How important is colour to you when choosing a pet?

I've actually heard of people wanting pets to match with their carpet is this normal?! Does colour play an important part to you when choosing a new pet?

I think that if you take a look at our pets, you can see that colour is of very little importance to us. Most important issues here are that our pets are in good health and their character.
Of course there are colours that appeal to me more than others, but in the end that is not what decides whether we go for a kitten or not.

I can understand that people who really fall in love with a cat in a certain colour, and that they absolutely want to own a cat with that same colour; but what I do not understand, is people choosing a cat to match the furniture... How crazy is that?!:eek:

I would say no, surely it is the one that bonds with you? what happens when you change the carpet? you change the cat??? thats mad!

I have to agree with you girls. But I have seen programs and also heard people wanting to have pets to match their decor, and these people also are the ones that declaw their cats.

But its a shame that people actually do this, I mean I dont know about you but I dont think much of people who use their pets as accessories, for instance celebs (dogs in handbags), people who dresses their dogs/cats in the most humiliating way, and they think its cute. But I guess thats another topic lol.
