I LOVE cats- we always had a couple in the house growing up- when my sister and I moved out, "our cats" were in their teens, mine had survived cancer, and my parents wouldn't let us take them from the house, they said it would be too hard on them. Then my sister and I got a cat while we were living together, but the cat adored my sister, so when I moved out- my sister kept her. So I have been without a cat since then. I have been wanting to get a kitten so bad.

Yesterday I was at the vet and they had a little kitten in the office, the little guy is ADORABLE- all black- and not even 8 weeks old- he was abandoned at the office before his eyes even opened and one of the techs had to take him home and bottle feed him. They let me hold him and he is a BRAT- so feisty, just the kind of kitten I like. I am leaving tomorrow for a three week trip- so obviously I couldn't take him- but they said he will likely still be there in three weeks and if he is, I could adopt him. I am trying to decide what I want to do.

My issue is all the other cats my dogs have been around were declawed long ago- but after doing my own research, I would never do this to a cat of mine- so I worry about those sharp little claws around the dogs- does anyone have a kitty with claws and how do you keep little yorkie eyes safe?
