and can advise on where best to place one, but other than that what do they want to see? I had a cat about 8 years ago but in a different house and that was one I got from a friend who couldn't keep hers, so I've never dealt with a rescue centre before.
I haven't bought any cat stuff yet as I want to wait until we are sure to get one before spending any money. Are they just looking to check the house is secure? Is there anything special we need to do?
I'm feeling really nervous.......
