I miss my cat

[Kazz]

Now I do not want this thread to turn morbid... just a warning.

But I miss my cat the BIG question is do I miss Cleo / Oscar personality wise...they were like comfy shoes I knew and they knew everything I was going to do and vice versa so do I miss just that and will get over it, and leave it be?

Or do I miss having the company of a cat?

1st question; is (and I do not have any answers yet, hence the thread) Do I want to introduce myself to another cat or two (they/he/she would have to really be kitten(s) because of the dogs)

2nd question; if I do, do I get two boys two girls, boy and girl?

3rd (less important)what colour?

If you could start again which is what I am in effect doing, what would you chose, 1 - 2 boys/girls/mix both?

Awww Kazz- of course you do ((hugs))

But, to answer your practical questions - take the line of least resistance - 2 boy kittens, maybe 16 - 18 week ones that the CP/cat home are 'stuck' with (grr). So easy, will take only a day to get used to your girls, no problems amusing each other ............................... and be prepared to be amazed. They're different from grown cats you know? (Do you own a pair of shin pads?)

Okay why 16/18 weeks and why boys? although I know the answer to both I think

Okay Smudgley what does your branch have at the moment ....actually scrub that I am on holiday for 2 weeks in Sept so maybe after that middle september?

Its only natural Kazz (((((()))))) hugs.

It all depends on what you want. Do you want a young kitten? an older kitten (a few months) Do you want a pedigree? I think you were hankering for a Siamese at on time.
You have a blank canvass.

You are bound to miss your cats, both their individual personalities and also 'just' feline company in general. I do not know what to advise r.e. possible new additions but I do wish you the very best of luck in making your decision

Awww Kazz I know how you feel.

I have never been not never will be without cats. As you know I have one boy (about 8 years old) and a female who is aobut 3 years old. They make a perfect couple and it is great having a female and male cat. As you get the best of both worlds.

I am sure it won't be long until you get some more.

16/18 weeks because they get overlooked for the tinier kittens. Also more robust and can survive Staffie love! Boys just because I think they are simpler souls - just want food and loving! Cheaper to neuter and you can get them both done on the same day and they'll be fine next morning.
