Palestrina, do you have any friends with cats? Maybe taking your little guy over to visit might be a more relaxing experience. Hopefully someone you know will have an outgoing, friendly kitty.

Thank you to everyone with constructive advice! We are not deterred, we will have our pet one day! Tai, this is our plan exactly. We will visit as much as we can and get out little boy used to kitties first. Luckily I just ran into a neighbor who offered us a visit to her home to meet her cat.
