I love cats and enjoyed the pictures. I'm just not good enough at housekeeping to have one inside. I don't like to sit in a chair and then have cat hair on my clothes. Some people are so neat and clean you would never know there was a cat in their house, but I'm not that organized. I've had outside cats but they don't live as long. My daughter has a great solution. She lets her cat outside in the daytime, brings him inside each evening and puts him on a leash attached to the leg of the coffee table. He gets loved and petted a few hours, then goes to the closed in porch for the night.
