Many children grow up wanting a pet and it’s not at all surprising. Spending time with a fluffy companion is amazing, and having a special bond with a cat is no exception to this. However, cat ownership can be a complicated affair, so here are some good points to keep in mind when considering this.
Cats Like Their Own Space
Often people may find themselves disappointed once they’ve brought their feline friend home. Cats love to find a quiet spot to sleep in during the day or enjoy perching somewhere with a view. They are very sociable as well when they want to be, so you will get plenty of affection from them when they’re in the mood. However, it’s good to keep in mind that they will spend some time alone fairly frequently.
Cats Aren’t Toys
Because they’re small and cute, people often seem to think cats can be played with like a doll. Most cats are really not keen on this, and may well let you know with their very sharp claws. This is especially important to bear in mind if you have young children and maybe would be better to wait until they’re old enough to understand and respect this.
