Have you shown your mom the pictures? I'm not normally one that believes in giving pets as gifts, I know your mom wants one, but don't you think she should also be active in the selection process? To answer your question, the little girl is really cute, but I worry so much about people on limited incomes, finding a good deal. How much do you know about the breeder, what if there are health problems, some illnesses are so expensive to treat. All that said, I would get her.
