I had the thought recently that if I could only have one pet, it would be a cat. Not that I don't love my dogs and birds but cats are so easy and so loving. I always remember having cats but we didn't aquire a dog until I was 4. The dog was more of a long term project requiring quite a bit from us. Cats have always been independent and adaptable. My Memphis cat has been a good example of this. Cats can live inside or out, the city or country. Grandma's cat disappeared for 6 months before turning up a half a mile away in a barn. He was none the worse for wear. And nothing is better than a kitten. No one can be depressed that owns a kitten. It's entertaining to just watch them. Right now we have 6 cats in the immediate family. They all have their own personality- some more likeable than others, some don't get along and others seem to like each other. A cat in the lap is a wonderful thing.
