>>82878 The spaying thing can't be emphasised enough. If you have a male and a female, you'll be overwhelmed with cats faster than you would ever think it possible. From a health stand-point; unfixed females are prone to uterine tumours, males are prone to urinary problems. If you don't allow your cats outside (as I don't),fleas are hardly an issue at all unless it does get out (and there are no other animals in the house that do go out). Playtime? Kittens will play with anything, but cords are not always possible to keep completely out of their way. They do repond to discipline and are not nearly as stupid as most people think that they are. I have had literally hundreds of cats (no exaggeration, anybody want one?), and a lot of cords and I have never had one actually bite through an electrical wire. Wires don't move around a lot and they prefer things that do. Forget "bought at market" cat-toys, they will most likely ignore them. A string with a noisy object(s) tied on the end will amuse them for weeks. If you buy milk in the kind of bottles that have a plastic sealing ring on the cap, the circular bit that you throw away has always been my cats' favorite toys. I have taught many of them to fetch using one. They're easy for the cat to bat around, get a grip on, and they roll.
