Hello, I know hope this question doesn't sound too bad. I'm aware it's selfish but I still hope for some advice! Please be nice, haha )
I have a year old male cat and recently I've been thinking about getting another one and I'm worried my 'old' cat won't pay me any attention anymore? I wouldn't say he's exceptionality affectionate but he's quite friendly. He comes to be be petted (and to knead my stomach) a few times a day and he likes to lay on me sometimes. He usually sleeps alone but a few times a week he likes to sleep close to me on the bed. He's not a huge cuddler but he likes to be in the same room as me. He's not really affectionate with my partner or anyone else.
So basically I was wondering if my cat stop paying attention to me once he has a new friend? Now don't get me wrong, I would love for him to get along with the new cat (if I get one)! I know some cats don't get along that well and I would absolutely love for them to play together and cuddle together if they get along that well. But his affection and our daily petting sessions are important to me and I don't want to lose that. He's been my little buddy for months now and I love him to pieces.
Does anyone has any experience with this? Thank you )
(Also I'm aware this type of thinking might be illogical but I have bad anxiety and sometimes it gets the best of me).
