I was thinking the exact same thing after catching up on this thread. I was all set, almost convinced myself to go ahead and get another cute little kitty, then started reading pooh's posts and began to remember what it was like with a kitty in the house. I coouldn't go out the door without using the lint brush first, my stockings ended up with runs, my blinds always had a bend somewhere, my curtains were used as a climbing wall, and cat hair floated in the breeze. I still want a kitty.

Well ... we currently have all of the above ... but Stella is so damn cute ... even when she's just been untangled [against her will] from the drapes ... I just can't resist a pink bunny nose on a cat. And I've been ingesting cat hairs in my food & drink for years anyway.
[And people wonder why all the cabinets & drawers in the house have so much velcro on them that people have a hard time opening them.]

Oh, I'm used to all that. We already have three adult cats. It's the whole "keeping a kitten out of things that might hurt it" part that has me thinking twice. Especially a Tasmanian Devil in disguise, which seems to be what Pooh got! I couldn't bring a kitten in here anyway - my adult cats would throw hissies. (And so would Chris!).

Adult cat hissies are par for the course. When there's no person in the room, the little devils get along just dandy. Lots of sibling rivalry & attention seeking behavior - think toddler day care!
She's exhausting us out [I figure we have probably 4-6 more months of wide open behavior] but I'd never take her back!
