If you are wondering what is the right cat for you, this is the place to be. In this introductory forum we talk about topics such as breed vs. mix, size, age, grooming, breeders, shelters, rescues as well as requirements for exercise, space and care. No question is too silly here. This particular forum is for getting and giving helpful, nice advice. It is definitely not a forum for criticizing someone else's opinion, knowledge or advice. This forum is all about purring and learning.

Someone just dropped her off at my parents barn and she wont survive the cold. Looking for a home but my husband said if our house was bigger ok. SO do you think 4 is too many. We also have 2 small dogs. |  |  | |  |

| | Purred: Thu Oct 22, '09 11:06am PST | | | | | | We agree with Stormy!  It completely depends on the person. If you can provide all of the proper, required care then by all means adopt another kitty. There are 7 of us who share a home and Mommy and Daddy wouldn't have us if they couldn't properly care for us. | | | | |

| | Purred: Thu Oct 22, '09 7:40pm PST | | | | | | Well I really do like her alot named her snowflake. She is pure white medium hair cat. Who would dump a kitty like that. There would be no issues with the love part all our animals get alot of attention. They are all content sucks. As for vet bills also not an issue and whats one more mouth to feed. BUT my hubby is not on board. He likes her to but we do live in a tiny house. Very clean, litter boxes are clean twice a day at least but he just thinks it would be in the best interest of the cat if we had more space even a basement with a kitty door. She is not used to dogs yet or other cats for that matter. She is kept in the barn office right now as it is the warmest place in the barn. SO I bring my pets in. I think with time shed get used to everybody but he doesnt think its fair as theres not much space to "get away" if she wanted to. I do kind of agree. We just started looking for a home for her so we both agree to see what happens with that. If we can find a better less crowded home for her it may be better anyways. If not he may agree to take her in. Thanks just wanted to hear what others have to say. | | | | |

| | Purred: Sat Oct 24, '09 8:37am PST | | | | | | only you can answer that. if you have enough money to pay for cat food, litter, an extra litter pan, vet bills, ect. do you have the time and willpower to deal with adjusting the cats to the new one? another good question, do your cats have the willpower to deal with another cat? If they start peeing, getting agressive, ect, its a sighn there unhappy.
4-5 cats seems to be my limit before things get crazy ( i have 4 cats plus a foster cat im trying to find a home for) im on on income and have a large 2 bedroom apartment. ideally, id like to get down to 3-4. its really up to you and your household how many it can handle.
good luck | | | | |

| | Purred: Mon Oct 26, '09 2:03am PST | | | | | | I keep saying to the bf, I can't wait til we have a house in the country and can have a million cats!
That said, I had a friend in a studio apartment with two indoor only cats. Don't know how she did it, but they seemed happy enough. | | | | |
