Cat Breeders in the Area?

:roll: Thank you, all, for your great words of advice. I've been looking online at the local shelters and rescue groups and they certainly have a lot to choose from..... of course, that's going to be the hard part, choosing...

I over heard a conversation yesterday about the Grayton kitties. Apparently several locals do not want the cats around and have contacted Animal Control. I asked one particuliar guy what their beef was with the cats and he responded,'they eat birds and lizards'. Yea so does every other cat in the WORLD. I hope this does not happen. These Kitties are home to Grayton Beach.

Go, hang out, let one pick you. I was lucky, the ones I picked out online turned out to be the ones that picked me in person.

The 'approval' process seems a little scarey...... they recommend you go and browse through the animals, eventually picking some to hang out with until you figure out which one you want... and then you have to fill out all the paperwork and wait for them to tell you whether they approve or reject your application based on referals and history.

What if we become attached to a cat and they decide we're not good enough?????? What if they don't like us? What if one of my kids, say the four year old, well, acts like a four year old? What if...... I'm more nervous about this than taking out a mortgage for our home.

Unless you hold the cat over a vacuum cleaner (ala Papa Scooterbug at a young age) it's all good. ;-)

....yeah, but, unlike real estate......."Now REEEAAALLLLLY is a good time to get a cat."

Just calm down and chill out---cats can smell fear.

They will love you! Anyone who gives this much thought into the process will be a joy to approve - no doubt. Good luck!!
