Do You Think It A Good Idea To Give Someone Your Own Pet For Christmas

[Guest nvzbl]

I have a young cat named Casper. (my third one I've named Casper)
Well its a very very nice cat. But doesnt listen all too well. Wants to make up her own rules. But she is very special and loves me very much. And is very much spoiled. Ive havent had her for very long. She is still kinda of a kitten. i saved her from the street. My son (Lexus) likes her. But i was going to give her to my son because i think their personalities match better. I dont see my kids as much anymore. (long story in the middle of custody/visitation battle) But i'm going to tell him he can have her, i will take care of her for him, but he can have her forever!

Being the recipient of such a cat, I don't see it as being so bad. My uncle gave us his Maine Coon as a wedding/Christmas present (we got married 1 week before Christmas, 2005). He couldn't care for Cosmo as well any more since they were renovating the house and traveling a lot, and I loved the cat, so it worked out well for us both.

Depends how the pet will be served - stir fried or oven baked?

The rarer the better.

Katie thinks so too.

You should not give your children pets unless it is okay with their mother (and you have checked first). What good is a pet to your child if it lives with you and not him?

I agree. I'd be pretty ticked off if someone gave my child an animal as a gift and didn't ask me first (especially if it were a cat because I'm allergic).

I know that. That is why you should not give your son a pet without his mother's okay. Even if you believe your son is old enough to care for it himself, you would be introducing an animal into his mother's home. She may not want one. Ultimately, it's up to her.
