[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kittens. I say this as a dog person. Puppies are an unbelievable amount of work.[/quote]

Kittens are a huge pain! They are very active and nocturnal. Unless you are nocturnal, I do not recommend. [/quote]

Kittens are really only "very active" when they're awake, and they sleep like 20 hours a day. You have to keep an eye on them when they are awake (and part of that will be at night), but overall they're pretty easy. No potty training, no walking, etc.

Puppies are crazy difficult--I have one right now. I can't help but laugh at myself for ever thinking my kittens were any amount of work. Now my cats are like a calming presence in the home and I seek out their comfort when the puppy is driving me up the wall. [/quote]

Cats can be trained not to be nocturnal. Bathroom - put in their bed, water, litter box and toy. Remove things that might get knocked over. Cat goes in when you go to bed, learns its bedtime. We only had to do this 2 or 3 times for the cat to get it and "reset"[/quote]
