If you’re not exactly a dog person, but you still want to have a pet to call your own, why not try getting a cat? Next to man’s best friend, the feline is one of the most common household pets homeowners opt to have. For those of you who are looking into picking a cat as your furry friend, FN lists 12 breeds you might want to look into in the gallery below, as well as general descriptions of the cats' temperaments and needs.
However, please note that while you may opt to buy your kittens from a pet store or breeder, another option is to adopt your pet from a shelter--this way, you'll be giving a homeless animal a much-needed, loving home.
