Youngest dd (6) is completely animal obsessed and both dds have been desperate for a pet for years. After much deliberation, dh, who is allergic to cats is now relenting and says we can get a kitten or even 2. Neither of us has ever owned a cat so have no idea about what's involved or the likely costs. Can anyone point me in the right direction please? I've read that some cats are less allergenic but these seem to be much more expensive and generally house cats which I'm not keen on given that the house will be empty during school hours 4 days a week. I don't want a lonely cat, hence considering siblings but have no idea of the average monthly cost. Also considering when might be a good time given that we've a couple of hols booked next year. I'd dearly love a cat but want to get all the facts before making a decision - don't want dh to regret it given that he's already willing to up his anti-histamines for us! Any advice gratefully received
