I Want A Cat
46 Answers
I would love to have a cat but my husband is not at all keen.
We have both had cats all our lives apart from the last four years when we moved to the south coast and my husband has become housebound, (but I would be responsible for doing all the 'work' part of the looking after the cat).
I am slightly put off by the fact that there are a lot of neighbourhood cats around us and maybe we would be a cat too many, plus a non happy husband.
Any thoughts.

Get one that obeys orders, eats what you put down to eat, sleeps all night without waking you up and doesn't bite people who visit your house.
If you find one can you get one for me.
Is your husband just 'not keen' or is he totally against getting a cat? If he is housebound he may be the one that interacts with the vicious beast most - it is best to get him on your side.
Good luck

We have also had cats virtually all our lives and have a 17yr old cat currently. We have never had a cat flap because our cat chooses to sleep in at night. In fact, he likes to be indoors most of the time unless we go into the garden. Then he follows suit.
Because of our age (mid-seventies) we will not have another cat when our lovely Charlie passes on. It would not be fair on the cat.
Personally, l think you should both agree on the matter before you look for a new cat.

Wildwood - I described my brother as an"obedient husband" the other day.
Jenny - what about getting an indoor cat. Some rescues have cats that have diseases that can be transmitted to other cats and can't go out. My two are indoor cats, it is not the ideal life for them but it is all that they have known. They were adults when they move in.
A cat might be great company for your cat. Do you have a garden that could be made escape-proof?

Jenny, I live on the south coast too and I a surrounded by these evil creatures. I would Never EVER harm a cat but OMG, why does EVERY neighbour seem to have a least one cat? I love birds and put food out for them but the cats get in and eat the birdseeds, the fat balls and kill the birds. I've tried all sorts of things to keep them out but nothing works. Think very hard before getting a little killing machine.
