Am looking to buy a kitten and don't know much about cats! I live in Surrey (if this helps!) and have two dds 3 and 5. Is there a particular breed that is more friendly? Or do you take pot luck? How much are kittens - dont want a fancy, designer cat - a regualr tabby will do! I would imagine a pet shop is a no no...
Thanks xx

My friend in High Wycombe has kittens. I'm going to pick up our gorgeous little tabby girl in a few weeks time. Meeting her at the weekend, I cant wait! High Wycombe might be a bit far for you though
Let me know if you're interested, I think she still has a couple left

Oh, I think she charges about £40. I might be wrong though. I'm getting ours for free as a birthday present so I haven't asked her this time round. I'm sure she charged this last time she had kittens.

Thanks - High Wycombe bit far also was looking to have the kitten around the summer hols as we will be home then. Are tabbies the way to go?

Re - tabbies : I've had cats of all colours, shapes and sizes and you definitely can't judge a cat by its cover!

Cats Protection has hundreds of cats and kittens needing homes and my very best cats have come from there. They can advise on a cat's character (which no-one can really tell in a kitten) and the cat will repay you every single day for giving it a good home.

Looked at the local cats protection league and all the rehoming cats were more suted to a quiet lifestyle - which they wouldn't receive in our house! Might consider this though - realising I am v ignorant on subject!

I did a stint fostering for Cats protection - it was fabulous I got all sorts of cats to foster from old calm ones to young tearaways and some kittens that needed hand rearing. My job was not only to give them a temp home but also to assess their personalities and to help them become decent household pets.
