Default Easy solution....

Adopt a kitty. They are so much less trouble and maintenance and can be just as lovable as a dog. I have had 4 (3 persians and 1 himilayan) in the past and have 2 now. They follow me around room to room, wait at the door (or in the kitchen window) for me to come home, curl up on either the top of the chair or couch or on the footrest when I'm watching television. If you have two they get plenty of exercise just chasing each other around and heaven help us when I bring out the laser pointer...they go wild! I think in another life one of them may actually have been a dog and then got wise to how much easier cats really have it! I did have a dog for 17 years but he passed away in 2008 and living where I do now it was never a problem. However, since I intend to become a full time Villager in the next year I don't think I want the hassles you all are experiencing.....I'll just keep it simple and keep my kitties!
