I have a black cat. She adopted us last year. She started by making friends with my daughter and I tried to ignore it, presuming she had an owner somewhere. But my daughter started to feed her every day without telling me. So eventually she weedled her way into our family , as cats do, and now this is her home.

Right now I don't have any pets due to a busy life being a single mom with two active boys..it wasn't fair to a pet. But now that I have a partner who can help..we are considering getting a Boxer pup.

My mother was the cat lover in the family.She'd pick up stray all the time and bring them home and feed them.Then she'd end up keeping some.
There was a mother cat and kittens running around here but I haven't seen them lately.

I've heard from people who have either have boxers or have had them tell me that they are nice dogs.

I was never a cat person, thought I was a dog person. This is the first cat I ever had. But I realise now that cats are sooo much easier to handle! They dont need to be brought for walks and just laze around most of the time!
None now, but I had budgies. The first came to my apartment through the 9th floor balcony. I had to go away for a while, so I bought him a girl friend. So it started. But they all died for one or other reason, only the first one died of old age. I don't want any more pets, I am getting too upset when they are not well and dying, I just can't cope with it.

That's true about having a cat.I can't have a cat cause I'm allergic to cat dander.
