I have a month and a half until I return to work from my LTD leave, and I am thinking about adding a new pet to the mix, now that I'm in the recovery phase of my illness.
Does anyone have any suggestions of a sort of pet that is somewhat low maintenance, and that would work well with my boys? Russian Blues are quite high-strung and sensitive, so it would have to be a pet that wouldn't overwhelm them. Ideally, I wanted to adopt a pair of Siamese kittens, but I think it would be too much for Mik, who will be 7 this year. I'll likely wait until he crosses the bridge before I bring in kittens.
Any ideas would be most welcome!
