I've been looking for the right rescue cat to adopt and although I was thinking of a young adult cat I made the mistake of visiting a litter of rescue kittens... I am waiting on a bit more information but I am pretty sure one of them is the right personality to be a good family cat for us. Rationally there is no reason why not - we can afford it (incl insurance/vets), have no other pets, I work from home, kids are old enough to be sensible, we have no holidays booked until August. I have plenty of animal experience but have never had a kitten. It's exciting but also really scary.... What if it gets stuck somewhere/falls off something/eats something it shouldn't?? What if one of us gets ill or loses our job?
Also, how am I ever going to get any work done with an adorable kitten around getting into scrapes??
Just needed to share as I haven't told the kids and husband isn't such an animal person and doesn't quite understand the nervousness...
