Paige has been been desperate for a pet for years, and really would love a cat. I am very almost convinced and thinking about getting her a kitten for her 6th birthday (It would be a family pet, but she would be so happy to get one on her birthday!)
I have never had a cat as a pet, and have no idea what to look for, what the 'essentials' are etc.
How old should a kitten be when it is able to leave its mother? Where would I find a kitten that I can be assured has been looked after well etc.
Her birthday is at the end of January, so have a bit of time yet, but I want to know what to expect and what i need to do!
Also, are female/male best? Any particular types to avoid? (She would be thrilled with any cat, so breed is not really issue)
So yeah, anything you can tell me please do!
