Common conclusions
Great! You need to make sure you have time for the few things you must do when looking after your cat. These include feeding, grooming and giving her plenty of love and attention. Cats can be very self-sufficient, making them an excellent pet to have even though you work all day. Some breeds will happily keep themselves occupied all day. However, it is a safe idea to have someone around to feed and fuss your pet at all times.
If you are considering having a cat but still have a dog, you will need to consider if your dog would be able to handle a new cat. Some dog breeds are thought to be more cat tolerant than others, but the only way to say is to know your dog's personality.
Great. If you have a cat allergy, you will have to balance the advantages and disadvantages of having one.
Great! Food, litterboxes, litter, toys, identification and microchipping, bowls, parasite preventives, grooming equipment, enrichment products, and health care are just a few of the costs associated with owning a cat.
If you are not prepared to make a long-term promise then you should not get a cat.
That is great because many felines live into their late teens, and some have even been known to thrive into their 20s. With some luck, you and your cat will have many happy years ahead of you.
