Welcome! How exciting about the kitten! They are so much fun to watch -- and sooo much work! I hope that you will enjoy your new family addition!

 

You might consider getting 2 kittens, 2 aren't any more trouble then 1 and they can keep each other company and entertained.
Since they would be litter mates you'd want 2 that already get along without one being dominant over the other.
Cats are social creatures and can form life long bond with their housemate.

 

I agree - 2 cats provide company for each other and you won't feel guilty about leaving them alone when you go out.

 

Hi and welcome to the forum! I saw pictures of the kitten and aw!

 

I've been thinking about getting another cat to give my sweetie some company.
But mine is 2 yo, I'm afraid she won't like another cat in her territory...
She's afraid of small kids.

 

^Same here. I ask the shelter that I got Misa if she will get along with other cats and they told me that they don';t have a record about that. Hmm.. Maybe it doesn't hurt to try.

 

i've got 2 cats and they get along great. so i would say 2 is the best bet...single cats sometimes do get lonely

 

The first cat is always so much fun I would get 2 as well!

 

Ooooh congratulations I'm jealous

 

How exciting! Sounds like you have plenty of room and plenty of time to take care of a new kitty! Can't wait to see pics!

 

Aww kittens are so cute! I know you will have fun with him!

 

We actually brought her home Monday afternoon. We wanted a boy, but he turned out to be a girl... or our daughter picked the boys twin sister, either way.. her name is Penny & we love her to pieces!
