''So, my mate walks in and sees my dog licking its balls on the sofa, mate says 'wish I could do that' - I say 'sure, I dont think he'll mind if you ask him nicely' ''
If you get a cat, dont get a cat flap otherwise its cat parties and cat hotel time.
Get them 'done' as soon as possible too otherwise you'll smell like you live in a Glastonbury toilet.
Hoover regularly too and make sure carpets are treated with anti flea 'stuff' - our local council does this much cheaper than the private companies and we and our cats have remained flea free for about 4 - 5 years since it was done.
If you dont, you'll get fleas and flee bites - fact. Other cats will pass them on to yours and they spread pretty quickly.
Vet insurance is tricky - ours were from a very healthy mother who in turn came from a very healthy line. We were lucky, they were immunized early on and they havent cost us too much over the years except for a genetic teeth problem of them rotting, causing them distress.
Collars with bells! The local bird population will suffer without them!
They will rule your house and you will bow down unto them for they are our Overlords - they must be honoured with food at least twice a day...
