Staci...I'm so excited for you!! A house is not a home without a dog AND a cat! At least one! How old is the cat? The younger the better for a smooth adjustment. She may hide quite a bit at first but with a gradual introduction I am sure it can work! By the way, if you do become Kylie's permanent mommy, you will then find yourself posting on the cat boards too and never get anything done, just like me!!
