Should I get another cat ?
Posted: Thu Mar 11, 2021 5:08 am
One of my cats died last December unexpectedly. My other cat has now become super affectionate and seeks attention a lot of the time.
Even if he has been sleeping all night with me, when I wake up he is seeking attention like I have not been there at all.
In general the amount of attention he is now demanding is almost irritating
I cannot decide if he has 'come out of the shadow' of the other cat or if he is missing his own kind. Throughout his life he had always known the company of the other cat and they were quite close. (The cat that died was the dominant one though)
I have an ideal upcoming opportunity to introduce another cat as I maybe moving home shortly so the 'territorial issues' might not arise.
