I've always wanted a cat, but for a long time the timing was just not right. Lately, I have been almost obsessed with getting a kitten, I keep looking at the "free kittens" adds in the newspaper. Now that the timing is good, I have been worried about taking care of a cat. See, like many of us, my depression includes being easily overwhelmed by day to day tasks, and I have been afraid that adding a cat to the household will make things even more overwhelming. So, to see this thread and read all the positive effects of having a pet, really seems like some kind of sign (I'm a huge believer in 'signs') that maybe I am supposed to get a kitty. So, thank you all for the wonderful testimonies, it is so hard for me to make decisions like this, and these posts have definitly helped! stjames, thank you for initiating this thread! love CarolAnn
