>Had to put cat down
>Was a wreck for a while, still can't bring it up without choking up
>Debating on getting one or two catters following this
>What I really like with cats is just how they always chill around me/cuddle on me (I'm a straight male, go figure)
>Got one for now, fast forward a year, I love her and she's a great cat but a lot more on the hyper end that I like to deal with and doesn't cuddle as much as I'd like her to; obviously that's just her personality (and she's still young) and I'm not complaining
>Thinking of getting a second for cuddling/chilling purposes when she doesn't want to also to keep her busy when I don't feel like playing
I have a couple questions;
1. I really just like sharing a strong bond with a cat and feel like that bond wouldn't be nearly as strong if I'm splitting it with another cat; is this nonsense? Up until recently I had two dogs (put one down last saturday, I'll save the sob story and details) but couldn't get nearly as close to them as I could with cats. It's hard to explain but I just like how there's a relationship of "me and them" and don't know if a second cat would kind of mess that up. I feel like I won't be able to get attached to two nearly as well as I could with one
2. Is my first cat just going to end up spending time with the second cat instead of me? I like how cats actually WANT to spend a lot of time with me and this could either result in fighting for my affection or ignoring me

I know this sounds stupid, but I'm introverted and don't spend a lot of time around people and cat bros make me fine with that (without them I'd still not really want to be around people a lot), they're what I like turning to when I have a hard day, not girlfriends or friends. As this is going to be a rather big part of my life for 10-20 years I'm doing this carefully

it's really impossible to say because cats very much have their own personalities and preferences, especially when it comes to interacting with other animals and people.

your cat might end up hating another cat, or your new cat might hate your current cat. really tough to say! you're just not going to know until you give it a shot.

Have you looked into specific breeds? Because Tonkinese are probably perfect for you.

>>2360586
If that happens I'm dumping the second cat on my parents but you are right, just seeing if anyone has any input from experience
>>2360595
No and it's not like I'm looking to replace my cat. I'll probably just do what I did last time and find some domestic shorthair from a rescue agency

>inb4 butthurt anti cat fags
Just ignore them if they post, they are just butthurt mammal fags that hate cats because some of them eat mice and "muh moouse is cuter than ur cat lol xd catfag"
>>
>>2360598
It's more that they put no effort into getting a cat to like them then wonder why the cat doesn't like them since dogs are whores and will [literally and figuratively] slobber all over anyone. Tends to be more just guys insecure with their masculinity who need a big, manly animal to compensate.

Nothing against dogs themselves, just the owners tend to get them for the wrong reasons

I just had to put my cat down today, about 12 hours ago. I paid a vet to come to my house and euthanize him in my lap. 15 years I've known that boy. He was an asshole sometimes but he had real personality. I only get really sad about it when I see his little beanie baby toys he would carry around and be so embarrassed about when he was caught with.
