My heart is jumping all over the place about a decision to get another kitty.
Min has been gone since Sept 6. She was a black/white tuxedo (profile) She was just shy of being 10. Mikki, her littermate and sister (gray/white tuxedo)struggled with grief for awhile..her personality has definitely changed but kinda in a good way as she now cuddles with me.. she used to be only a daddy's girl since Min was close to me. Mikki is a mellow cat.. she still howls at least once in the middle of the night but it's soooo much better..it coul be just habit now..but initially it was due to no Minnie.
Someone showed me a rescue site on facebook... 2 kittens named Mickey and Mini... they both were black/white tuxes...look just like the Minnie we just lost.
It was just so "strange" and tugged at my heart. Well, the lil boy kitty Mickey was just adopted... I felt sad someone didn't take both, however... guess what..the leaves Mini. If I could see the future and know this would BENEFIT Mikki I would take this lil Mini in a heart beat! I'm just so nervous about it though. Especially since she's a kitten...would that be fair to Mikki...or would it be easier for her to get to know a kitten rather than another older cat that might seem more threatning to her? AAAACK...I hate it when this all seems just too coincidental that they were named the same and look alike!!! Tugs at the heart strings!!
