[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have to defend male cats because I've had four of them and not a single one has ever sprayed. Sure, some of them do but in my experience it's never been a problem with a neutered male. I actually find male cats to be much more loving than females so since having my first male cat as a teenager I've only had males since.

Also, the cats on www.mycatisadick.com are not nightmares. If you think that's nightmare behavior then you shouldn't have a cat.

Cats are not dogs so they won't come when you call them (although I have one that does), they aren't going to obey your every command and they probably won't rush to the door to greet you when you come home. Cats provide affection and love on their own schedule and sometimes that's at 3am.

I strongly disagree with the PP who suggested using a breeder. There are so many rescue cats and kittens needing homes that I think it's irresponsible to use a breeder. You can choose a rescue in a foster home to get a better sense of personality.[/quote]

I agree - I would adopt two adult rescue cats who have lived together and get along.  (Even two who have not lived together may get along; the rescue can help you determine that.)

I disagree with the PP who said one cat is fine - two is much better than one, for company and overall feline mental-health/well-being.[/quote]
