As soon as I move to a place that allows them, I’m definitely adopting a cat. I just love animals and become so depressed when I’m away from them for too long. As a nursing student, I don’t think I’ll be able to devote the time and one-on-one attention that a dog or young kitten needs,but I think that an adult cat might be a good start. They tend to be more self-reliant I’ve found. Thoughts? Experience anyone?
