am i crazy for wanting to do this?update***

we lost our cat 3 weeks ago and have one left. today i went to get cat food at the pet store and saw 2 baby kittens and want them. i brought dh tonight and he said i can get one. then i said how can we split the 2 brothers up. so heres the thing. we have a 4 year old cat and will be adopting 2 kittens. we have a 22 month old and i am pregnant and due at the end of march. am i crazy for wanting 2 more kittens?



** we decided to hold off until the new year becuase it might be too nutty with a new christmas tree and 4 year old cat without claws and 2 - 11 week old kittens with claws. think it would be a lot with shots and vet visits. will revisit after baby #2 comes along.

i am all for it but dh says no for now. ***

nah, if they were dogs that would be different. Cats are great pets and more independant. There is the financial aspect but I say go for it.

I don't think so. If you were getting 2 puppies, well, that is nuts. You know, with all the work it takes to train a puppy. Two kittens-much easier- I think it is great!!

Yes, you are crazy. Just remember how you felt when you were constantly vacuuming when Olivia started crawling and when you entertain.

Good luck with whatever you decide though....Chat Icon

Personally I think its awesome to want to adopt the 2 kittens and I LOVE kittens. My only concern is the clawing and climbing when they are that little. They are also just babies and are nuts for the first year. They mean well, but they need to be trained. I'd be nervous with kittens around Olivia and a newborn.

How old are they?
