When my son was born, we gave our cat to the next door neighbor. She visited us outside everyday, but ate and slept at their house. I was scared she might lay on or scratch him. Turns out he did have an allergic reaction to her. Better scaredy, than sorry.

We have a beta fish. My son wanted it for his 6th birthday. I hate fish, but agreed to let him have it. The novelty wore off in about 2 weeks, and now the fish is my little buddy. I'm not sure my son even remembers he has one.

Yes, I remember doing the same sort of thing when I was a kid. I would get really excited about getting a pet but then I would usually get bored of it pretty quick. At least when it was a fish or something like that. I did love my cat!

We have a dog (a lab mix) and two cats. But we got a cat for my daughter's third birthday, so we will have to do the same for our son's third birthday!

I really want two more kids! And that means two more animals. But I am trying to sell my son on a hermit crab or something. And I can't do rodents or reptiles/amphibians. I could do a turtle. But it is hard because my daughter got to pick. I could handle another cat maybe. Or even a smaller dog. We'll see!

We have a Persian cat. When my child was under 2 years then we had no problem, the cat didn`t disturb him and he didn`t disturb the cat.
But now we have like a hell in home and I`m thinking about giving the cat to my mother. Oliver just bugging the cat and she isn`t very happy about it.
