Cats are the up-front and the ongoing cost, and you never know if one’s going to like you until it’s too late, as opposed to liking a birdie-snack.
I manage to talk myself out of getting a cat every time I’ve almost talked myself into it! LOL!
Some days, the birds are more than I can handle and they are very low maintenance. So adding a cat to the house would be unfair to the cat.
I’m going to go lie down now, but I will make a drive-by post or two before I shut down for the night.
