So you want a kitten?... or so you think

So you want a kitten?
No. Actually its your kid who thinks you want a kitten.
OK. so what kind of a kitten should you get. What breed do you think would fit into your livestyle. will this new kitten be good to your kid? thats important. never mind if your kid is not cat friendly. whats important is that the kitten do not scratch or hurt your kid, even in self-defence, when its been manhandled.
How do you feed this new cat? with what?
you have no idea, do you?
But you still feel you need this cat, because your kid has been bugging you for one.
Actually, she wanted a puppy. But you figured a puppy is too much of a hastle, taking him for walks everyday and night. that's just too much work for a busy mum/dad..so a cat is easier. All you need is to make sure she goes to the litter box. You can clear the litter box every week, if you can find the time.
This first consideration has got to be overcome before we move on to the next topic and help...
