Make sure you are prepared to make the committments needed to have a pet and make your choice carefully to ensure you can properly house, enclose, feed, exercise, maintain and love and care for your pet.
Cats - are ideal pets - clean, quite fastidious, they need little exercise, can happily exist in a small living space provided you understand their nature, habits and needs and provide proper care and attention. They are usually intelligent, pretty independent and very inquisitive, happy lying around and observing.
