See I started out as a single cat household when I left home and moved into a flat I couldn't have a dog but I got a kitten Archie he was adorable and he became so attached he was almost dog like with a feline air - he'd bring back his toys when you threw them etc maybe he was affectionate because I "spoilt him" time wise. Then he was run over and killed before he was 1. I swore no more kittens/cats butthen heard f a kitten needing a home Cleo went to see her fell in love then saw her brother Oscar (cigarette burns on his body whiskers pulled out abused etc) a damned ugly kitten he was too
and I became a two cat household they played together games I wouldn't have invented but they did; they were company for each other but each of them became mine in a way you may not expect from a duo - I was always involved in their games through their choice I was the place of safety for each of them when scared or sleepy. So I am a one cat houehold now through choice but I think in both out heads mine and Cleo's we are still a 2 cat household.
I will be again but we will start with a clean slate kittens/adult (whatever they be) and me; new friendships to be formed and forged between us in our own unique way.
