2 questions, not sure if right subforum
I adopted a short hair american black female cat when she was 2. I lived alone in an apartment for about 2 years with her, just the 2 of us. I worked 6 hours a day 5 days a week. Then I got layed off and had to move to my parents house and took the cat with me. its been 6 years with me my 2 parents, and the cat at my parents place. so shes 10 now.
I'm getting a new job and might move out at some point back to my own apartment (thinking about it).
question 1: will she be sad living away from my parents in a different house, and also being alone 8 hours a day 5 days a week? where shes so used to living in a bigger house with me and 2 parents, and someone always being home with her?
question 2: I was thinking, if I do move out, maybe I'd get a second, younger cat? like another 2 year old cat to keep her company? I've read that older cats who are used to being single cats might not like a younger cat suddenly sharing their territory.
Any ideas?
