Hi everyone! I’ve been doing my best to give this a lot of research, but figured some opinions won’t hurt!
Now Morgana is a bit older and showing signs of wanting companionship (at the time, I was unaware that getting two kittens was best, otherwise I would have taken her and her only other littermate and I feel bad about that….), you should see her when I play kitten noises! She runs over and nuzzles the phone and looks for them, even if she’s downstairs! I also feel it’ll be good for her as it’s just me and Morgs at home which will be beneficial during my very occasional long work days. She’s now almost two and is calming down significantly so I feel much more confident.
Morgana is a 1.5 year old tortie, crossbreed between a British Shorthair and Ragdoll - ideally, I’ll be looking for a cat with a similar personality to her - playful, outgoing, spunky! As hopefully, they can bounce some of this never ending energy off one another! I will do my best to rescue but it will likely be another kitten as sadly, since I live on my own and work a lot of rescues just won’t consider me for that reason, despite having a flexible working pattern now Unless it’s a private situation, just wish it wasn’t so hard for me to be approved for rescues from shelters.
Been reading lots of different sources if it’s better to have a male introduced to an established female or get another female? I know I can’t predict how introduction will go (I’ve been extensively researching and very confident, new room set up ready (not looking for another couple of months but being prepared!), blankets to swap to get used to scents, supervised interaction etc. Just was hoping if you guys could share some experience? Some sources say it doesn’t matter, others say get one or the other!
Thank you! Here’s Morgs herself for your cat tax. Sorry, not sorry for constant picture updates.
