You have no idea what motherhood is going to be like and a baby is going to be hard wnoough. If you have had a cat before you can adopt one in a DC shelter the same day. We adopted a 9 year old cat from the one on GA avenue and she is the best cat ever. Very mellow and very loving. I knew others would probably go for kittens but I wanted a mature cat. We love her!
Have you read any of the numerous posts about how pets are neglected/resented after baby is born? I adored my cat until my baby was born and then....it was just someone else with needs that sucked away what little time I had to myself. Please consider waiting until after baby is born. If baby is fussy, colicky a bad sleeper you will want to murder kitteh if it wakes you up at 5am after baby was up from 2-4am for the 30th night in a row....
