It is hard to get a ragdoll (snapped up quick) but that is something I am considering.
I am also considering a ginger tabby as those I have met seem to be gregarious and outgoing.
I asked about fostering but (and maybe I am asking the wrong place) my local shelter doesn't foster unless it is kittens or have special needs and I work so I can't necessarily do that.
I am giving it at least a year before I get a new pet so I am in the planning stages. Hoping to execute next year.
