Well, looks like the verdict is in: DH says we CAN get a kitten, but just one, and we even bought a few things today, but he does not want to get one in Florida on the trip. Says besides the money bringing it home, also just doesn't want to mess with that one more thing on the flight home. He says we can get a local kitty this summer AFTER the trip.
I do think that's probably best, but I have become used to the idea of little Keara coming home with us. I'm sure she'll have a plethora of folks wanting her though!
