A few things:
- I would recommend a small water gun instead of a spray bottle for reprimanding kitty. It has a longer range and it packs a little more punch.
- If the cat pees on your carpet, it's not a HUGE deal, but if it pees on your couch it can seep through the fabric and into the cushions and stuff and stink the joint up.
- Make sure you and your roommate are being realistic about the time and finances you'll need to devote to the cat. If you're both in class all day, if you have part time jobs, etc, will you be able to train the cat and make sure it's not messing everything up? My roommate wanted a cat a few months ago and it took me a really long time to convince her it was a bad idea since we weren't around a lot.
