I want those kitties so bad!

Every weekend, a cat and dog rescue brings some of its cats and dogs in cages and sits on the sidewalk by Hasting's. Today I went to look at the cats. There were these two that I wanted sooooooo bad. One was an orange tabby, and one was a white cat with brown splotches on her face and back. As soon as they saw me, they meowed loudly and wouldn't stop until I came to their cage and petted them. Every time I tried to leave, they would try to get out of their cages to come after me and meow loudly! They were so cute! I wanted them so bad! But Mom said, "One cat is enough!"

Note: oops, I posted this in the wrong forum by accident! Could one of the moderators move it please?

One cat is never enough. The best thing you can do for your cat is get another to keep him/her company. Ideally, it is best to get littermates, they're already used to one another and you can avoid "kitty karate" in the getting-to-know-you period.

No problem, I'll move it to the Lounge for you.

That is exactly why I don't ever go look at the adoption center they have in Petsmart. My lease limits me to two kitties, and I always want to take them all home.

I on occasion go to my humane Soc. and drop off food. I ALLWAYS find a cat i want so bad. I think about him/her for a couple of weeks, and then the yearning goes away.(thank God) Or i would have 35 cats by now! Part of being a good pet owner is knowing your own limmits. There are probably a lot of us here who have to constantly dig down deep to find the will power to resist.
