It's a give-and-take kind of decision-making process. If I go with a kitten, I have the chance to shape his/her personality (at least somewhat), have a longtime companion, etc. But I have to deal with the potential for kitten spazziness. :) With an older cat (depending on age), I will have to do a lot more research into how he/she behaves, as the personality will be ingrained and less malleable. And there's a chance that he/she will reject the living situation I have to offer because it's not the norm based on experience. Also, medical bills and other age-related costs will come along sooner, and I will have less time overall with him/her. But there would be calm and laziness! I may have a secondary plan in place. Stay tuned after Birmingham... I have thought about an older cat. It’s a give-and-take kind of decision-making process.

They are typically lots more mellow than kittens. Have you looked into getting an older cat. They are typically lots more mellow than kittens.

Some cats actually enjoy the water, contrary to all those silly feline stereotypes. :) Oh, yeah, I wouldn’t worry about that.
