Cats for Busy Professionals: How to Make It Work
A full-time job is no barrier to a happy cat — pick a resilient mixed-breed (or adopt), and if your hours are long, take home two littermates so they keep each other company through the day.

Watch for the telltale signs (restlessness, vocalizing, spraying, vulvar swelling) and have your cat fixed before the first heat if you don't plan to breed.
