The Everything Animal Thread

I was just talking to a senior who lost her two older cats this year. She said she wanted to adopt a cat or two but didn't want a kitten. She wanted an adult cat who she wouldn't have to climb up and get the cat out of the curtains. I'll let you know what happens
I had sworn off kittens myself. The reason I changed my mind was because I thought my then, 11 year old Stella, would do better with kittens than an older cat. It turned out to be the right decision in my case. I will admit, I have days where they are a little too rambunctious for me and I think, omg, what did I get myself into.

I do understand why rescues don't want to give kittens to seniors but I feel like it should be a case by case situation. I'm fortunate that my adult son lives with me so if something should happen to me I know they will be taken care of. ❤️‍🩹
