Would I be the drama for asking to get another cat?

My family's sphynx cat was put down within the last 24 hours due to heart failure.

Everyone is still grieving.

A part of me wants to get another cat. So I started looking for sellers and found sphynx kittens near my area.

I have not raised or been with kittens as an adult. I barely remember being around kittens when I was a child.

I plan on doing more research (how to take care of the specific breed, things to be aware of, other needs and instructions for proper health and care) before asking my family, who I still live with, if it would be okay for me to purchase a kitten. Not to replace our previous cat, but because I want a cat. I'm a cat person.

Though it may also be that my grief is influencing that desire to have a cat.

I also don't plan on getting one until after a planned trip/vacation in November since I won't be able to bring it with me and I don't want to leave it alone or in someone else's care while it is still getting accustomed to my family and house.

Would I be the drama for telling my family that I am thinking of getting another cat?

Sorry for any poor grammar.
