Cat, Kittens, & Assorted Felines

June 21, 2008 · Print This Article

My almost 6 year old daughter desperately wants a cat.

I’m not sure how much longer we can deny her…but we are dog people.  Cats are alright, but I just like the friendliness of dogs better.  Am I wrong?

I scoured etsy to find some cute faux felines that may appease my Miss P a little while longer.

If you have a cat-crazy little lady at home, sans cat, you may want to investigate some adorable etsy kitties and adopt a few of your own.  You do not need to spay or neuter these critters.

ETA- I must tell you that if we cave and adopt the kitty (I’m sure we will), we DEFINITELY would find her at the shelter or a rescue.  Even our current pets, the male guinea pigs named after Disney Princesses, came from a rescue.  All of my pets my entire life have been rescues, strays, or pound adoptions.  That is non-negotiable. ;)

    Oh my. Cats are so much better! Owning cat says “I have exquisite taste”. Owning a dog says “I have to go scoop”.
    How about letting her do the Build A Bear Tropical Hello Kitty in the meanwhile?
    Whatever you choose..please choose your local shelter. :)
    I love the etsy kitties!

    I agree! Cats are so much easier! We have three and one dog. All are rescue pets. We are afraid however that our girls are developing allergies to the felines. I am terribly allergic myself and live on Zyrtec because I love them. I have never had to give a pet up, but I may have to! I am so distraught! No shelters for us though… just another warm, loving home.

Got something to say?
