Pet Problems
If you are planning on buying or adopting a cat, you should keep several things in mind. Hair might be a problem for some, and constant grooming is required, depending on the cats breed. Cats are also known for sharpening their claws on whatever they can find, and this includes your couch and armchairs, and lastly, the litter box must be kept clean at all times.
After me and my girlfriend went over everything we could find about cats, we decided to get a Birmanese kitten. It was quite scared at first, and wouldn’t play with us, but after a couple of days, my girlfriend finally convinced it we were friendly and it started playing with us. The only problem was it was very curious, and nothing in the house was safe from it.
By nothing I absolutely mean nothing. That cat cat had absolutely scratched up my cds. All my CDs were scratched, and my couch was beggining to show signs of wear from the constant clawing. My little kitty always had to have its bowl filled with food or else it would get up on the kitchen table and try to eat what it could find. Milk with kitty hair in it just isn’t good, trust me.
Unfortunately, another item that fell to its claws was my iriver clix 2gb. I really loved that thing and considered it to be one of the best things I’d bought. Even though my girlfriend found it funny how I found it chewed up in a corner, I was determined to give the kitty away. Until she bought me a new player and I wasn’t mad anymore.
I’ve started keeping all my important things inside a locked desk, and consider anything left outside scratch-resistant. So does my kitty, probably, because It really puts it to the test. Having full reign of the house, my kitty now thinks its more important than me. My girlfriend seems to think so too!
