Hi,
I live in a one bedroom apartment, and currently have 2 cats - Bugsy (2), and Lucky (1). I went to Petsmart today, and my heart was broken into pieces - there was this black 2yr old DSH GORGEOUS female, who has been there sitting in that cage by the window for the last 3 weeks... She seemed so sweet... Her coat was unbelievably shiny... The sign said she is a little shy, which is my cup of tea - Lucky was very shy, and Bugsy is a little bit too. I asked them, and she is not going to be returned to the Shelter - thank God! - in case she isn't adopted, she will go to another store, and if needed back to the rescuer.
I really can't afford right now, as I am unemployed... But I was thinking about adopting another one once I get a job. Both Lucky and Bugsy have insurance, which helps a lot in case of a disease or an emergency - Bugsy has dental issues, that are not covered, so my "kitty budget" will be full for a little while.
I am also wondering how many kitties I could have comfortably in a one bedroom apartment. I work (not now, as I am unemployed) at home, so I have lots of time to work with the new kitty... There are so many kitties who need a second chance at life, I would love to save another one...
So, for you who live in one bedroom apartments, how many cats do you have, and what do you do you advise?
Lucky and Bugsy get along very well, so I think that it's better if the third one is a kitten, but I am not sure.
Thanks!s
