Re: Together or a Gap?


Hmmm, what a shame I missed this illuminating thread last night.
I think the easiest way is two together Kazz. We can't map out the future exactly (ask Rabbie Burns 'The best laid plans of mice and men gang oft tae gae awry' - or similar ) and you can't say what the future of this/these one/two/threee kits wil be. Or whether there will be later additions .....
Don't break your brain planning too hard - que sera sera, I think.
Whoever you get will be very lucky.

Decide with your heart, who knows what the future will bring.

Re: Together or a Gap?


This is one funny thread ladies - you are all mad!!!!

I, personally, would get two together Kazz. I think that would be better for the cats, as they will have each other. You will never know what the future holds, so you can't plan for it. Just go with your heart. If you fall in love with a whole litter.................take the lot!!!

Re: Together or a Gap?


I would get two together just because two who need housing together are harder to house as people only look for one cat at a time (well more often than not) and if you can house two that would be great for those who can't be seperated.

Sorry if someone has said this before and I haven't quoted them to agree but I haven't read everyone's posts

I would definitely go with 2 (or 10, like me). They are great fun to watch together and are company for each other when the house is empty. I always prefer my babies to go in two's.

Re: Together or a Gap?


Having had experience both ways I have found getting 2 together:
They settle in much faster
They are better than any show on tv to watch
They are company for each other so never lonely when you are not around
You can be almost certain they will accept each other readily

However:

They tend to bond more with eath other rather than you
Twice the vet bills for jabs, spaying e.t.c.
Although 2 isn't really any more 'trouble' than one
