I think it is easier to intergrate a young tom cat into a household with older she's than to introduce another female. Six months is a young age although I to have my doubts as to that being correct as he look extremely large for that age I would doubt you would have a problem. But you never know. It would probably make more sense in getting to little uns together. This fella may be too rough for a little kitten to play with. Good luck with whatever you decide. |

I'd love to say GO FOR IT! He is very beautiful, but my experiences over the last 3 months say go with your gut instincts. You know you animals better than anyone and would have a pretty good idea as how they would react to this new comer. I wish you luck as its a toughie |

Really hard decision; a very outgoing kitten may be able to win over the older girls...all I can say is repeat what the others said, go with your gut |

Thanks everyone. Apart from saying 'rumble', as I haven't had breakfast yet, my gut says lovely but leave him. Wait for the babies - they'll be here soon enough. Hope the blue boy finds a nice home. (If I had kittens and was finding homes for them, I would not let them go to a home with children who had never lived with a cat before. Childrens' allergies are cited so often as a reason for a 'just bigger than kitten' needing a new home.) |

he is lovely, although I would be tempted to leave him as he may be too playful for your older girls, so two kittens would be better as they have each other for company. i can certainly understand why your husband is drawn to him though - I am hoping to foster a semi/longhair this year so I can find out if my allergies can cope, as I adore them but don't want to risk it permanently until I have 'tested it'!! |
