I prefer a cat that:   Will enjoy living indoors only

                               Will enjoy being outside while I’m with him/her

                               Will come and go independently

                               Will enjoy living in our barn

                               Will enjoy living outside only

 

As far as scratching:   I would trim cat’s nails regularly

                                    I would provide a scratching post

                                    I would train cat not to scratch furniture, if necessary

                                    I plan on declawing (nothing wrong with this, cat must be strictly indoor cat only)

 

Kitty habits I just can’t tolerate are: ___________________________________________________________

I would like more information about: __________________________________________________________

                                                            Example: cat to cat intro, dog intro, litter-box training, age at which cats can go outside, etc.

It sometimes takes a cat longer to adjust to a home that already has resident kids, dogs and cats.  In some cases the new cat and other animals may never bond, only tolerate each other.  How will you handle this? ________ ________________________________________________________________________________________
