Kitties?

Ever since Lady discovered she's no longer allergic to cats, the largest hurdle to our ever owning one has become purely a logistics issue. We live in an apartment, we're transient, and cats cost money. Plus hair, everywhere.

But but but. [livejournal.com profile] the_verb knows someone who has two kitties who need a home. And even if someone more suitable steps in for them, there are all those older cats out there who need to be adopted. Vaccines taken care of. Already litter box trained. Cute. Non-demons. And cats don't need round-the-clock supervision or running-homes to take them for a walk.

I want cats. I've wanted cats since I had a friend who had cats. It just wasn't ever going to happen 'cause my family was allergic and then Lady was allergic. But now she's not and I suppose we run the risk of her allergies coming back, but kitties! I know I am currently blinded by confirmation bias when it comes to looking at the downside of kittens. So tell me what I should be aware of, if we do end up doing this. Vet bills, yes, and that damn pet deposit. But are there other things we should be aware of?

Ultimately the decision will be made by me and Lady, but any input would help a lot.

Oh, and also, if kittens are gotten, you guys will be suffering from the flood of obligatory my-cat-is-the-cutest photos. Just FYI.
