I've been wanting a cat forever...specifically a kitten...and I'm ready for everything that comes with getting a cat personally but I have some concerns. I just wanna know if it's a bad idea or not
1. I live in a smallish 2 bedroom apartment with a roomie, my roomie said she's fine with me getting a cat, but I know she's not terribly fond of them and is also allergic (so am I, but i'm willing to deal with it)
2. She's getting a leopard gecko around the same time I would get a cat, the gecko would stay in her room, but I'm still wary. has anyone here ever owned a lizard and a cat?
3. I'm an animator and I collect a lot of expensive collectibles and toys and such for movies/shows I like, if I leave these out on a bookshelf, do you think a cat would destroy or eat them?
4. I've never had a pet before! I'm very paranoid so I've been researching like crazy and I think I can handle it but is a cat the right pet for a pet newbie?
I'd really appreciate any advice! Thanks!
