How to select a cat

[LadyAgripina]

I've been wanting a cat for my daughter for ages, but I have a jack russell. Now, there is a mouse invasion at home and the jack doesn't even bother (she is 11), so we decided to try with a puppy cat (the dog had some contacts in the past and it worked) even being aware of a long process of desensitisation. My question is: which cat is easier for first time owners? Which are more hunter prone? Which are the more stay at home ones? My house is three floors (old house), do cats move?

Thank you for any advise

Oh @Nemorth I am so sorry about what happened to you. My JRT is cuddly and nice and we had her since my daughter was 5 year old. She was raised by our lab that passed away 2 years ago, that was an angel.

Anyway, plan cat was aborted and rentokill is coming next week.

I wanted the cat for her own sake, though.

Thank you for all the advice, it was duly followed.
