So I'm getting a cat. A kitten, actually. His name is Oliver and he is about 8 weeks old. I'm really excited! I'm bringing him home on Thursday after he has his last shots. I've been getting ready for him to come home for a couple of weeks and have all the essentials...I hope. Since this is my first pet, he will definitely be spoiled.
I know what you are all wondering. "Hey Bethany, aren't you allergic to cats?" Yes, this is true. But I've been spending a lot of time around 3 cats and a dog lately (since June when I moved to Logan) and I've been fine. Mostly. I do take an otc allergy pill occasionally. My two bff's John and Jeff have a house full of animals and it has inspired me to adopt a fur-baby of my own.
This actually is really big for me. I have an intense fear of commitment, so this is my first big thing. I'm committing to be there for Oliver for the rest of his life, so hopefully this will be a stepping stone for me for future relationships.
Anyway, I will probably post a lot of pictures of him here on my blog for you to all enjoy.

I can't believe you are getting a "fur-baby"! I thought you were so deathly allergic... you should get a dog instead.
Well, not deathly allergic. If I spend a lot of time around a particular animal, I seem to get less and less sensitive. I think one day I will get a dog, but since my apartment is so small and I work a lot, I thought it would be better to start with a cat. So, we'll see how it goes.
He is super cute, but I do think you're crazy. Good luck with taking care of him. I'm sure you'll be a great mommy.
