Just wanted to thank Deb 25, Hissy & Sandi for all of their great advise on a new kitten. I will most likely go to the SPCA this week-end and start my hunt. You were all rite about getting an older cat,perferable a female, and spayed. Will keep yall posted as to what happens. Hissy, thank you for the offer for the female cat, wish I did live closer. We are in Virginia though.I will keep visiting the forums. I'm sure I will have a few more question .
