I've found another great cat sitter- here at DU. Only the best for my Sweet Pea and Pats

They are going to get spoiled with only the funniest, left wingiest sitters know to man. First Swag and next up, my dear Progmom and family.

They're gorgeous. My daughter has been begging me to look into them.

We haven't had a pet for awhile, mainly because the kids were too small, but we're starting to waffle with all the begging now that they're old enough to treat an animal properly.

signs of shedding. They are also friendly and super affectionate to people and less allergenic for most people. Everyone goes nuts for them because they are not shy at all with new people and handle crowds well. They have never once hid under the bed! If you look at Animal Planet's site- they have a series of shorts on different breeds call Cats 101, the star of their Cornish Rex feature is Patsy's grandmother, and was 16 years old when they filmed it! Breeders will warn you they are extremely active and "a lot to handle" but really the most active cat is still 10X easier than a dog. They like to knock things off shelves and climb. They also typically insist on sleeping with you, unless you provide a warmer alternative. So, at least you know your kids won;t get bored and ask for a puppy.
