My kitty passed away on the 16th. Of course, it's been really hard.

I know I need another kitty soon. I can't decide if I should get 2 kittens or try to get a young adult (around 1 year) that doesn't mind being alone with me. I know 2 cats mean twice the fur, the food, the litter, etc. Plus, I do love the bond created by only having one cat.

The kitties would be around 8 weeks old so I know they need a companion while I'm at work.

Any thoughts?

[@perceptivel] 😢sorry for the loss of your cat some see it as just a pet but they are more than that a friend and companion who you loved dearly

@smiler2012 He was my companion. Thank you.

You should get one, at least you would have a new companion that would express unconditional love and be there for emotional support

Get 2 young kittens, twice the comedy.😸😸 I've had a few at a time grow up together, seems like one of them will end up being a lap cat. Litter mates will usually pair up on their own with their favorite mate, so choose the 2 that are cuddled up together instead of choosing based on color or something else. It can save on stress for you and the cats.
Kitten photos are expected, we want to see.🤓

In addition to our 12 yr old dog, we now have a 7 month old Maine Coon. Since we both work, he now has a 3 month old Maine Coon brother.

They definitely have fun together. They’re also quite social, much like dogs. They actively seek your company, attention and love being part of the family. They’re also fun because they’re fairly large as males.

You could adopt from a shelter as well, those cats need a home also

I have one but that's your choice as to how destructive they be lol you know cats will get into every thing

@Lilnonames Right... it's been a long time since I had a younger baby to even remember that. My child was 16.
