I don't even know how to express these sentiments correctly.

A week ago I decided it would be nice to have a cat. I've never had a cat. I'm told their low maintenance animals, but that hasn't stopped the spazzing, and reading, and searching, and comparing, and forum browsing.

Granted, I'm naturally a spazz, so it fits the profile.
I think it has to do with my being talked down from a cat to a kitten, up from a kitten to a pair.
But the breed was my decision, and I will have no one to blame for that.

Even though I *know* what I'm getting into, I simply feel excited. I literally collapsed to the floor when the breeder said the pair was only 6 weeks old. I collapsed in a childlike, "I have to wait how much longer?" drama queen flair. I was not on the phone, by the way, my Beloved was.

So, am I looking at a life of going from Dog to Bird to Rodent to Cat person? Maybe so. Goodness knows I have a digital camera and I'm not afraid to use it.

Plus, my Beloved has a strong "must nurture something" drive and I need to provide him with distractions before he tries to find that completion in a human infant. *shudders*

Spazz.
