I hope you get a pet soon. I'm a cat person. These two I have now (profile picture) are bad, bad, bad. Claw the couch, climb curtains, wake me up. But I couldn't be without them. Do you own your own place or do you have to have permission for pets? I'm in the process of buying a manufactured home. One thing was I didn't want to get stuck in a senior apartment where I was told I could only have one pet. Most take pets but there are often restrictions.Hi everyone. I'm new at this website. Any suggestions? I'm retired and do many crafts, sewing,diamond paintings....and more things. Looking for a small dog for companionship. Or a cat, which I never have had in house, any suggestions? Dog or cat? Hope someday to make friends on here and meet for lunch. I am widowed and it can get very lonely at times esp. now during coved. I am in the Pittsburgh area. Thank you.
