A cat is a suitable pet for many families but is an expensive, big and long term commitment. It is therefore not a pet that a child can be expected to be solely responsible for and will need an adult carer.

It is important to consider other pets in the household and all family members. Some cats may not take well to small children pulling them about and it should be remembered that the cat is a natural hunter of birds and small animals.
