Hi everyone
We have been thinking about getting a kitten for ages, but there are a few things which are making me nervous... I didn't grow up with cats, so I feel a bit clueless!
So, firstly, we have a lovely 2 year old lab cross, who very rarely sees a cat and goes completely crazy when she does - chasing, barking etc. Am I made to consider getting a kitten - does anyone know how long it would take a dog to get used to her? I can't even imagine how it would work, as generally the dog hangs out in the kitchen, which is where the cat would be.
Second, my friend's cat has completely ruined her carpets and sofa by scratching them, and while I'm not overly precious, I would be really upset if our cat did that to our house. Is this something that we can avoid?
I'd really appreciate any advice.
Thank you!
Rachel
