I've been considering getting a kitten or two lately, and am hoping to do so in the next few weeks. Anyway, I do work full time and I was somewhat worried about a single kitten getting lonely while I was gone, and started considering adopting a pair of kittens. I have the financial means to take care of a whole littler if I were able to, but there is a number restriction where I live, so I can't have more than two new additions.
Anyway, my concern is primarily for the kitten, as I want to give it/them a happy, healthy, home. Due to this I am somewhat worried about my kitten getting lonely while I'm away at work and wanted a possible companion to keep them company while I'm gone. On the other hand, I worry that by getting a pair of kittens I may face difficulties in bonding with my kitten(s) due to the fact that they may bond to each other and not me.
So, what do you think? Should I just get the one and form a close bond with it, or should I get a pair?
