Meow!

I want a cat. No, a kitten. A fluffy little fur ball of a kitten to snuggle with. Every time I see my friend's cat, Cooper, it makes me want one even more. But is a pet a good idea for us post grads to have right now?

Pros:

1. Cute, Cuddly play thing
2. You may be saving an animal from euthanization
3. No more mice or rats anywhere around your house

Cons:

1. They cost money to maintain
2. You have to clean up after more than yourself
3. It's probably against your lease

So is it worth it? I'm currently thinking not because I'm not sure if I can give an animal the attention it needs either. I can't even give myself the attention I need. But I still really want a kitten.
