100%. I'd never launch into getting an animal without doing research first and understanding the pros/cons. At this point we have 1 geriatric dog who doesn't like her routine messed with and a 7 year old dog who loves to chase and bite cats, so, we are talking like 5 to 8 years before we would get one as the current situation does not lend itself to bringing a new cat into the mix.
