I'm so sorry, Princess. Hugs and love to you [emoji813]
I suggest starting with a local animal shelter and asking about young kittens. When you get a kitten from a shelter, it has to be examined by a veterinarian, and spayed and given its first shots, before it can be adopted. Take your daughter with you to see what's available. Most likely she will be drawn to one or more of them, whether for its color or behavior. Also ask the people at the shelter what supplies you will need.My daughter is pressuring me to get a kitty. Any advice? How do you chose one? How do you know if it's healthy? I don't even know what questions to ask. Please help

It's fine that your daughter wants a pet, but do you want one in the house? You need to be as open to the idea of a pet as she is. After all, if you get a kitty cat, and you don't really like cats, sure as rain that feline will consider you his/her very favorite human.My daughter is pressuring me to get a kitty. Any advice?

^^^THIS!^^^ Charlie, if your daughter fosters a kitty and she finds out that a pet is for her, the shelter is always happy to have a "foster fail". If your daughter finds out that a kitty/cat isn't as much fun as she thought (it IS work, after all), the shelter will take the kitty back and see if they can find another foster family.
