I recommend if you're going to get one, get two. It's no cure all, and increases your responsibilities. But it can help them out, giving them some extra companionship. The downside is it does bring in more pack and dominance issues which can be annoying and hard to fix.Elizabeth S said:Part of me also wants to get 2 kittens so they can have companionship and grow up together. But perhaps going from 0 to 2 is too big a step.
In any case, I enjoy reading about your cats and the photos.
