We want to adopt a cat. Dc are 5.5, 3.5 and 1.5. I've spoken to the cat rescue near us (it's the main cat rescue in our city) and they will adopt to us. I asked whether we should get a cat or kitten and she said it was up to us.
The house is suitable in terms of being able to give a cat space from the children. I'm well aware that the children shouldn't be left alone with the cat/play with her unsupervised etc. but I am hoping for a family pet that wants to spend time with the 5 year old and isn't just utterly frightened by the noise and movement of small children.
I've had a look at their foster cats online and there are a couple that look like they might be a good fit all round but I'm very aware of not wanting to upset a cat who would be better off in a different home.
Any advice would be welcome.
