Plastic bags aren't so eco friendly too. Paper bags are 100% recycled paper (in Bristol) but recycled plastic bags are uncommon in foreign regions, like Korea......

Just wandering, is it possible to have a kitten with a puppy?

Should not be a problem.

You need to "introduce" therm gradually though to each other.

Here's another of the family cats............

Posing a bit I think!

He/She is the most handsome cat I've seen!!! Gotta get me own to join in! :P
My sister loves puppies, maybe we'll have cats and dogs in the house.

Its a she! Both cats above are female.

We also have two males......

They all get on, even though they are a mix of wild and domestic cats!

Hi Kevin,
HEY,,, I only see one kitty in the cat bed. Or are you talking about
your other kitty picture too. They both are very beautiful cats.
Looking forward to seeing more pictures.
N96HBK,,,
You sure can have cats and dogs in the same house.
Just make sure each has a spot to call their own.
And give them all lots of love.

Yup - I was talking about the one in the bed and the one in the bag!

Now I am very desperate to get a cat....:( I am really lonely sometimes, especially after leaving my friends. (Most of them are living in the UK)and I think a cat could really cheer me up.

As a cat person I will urge you to get TWO kitties.
This is why.
Get a boy and a girl. And brother and sister if you can. That's what ours are. Brumby is our boy,,, and Callie is our girl. We got them from a rescue vet. and they are going to be 8 years old this year.
They have each other to rely on when we are not home.
( that's the most important thing )
But they still play together,,, and wash each other,,, and sleep together too.
So if you can, get two kitties.
Please let us know how it goes for you too.
You have lots of cat support here in this forum.
Best Regards,
Gary

A year or so ago, this blog came to my attention; and, as Gary above says, the writer speaks often of the benefits of a cat having a cat companion. She also mentions what cat personality styles work together. The Way of Cats helps you understand, train, and love your pet cat
Lots of helpful material, I've done a lot of "save page as"
